| 20080250186 | BUS CONNECTING DEVICE FOR CONNECTING HOST WITH EXTERNAL DEVICE - A detecting unit detects a connection of an external device to a connection port and stores the connection in a bridge state storage unit. This setting is autonomously completed by a device before an initial configuration is started by a host. A data transfer unit receives initial configuration data of a link-connection bridge from the host. Data is transferred to the linked-uplink-connection bridge with reference to the bridge state storage unit, data to a bridge which is not linked up is wasted, or an Unsupported Request is returned to the host to represent the absence of the link-connection bridge. | 10-09-2008 |

A light emitter for vehicle has an elongated base member. The base member is flexible, and has a recess formed in one surface side thereof along the longitudinal direction of the side. The recess has a bottom surface on which a flexible substrate is disposed with one end thereof being connected with a cable which is inserted into the base member from the tip end of the base member. The flexible substrate is provided with a resistor, a surge suppressor diode, and a plurality of LEDs arranged in line on the flexible substrate. The recess is filled with a transparent resin. The base member has an adhesive layer formed on the other surface side, with a release paper adhered to the adhesive layer. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090059928 | COMMUNICATION APPARATUS, COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, ABSENT PACKET DETECTING METHOD AND ABSENT PACKET DETECTING PROGRAM - Any packet loss is detected very quickly by means of only a series of sequence number in a multi-path environment where a transmitter and a receiver are connected to each other by way of a plurality of networks when no inversion of sequence arises in any of the networks. A communication apparatus includes a plurality of sequence buffers arranged at each network to accumulate packets until a sequence acknowledgement and an absence detecting section adapted to determine the occurrence of an absence of a packet when one or more packets are accumulated in all the sequence buffers. With this arrangement, the absence detecting section of the receiver monitors the packets staying in the sequence guaranteeing buffer arranged in each of the network, paying attention to the characteristic that packets are stored in the sequence buffers of all the networks when a packet loss takes place. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090201753 | Semiconductor memory device, control method therefor, and method for determining repair possibility of defective address - There are provided are a plurality of memory mats, a sub-word driver that accesses a normal memory cell irrespective of whether a row address to which access is requested is a defective address, a sub-word driver that accesses a redundant memory cell belonging to a memory mat different from the normal memory cell indicated by the row address, when the row address is a defective address. According to the present invention, the normal memory cell and a redundant memory cell belong to memory mats different to each other, and thus the normal memory cell can be accessed concurrently with determining operation of the repair determining circuit. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090268534 | SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICE AND TEST METHOD THEREOF - A semiconductor memory device comprises a memory cell array having memory cells arranged at intersections of word lines and bit lines, a first sense amplifier connected to a bit line at a predetermined position of the bit lines, a second sense amplifier connected to a bit line adjacent to the bit line at the predetermined position, a supplying circuit for supplying a predetermined voltage to each bit line connected to the first or second sense amplifier, and a sense amplifier control circuit capable of controlling the first and second sense amplifiers independently. In the semiconductor memory device, the sense amplifier control circuit performs a control in which an operation of either of the first and second sense amplifiers is stopped, the predetermined voltage is supplied to the bit line connected to the stopped sense amplifier, and the other of the first and second sense amplifiers is operated. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100142246 | SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICE - A semiconductor memory device comprises a plurality of memory cell mats, a plurality of sub-word driver regions and a plurality of sense amplifier regions, a plurality of intersection regions, a sub-amplifier, and a start signal (a control signal) supply circuit (a sub-amplifier control circuit). A plurality of sub-word driver regions and a plurality of sense amplifier regions are disposed adjacent to the plurality of memory cell mats. A plurality of intersection regions are intersection regions between the plurality of sub-word driver regions and the plurality of sense amplifier regions. The sub-amplifier is disposed in a first intersection region among the plurality of intersection regions. The start signal supply circuit is disposed in a second intersection region among the plurality of intersection regions, and supplies a start signal (a control signal) of the sub-amplifier to the sub-amplifier based on a sub-amplifier timing signal supplied from the extending direction of the sub-word driver region. | 06-10-2010 |
