摘要:
A data processing system including a processor LSI and a DRAM divided into banks, for increasing a ratio of using a fast operation mode for omitting transfer of a row address to the DRAM and for minimizing the amount of logics external to the processor LSI. The processor LSI includes row address registers for holding recent row addresses corresponding to the banks. The contents of the row address registers are compared with an accessed address by a comparator to check for each bank whether the fast operation mode is possible. As long as the row address does not change in each bank, the fast operation mode can be used, thus making it possible to speed up operations, for example in block copy processing.

In order to allow prefetching of pointer-type data structure, an instruction word of load instruction has pointer hints indicating that the data being loaded by the instruction comprises a pointer specifying the address of the next data. When a CPU executes such an instruction, and the data requested by that instruction is loaded from a main memory, a prefetch circuit in a memory interface circuit uses this pointer to read a block containing the data specified by this pointer from the main memory, then stores temporarily in a prefetch buffer provided therein. When CPU executes a load instruction requesting reading of the data specified by this pointer, the data in this stored block is supplied to CPU through a processor interface circuit and a cache control circuit.

A processor for use in a data processing system with a cache RAM and main memory has a control pin for deactivating the driving of the data bus without deactivating that of the address bus during a write cycle. This capability is useful during a cache storing operation following a miss for performing a write operation without the requirement of additional address storing circuitry. In particular, during a cache storing operation, the processor can drive the address bus while control of the data bus by the processor is floated. Then, the data in main memory can be put on the data bus and transferred into the cache memory. Once the data is transferred to the cache memory, the original write operation can be completed.

An image reading apparatus includes a scanner part reading an original on a contact glass, and a projector part projecting image information onto the contact glass as first image displaying. The projector part projects thumbnails or an image to have an image processing operation carried out or be printed. The display part carries out second image displaying obtained from reducing the first image displaying in size. At a time of the scanner part being operated, transmittance of the contact glass is increased and the projector part stops projecting the image information, and at a time of the scanner part not being operated, the transmittance of the contact glass is decreased and the projector part carries out the first image displaying. Setting of the image processing operation for the image data is reflected on the first image displaying and the second image displaying.
