    摘要: A semiconductor integrated circuit memory is disclosed in which a first impurity-doped layer for making circuit elements such as MESFET's and a second impurity-doped layer opposite in conductivity type to the first impurity-doped layer are formed in a semi-insulating substrate in such a manner that the second impurity-doped layer is formed under and between circuit elements for making up a memory cell array part and a peripheral circuit part, and is divided into at least first and second regions. For example, the first region formed under and between the circuit elements of the memory cell array part is made of a P-type layer which is high in carrier density, and the second region formed under and between the circuit elements of the peripheral circuit part is made of a P-type layer which is low in carrier density. The high carrier-density P-type layer formed under the memory cell array part allows a memory cell having a minimum critical charge for alpha-particles to gain satisfactory alpha-particle immunity even when the memory cell is made fine in size. Further, the low carrier-density P-type layer formed under the peripheral circuit part having a critical charge larger than that of the memory cell can improve the alpha-particle immunity of the peripheral circuit part and can suppress an increase in parasitic capacitance at the peripheral circuit part to maintain the high-speed operation of the memory.

    摘要: An input buffer for a semiconductor circuit is provided with a source follower circuit composed of a first FET whose gate electrode has an input connected thereto, and a second FET of the same conductivity type as that of the first FET, whose drain electrode is connected to a source electrode of the first FET directly or through at least one level-shifting diode and whose gate electrode is supplied with a control voltage. The input buffer also includes a FET inverter circuit connected to the drain electrode of the second FET directly or through at least one level-shifting diode. An output signal for the input buffer is derived from the FET inverter circuit. A particular advantage of the present invention is that it permits the input buffer to switch its output from one level to another in response to input signals falling within a predetermined voltage range regardless of logic threshold level fluctuations in the FETs and fluctuations in supply voltages coupled to the input buffer.

    摘要: The disclosed invention makes mobile terminals physically impossible to use in specific spaces without using radio waves of so high intensity as to affect medical devices and without requiring telephone companies that operate wireless communications systems (WCS) to take special measures. Cooperation of a telephone company on the implementation of making mobile terminals physically impossible to use in specific spaces makes mobile terminals provided by the telephone company easy to use. Pseudo signals of downlink pilot signal in WCS are emitted off the pilot timing in specific spaces. Uplink channel radio waves in cooperative telephone compannies' WCS are relayed and communication path is disconnected if the uplink channel radio waves are for communication of an attribute banned in the space. Communication path can be disconnected without increasing the intensity of radio waves so high. In cooperative telephone compannies' WCS, only the path of communication of an attribute banned in the space is disconnected.

    摘要: In transmitting and receiving signals between a plurality of units in a information processing system, signals can be transmitted and received between circuits operated by asynchronous clocks which are the same in period (frequency) but not necessarily to be the same in phase, thereby permitting the information processing system to operate with a shorter clock period. A delay circuit arranged in the communication path is so controllable that the data sent out in synchronism with the clock signal of a transmitting unit is correctly retrieved in synchronism with the clock signal of a receiving unit. Further, data having a predetermined simple pattern is sent out in synchronism with the clock signal of the transmitting unit, and it is decided whether the data has been correctly received by the receiving unit. The delay circuit is automatically controlled by use of the result of decision.
