An address translation unit for use in a computer system having a multi-virtual space comprises a full associative translation lookaside buffer (TLB) which includes, for each entry, an associative memory array which stores and compares addresses. The associative memory array is provided with a circuit which, when a specific value is set in a common area field, invalidates comparison in a space number field.

A static memory cell is connected with word lines and data lines. First and second switches are connected in series between a data line and an output circuit. A sense amplifier has an input/output terminal connected to a common connection point of the said first and second switches. The first switch is turned off in synchronism with commencing operation of the sense amplifier such that the parasitic capacitance of the data line as viewed from the sense amplifier decreases. The second switching means is turned on a predetermined time later in order to transmit the output signal of the sense amplifier to the output circuit.

In a cache memory setup, a buffer register is provided to accommodate the data read from a data memory. Between the buffer register and the data memory is connected a selector. This selector selectively transfers to the buffer register part of the data read from the data memory. The remaining part of the data is replaced with appropriate data for transfer to the buffer register. This arrangement provides the cache memory with a partial-write function.

A magnetic bubble memory has a plurality of minor loops for storing data represented by magnetic bubble sequences, a write line for transferring write data to couple them to the minor loops and a read line for transferring read data to a bubble detector. The read line is coupled to a plurality of auxiliary loops through replicators and the auxiliary loops are coupled to the minor loops through replicators. The data replicated to the auxiliary loops are read out.

The present invention provides an improved method and apparatus for driving a magnetic bubble device, in which a d-c voltage supply and drive coils are connected to a bridge circuit consisting of four bi-directional switches, and alternating currents with steps (such as currents consisting of triangular waves or trapezoidal waves) are produced in the drive coils by suitably controlling the turn on or off of the bi-directional switches. As a result, the d-c level in the alternating current is not shifted by the variation in width of pulses which control the opening and closing of the bi-directional switches, and the magnetic bubble device is provided with a greatly improved operation margin.

In a magnetic bubble memory device in which magnetic bubbles are propagated under influence of a rotating magnetic field, a method of controlling a stop operation of a rotating magnetic field in which magnetic field is caused to further rotate beyond the stop direction for a predetermined over-rotation angle and is then caused to return to the stop direction which is followed by the removal of the magnetic field, is presented. The over-rotation angle is in a range of 10 to 40 degrees. The invention is applicable whether bubble drive is performed using a drive current of triangular, square or trapezoidal waveform.

A series resonance drive circuit for a magnetic bubble memory comprises a magnetic bubble memory chip or chips, X and Y coils arranged orthogonally to each other to form a rotating magnetic field in a plane of the chip or chips, resonance capacitors connected in series with the X and Y coils to form series resonance circuits with the X and Y coils at a frequency of the rotating magnetic field, A.C. power supplies connected to the resonance circuit, and a reactance device connected to the resonance circuits to compensate a mutual inductance due to a mutual inductive coupling between the X and Y coils and a capacitance due to a capacitive coupling between the X and Y coils. The reactance device includes a mutual inductance device, or an inductance device and a capacitance device.

A phase locked loop (PLL) circuit is provided to operate in a broad band, including two separate loops one of which is for feed-back of an output from an oscillator to the same oscillator through its associative proportional control unit and the other of which is for feed-back of an output of an oscillator to the same oscillator via an integral control unit. The proportional control unit is arranged to control an output frequency of the oscillator and is operable to generate a control signal based on a difference between input and output signals. The integral control unit is arranged to control the phase of an output signal of the oscillator to thereby generate a control signal based on a phase difference between input and output signals.
