A semiconductor wafer includes pairs of semiconductor dies having test pads which are electrically coupled to each other to enable testing of pairs of semiconductor dies together at the same time. In this way, even wafers having large numbers of semiconductor dies can be tested with a semiconductor test assembly in a single touch-down test process.

A roller includes chamfered portions and roller inclined surfaces formed on both axial ends of a roller outer circumferential surface. When in a cross section taken along a plane including a rotation axis of the roller and a bearing central axis, an intersection angle between a tangent line of the roller inclined surface at the first position of the roller inclined surface corresponding to an end portion of a guide surface and a perpendicular line of the rotation axis is defined as α, an intersection angle between a tangent line of the roller inclined surface at the second position corresponding to a boundary between the chamfered portion and the roller inclined surface and a perpendicular line of the rotation axis is defined as β, and an intersection angle between the guide surface and a perpendicular line of the bearing central axis is defined as θ, α<θ<β is satisfied.

For a non-volatile memory die formed of multiple blocks of memory cells, the memory die has a multi-bit bad block flag for each block stored on the memory die, such as in a fuse ROM. For each block, the multi-bit flag indicates if the block has few defects and is of the highest reliability category, is too defective to be used, or is in of one of multiple recoverability categories. The multi-bit bad blocks values can be determined as part a test process on fresh devices, where the test of a block can be fail stop for critical category errors, but, for recoverable categories, the test continues and tracks the test results to determine a recoverability category for the block and write this onto the die as a bad block flag for each block. These recoverability categories can be incorporated into wear leveling operations.

Block quality classification at testing for non-volatile memory, and multiple bad block flags for product diversity

The contact portion of the end face of a conical roller, which is a portion to be slidingly contacted with a collar portion, is ground such that the outer contour line of the section thereof has a continuously curved line which passes through at least not only the first point but also between the third position and fourth position.

A cageof a tapered roller bearingholds tapered rollersby plural pockets formed between a large-diameter side annular partand a small-diameter side annular partarranged in an axial direction, and plural bar partswhich axially join the large-diameter side annular partand the small-diameter side annular partand are circumferentially formed at substantially an equal distance. A value of a ratio of a cross section modulus of the small-diameter side annular partof the cageto a cross section modulus of the large-diameter side annular partof the cageis values from 0.5 to 1.5 (both inclusive).

When performing a handover of a user equipment, a base station selects one of first and second algorithms based on a handover state of the user equipment. Then, the base station determines a format of a communication channel with the user equipment based on the selected algorithm and quality of communication with the user equipment.

There is realized a self-aligning roller bearing with retainer that stabilizes the orientation of spherical rollers and prevents these spherical rollers from skewing, and which can be rotated at high speed, and furthermore which enables efficient lubricant feed into pockets By rotating a turning toolas it revolves, the surfaces on both sides in the circumferential direction of respective column sections are processed into concave curved surfaces that oppose a rolling surface of the respective spherical rollers across a pocket clearance into which lubricant oil can be fed. The length of the column sectionsis less than the length in the axial direction of the spherical rollers, and greater than a half of the length, and an end portion of the side surface in the circumferential direction of the respective column sectionsprojects further in the circumferential direction than an intermediate portion thereof, and the spherical rollers are embraced in the pockets

A method of producing rolling elements for a rolling bearing comprises mixing to process rounded elements made of steel balls and spherical rolling elements having outer diameter portion portion becoming a rolling contact face. The rolling contact face has curvatures in an axial direction and a radial direction normal to the axial direction, and has at least one plane. The thus mixed elements are placed and processed in a space between two processing boards opposing each other via the determined space. Thereby, the surfaces of the rounded balls and the rolling elements are processed to be rounded.

A radial roller bearing has: an outer ring; an inner ring; and, a cylindrical roller interposed between the outer ring and the inner ring, the outer and inner rings respectively including flange portions formed in the end portions thereof so as to be opposed to the end face of the cylindrical roller, wherein, in the end face of the cylindrical roller, there is formed a circular-ring-shaped contact portion of the roller end having centers of curvature continuously existing on a circle which lies on a plane parallel to the end face of the cylindrical roller and also the center of the circle is on the rotation axis of the cylindrical roller.

In machining a pocket () installing therein a rolling element, tools () are prepared whose milling parts () have contours which coincide with the sectional configuration of the pocket resulting when the pocket has been machined along a retainer radial direction (Z), and the milling parts () of the tools () are inserted into a prepared hole for the pocket which is provided in advance and are then translated in a retainer revolving direction (Y) and axial direction (X), respectively, for forming the pocket. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a retainer for rolling bearings that has high accuracy in machining pockets and which is suitable for an integral one-piece retainer.

A brass is a base material, and a material containing Mn and Si is cast to make a ring material. Ametallic structure in the cross section of the ring material is under a condition where an intermetallic compound Mn Si is uniformly and finely scattered and precipitated in the base material (brass composed of &agr;- and &bgr;-phase). A machined retainer provided by matching said material has an excellent sizing precision, sound affect resistance.
