摘要:
An integrated circuit is disclosed in which a plurality of semiconductor substrates are stacked in such a manner that an insulating board, provided with (1) structure, such as grooves, for transmitting a coolant so as to dissipate heat, and (2) an electrical interconnection member for electrically connecting adjacent semiconductor substrates, is sandwiched between semiconductor substrates. In order to attain the high-speed signal transmission between a semiconductor substrate and an insulating board, a signal current flows not only in a main surface of the semiconductor substrate but also in directions perpendicular to the main surface. The insulating board may be formed of an insulating silicon carbide plate which has a plurality of grooves filled with a metal.

A cooling structure for cooling a multichip module for effectively removing heat generated from integrated circuit chips. A suction plate formed with minute grooves on one of its surfaces is disposed between each integrated circuit chip and an associated cooling block and is brought into contact at a grooved surface with the integrated circuit chip through a layer of a liquid such as silicone oil interposed therebetween, thereby producing negative hydrostatic pressure by capillary action of the minute grooves. The suction plate has a thickness small enough to be bent under influence of the negative hydrostatic pressure to follow a warping of the integrated circuit chip, so that the clearance between the opposing surfaces of the suction plate and the integrated circuit chip can be minimized. Thus, an integrated circuit chip cooling device of surface-to-surface contact type operable with a low thermal resistance is provided, which can improve the maintainability and reliability without sacrificing the cooling efficiency.

A semiconductor integrated circuit device has, in one embodiment, a pair of signal transmission lines formed over and insulated from a semiconductor substrate, a first circuit formed in the semiconductor substrate and electrically connected with one end of the pair of signal transmission lines for sending an electric signal, and a second circuit formed in the semiconductor substrate and electrically connected with the other end of the pair of signal transmission lines for receiving the electric signal propagating over the transmission line pair. A control resistance is electrically connected between the pair of transmission lines at the above-mentioned other end for controlling a delay time of the signal propagating over the pair of signal transmission lines between the opposite ends of the pair of signal transmission lines.

An information processing system includes a plurality of functional blocks (neurons) and a data bus for transmitting in common the outputs of the individual functional blocks (neurons). Data transaction among the functional blocks (neurons) is performed through the data bus on the time-division basis. For preventing the outputs from conflicting or competition, addresses are assigned to the individual blocks (neurons), respectively, so that only the functional blocks (neuron) having the own address designated by the address signal supplied through an address bus outputs data signal onto the data bus, while the other functional blocks (neurons) receive the information on the data bus as the signal originating in the functional block whose address is designated at that time point. The addresses are sequentially changed. During a round of the address signals, data are transmitted from given functional blocks (neurons) to other given functional blocks (neurons).

A laminated multilayer electric circuit is comprised of wafers having each internal electric circuits and laminated one after another. A signal transfer circuit used in the laminated multilayer electric circuit for transfer of signals between the wafers through an electrostatic capacitor has a receiving circuit of sufficiently high input resistance for receiving a signal from a capacitance electrode forming the electrostatic capacitor, and a circuit for clamping the level of the signal substantially within the input amplitude for the receiving circuit. The signal transfer circuit permits the signal transfer to be performed not through a flip-flop or the like and consequently at high speeds.

An FPGA needs extremely large numbers of switches in its wiring architecture and therefore shows low logic density and low operating speed. This tendency becomes increasingly evident with high integration FPGAs. 3-dimensional FPGAs are getting attention for potential improvements in their operating speed and logic density. However, 3-dimensional integration processes have poor yield and are difficult to adapt for the production of devices with fine features. In addition, difficulty in heat radiation imposes limits on the number of stacks. The present invention exploits advantages of the 3-dimensional FPGA to deliver FPGAs with high speed/high integration and which resolves difficulty in manufacturing processes. The present invention solves problems by proposing a design method for an FPGA in which a high dimensional FPGA switch topology is embedded in a lower dimensional integrated circuit and a semiconductor integrated circuit including an FPGA in which a high dimensional FPGA switch topology is embedded in a lower dimensional integrated circuit.

A parallel folding apparatus of a folding machine comprises a first cylinder in contact with a second cylinder. A guide plate guides a signature transported on the lower circumferential surface of the second cylinder after being double-folded by grippers of the second cylinder in cooperation with knives of the first cylinder. The guide plate comprises a stationary guide located downstream, in the rotating direction, of the point of contact between the first cylinder and the second cylinder and disposed continuously along the circumferential surfaces of the first cylinder and the second cylinder, and a moving guide movable in accordance with the operating speed of the folding machine between a position, closer to the circumferential surface of the first cylinder than the stationary guide, and a position, more remote from the circumferential surface of the first cylinder than the stationary guide.
