摘要： In a semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus, a first logic circuit processes a clock signal inputted through an external clock input terminal, and each of a plurality of second logic circuits processes the clock signal outputted from the first logic circuit, and outputs the processed clock signal to a plurality of flip-flops. In the semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus, an inner clock signal line is provided for electrically connecting the plurality of second logic circuits with the plurality of flip-flops, wherein the inner clock signal line is formed in a ring shape in the periphery of the semiconductor integrated circuit apparatus so that the plurality of flip-flops are located within the inner clock signal line, thereby reducing the clock skews therebetween in the semiconductor integrated circuit. Furthermore, an outer clock signal line is provided for electrically connecting the first logic circuit with the plurality of second logic circuits, and then the outer clock signal line is formed in a ring shape, thereby further reducing the clock skews therebetween in the semiconductor integrated circuit.

摘要： In a semiconductor integrated circuit, a detection confirmation circuit sets the logical level of a second signal according to the logical level of a first signal observed after a lapse of a predetermined time since detection of insertion/removal of a cable for peripheral equipment.

摘要： A clock control circuit 22 in a control circuit 21 provided in a transmitter 25 controls a gate circuit 12 based on an instruction from a microcomputer 32 to stop the output of the clock to a cable 115 for a first predetermined period of time. Then, a read-out circuit in the microcomputer 32 accesses an EDID 31 stored in an information storing circuit of a receiver 43 via the cable 115, and specifies the first predetermined period of time based on the EDID 31. A reconfiguration circuit 42 provided in the receiver 43 counts the clock-holding state, and resets at least one of the receiver 43 and a TV 114 if the clock has been stopped for a second predetermined period of time. This reset operation suppresses the display of noise on the TV 114. Therefore, the occurrence of noise due to mis-latching between the clock and the data can be reduced even after a signal switching that entails a change in the clock frequency.

摘要： Reception buffer, transmission buffer, transmission-reception buffer, reception filter and transmission filter are provided. The reception filter determines where a received packet should be stored based on the contents of the received packet. Specifically, in executing a READ command, a response packet, which is returned in response to a data transmission packet, is detected by the reception filter. Received packets of the other types are stored on the reception buffer. In executing a WRITE command, a data request packet is transmitted from the transmission buffer. A data reception packet responding to the data request packet is stored by the reception filter on the transmission-reception buffer. Received packets of the other types are stored on the reception buffer. The capacity of the transmission-reception buffer is twice as large as the size of a maximum transferable packet. Thus, overhead can be reduced and yet data can be transferred at higher speeds.

摘要： A data transfer device which set an address of page as transfer destination and transfer data to the page. In the data transfer device to which the present invention is applied, an address and page length of a page are acquired on the basis of an address of a page table specified by a read command. Then, transfer information including the address of transfer source, transfer data length and address of transfer destination of data is set according to page element of page as transfer destination page. Then, it is judged whether the transfer destination page and other page form a continuous area. And if it is judged that the continuous area is formed, transfer information will be changed. Data transfer is effected on the basis of changed transfer information. That reduces the need to set the other area at the transfer destination and thus the transfer efficiency improves.

摘要： A reception buffer, a transmission buffer, a transmission-reception buffer, a reception filter, a transmission filter and a packet processor are provided. If a response packet paired with a request packet has been received during a data exchange operation, then the reception filter stores the response packet received on the transmission-reception buffer and informs the packet processor of response detected. Alternatively, if a packet that has nothing to do with the current data exchange operation has been received, then the reception filter stores the received packet on the reception buffer and issues a suspension instruction to the packet processor. And when a transaction being carried out at the time of reception is completed, the packet processor suspends the data exchange. In this manner, the overheads involved with firmware processing by a central processing unit can be reduced and data can be exchanged at higher speeds.
