The present invention provides a display control semiconductor integrated circuit having therein a RAM, capable of repairing a defective bit included in the RAM and improving the yield without significantly increasing the occupation area. A liquid crystal controller/driver in which a RAM for storing display data is provided in a chip and the storage capacity of the built-in RAM is determined according to the size of a display screen of a liquid crystal panel to be driven, includes a fuse circuit for setting a defect address, and a comparing circuit for comparing the defect address set in the fuse circuit with an input address. The liquid crystal controller/driver also has a redundant circuit, when the addresses match each other, for replacing the input address with an address that instructs the spare memory area and supplying the address to an address decoder.

Display control semiconductor integrated circuit

The present invention is directed to repair a defective bit included in a memory in a semiconductor integrated circuit device for a display controller. The semiconductor integrated circuit device has a display memory capable of storing display data in a storage area, and a repair circuit capable of repairing a defect by replacing an area including a defect in the display memory with a spare storage area provided on the outside of a regular storage area for storing the display data. The device further includes a selector circuit provided on a transmission path of output data from the display memory and selectively replacing output data from the regular storage area with output data from the spare storage area in accordance with a control signal from the repair circuit. By selectively replacing the output data from the regular storage area with output data from the spare storage area in accordance with a control signal from the repair circuit, a defective bit is repaired.

Semiconductor integrated circuit device for display controller

Apparatus for applying a coating of a slurry of a powdered solder material and a binder to the inner surface of a hollow metal cylinder. The apparatus includes solder material coating device including a coating nozzle which may be moved between a coating position within the interior of the hollow metal cylinder and a non-coating position; a guide for guiding and transporting a hollow metal cylinder towards the nozzle; means for rotating and supporting the hollow metal cylinder when the nozzle is in the coating position. The solder coated metal cylinder is used, for example, to provide an exhaust gas cleaning metal carrier in which a metal honey inner core is inserted into and soldered by the solder slurry applied to the hollow metal cylinder.
