MAGNETIC BUBBLE MEMORY COMPONENT

Abstract: A magnetic bubble memory component in the form of a module (1) incorporating a magnetic bubble memory device (10) and analog peripheral circuits therefor (3, 4, 5, 6) mounted on substrate (2) which also carries lead terminals (7). The module (1) can be mounted on a conventional printed circuit board in the manner of other electronic components such as IC's. Further, the module (1) enables a designer with no knowledge of analog circuitry to design memory apparatus utlising the module. Lead terminals (12) of the device (10) are protected by protection means (8), of insulator such as plastics materials, so that charged bodies (e.g. a human finger) cannot contact those terminals (12). Thereby the possibility of electrostatic charge damage to the device (10) is avoided, affording high reliability and high production yield for memory apparatus using the module (1).

Description: The present invention relates to a magnetic bubble memory component. Semiconductor memory devices such as integrated circuit (IC) memory devices are playing a major role in the provision of large capacity storage for electronic apparatus such as computers. However, because of the volatility of data stored in such memories, auxiliary storage is indispensable so that data can be sheltered and maintained when power is not supplied, for example before operation is resumed after a power down. A magnetic bubble memory device is a non-volatile memory device capable of retaining stored data information without power supply. In addition, a magnetic bubble memory device has many advantages such as ease of re-writing, high reliability due to the absence of moving elements, compact size, a structure suitable for mounting onto a printed circuit board, etc. As such, the field of application of magnetic bubble memory devices has been increasingly expanding. Particularly, magnetic bubble memory devices are applicable to file memories and program loaders for various apparatuses such as numerical control (NC) devices, robots, production control terminals, point-of-sale (POS) terminals, office automation (OA) apparatus, and the like. The constitution and operation of magnetic bubble memory devices is well-known, but an example will be described briefly hereinafter. A magnetic bubble memory device comprises a substrate consisting of a magnetic garnet single crystal film epitaxially grown on a non-magnetic garnet substrate (a gadolinium-gallium-garnet, GGG, substrate), and a transfer circuit, generator circuit and detector circuit as well as means for retaining and transferring magnetic bubbles are formed on the single crystal film. Generally, a magnetic bubble memory device has a structure as shown in Fig. 1 of the accompanying drawings, which gives a partly exploded perspective view. The device comprises a memory chip 102 mounted on an insulator substrate 101, a X-Y coil arrangement 103, permanent magnetic plates referred as bias magnets 104, ferrite yokes 105, lead terminals 106, and a shield case 107. The X-Y coil arrangement 103 generates a rotating magnetic field which is applied to the memory chip 102 to transfer magnetic bubbles stored in the chip 102. The bias magnets 104 and the ferrite yokes 105 apply a bias magnetic field to the memory chip 102 in order to retain magnetic bubbles therein. The lead terminals 106 are used to connect the magnetic bubble chip 102 to associated peripheral circuits for controlling bubble movement inside the chip and for external delivery of output signals. The total device is accommodated in a shield case 107. Fig. 2 of the accompanying drawings is a schematic plan view of a pattern configuration formed on a magnetic bubble memory chip 102. On a magnetic garnet crystal film grown epitaxially on a non-magnetic garnet substrate (not shown), various elements are formed: a bubble generator 111 coupled with a write-in major line 112, a read-out major line 114, and a large number of minor-loops 113 for storing information with which both major lines, 112 and 114, are coupled. The major lines 112 and 114, and the minor loops 113, are composed of a series of conductor patterns, half disk-shaped patterns, for example. The conductor patterns are formed of iron-nickel alloy (Permalloy) having a high magnetic permeability by a conventional film forming method, and magnetic bubbles are transferred therethrough and stored therein. A group of signals stored in the patterns located along a "horizontal" line (as shown in Fig. 2 by broken line A-A) is referred to as a page. When write-in is effected signals are applied to the bubble generator 111, bubble signals are generated therein and, under the control of a swap-gate 115, bubble signals are transferred in a sequence composing a page, which is transferred through the major line 112 to minor loops 113 by driving X-Y coils 123. When read-out of signals is effected, stored information signals in the form of magnetic bubbles are copied by a replicate gate 116 and transferred to a detector 117 which is made of Permalloy. Thereby, the information signals are converted to current signals utilizing a magnetoresistance effect of Permalloy, and detecting difference of resistance of relevant Permalloy patterns. The current signals are amplified and converted to a TTL (transistor-transistor logic) level by a sense amplifier (not shown). A boot loop 119, a boot swap gate 120 and a boot replicate gate 121 provide information with regard to inherent defects of the minor loops 113 to provide for skipping of these defects during write-in and read-out operations. In Fig. 2, a X-Y coil arrangement is schematically illustrated at 123, and an erase coil is schematically illustrated at 122. The gates mentioned above are driven by respective analog drivers: analog circuits which require analog technology for their design. These analog circuits comprise function drivers, a coil driver and a sense amplifier. These circuits are referred to as analog peripheral circuits. On the other hand, a magnetic bubble memory apparatus also has a group of digital circuits, referred as digital peripheral circuits, which handle digital signals to control the analog circuits according to write-in signals or read-out signals provided by external controlling circuitry. As indicated above, a magnetic bubble memory apparatus comprises magnetic bubble memory devices, analog peripheral circuits and digital peripheral circuits, which are usually mounted on a printed circuit board. As a result, magnetic bubble memory apparatus has been built into a user's overall apparatus, as its storage unit, utilizing electrical connecting means such as connectors and mechanical fixing means such as fixing frames. US-A-4 180 863 discloses a printed circuit board on which a plurality of groups of magnetic bubble devices are mounted together with, for example, pluralities of sense drivers, integrated circuit drivers and other support circuitry componentry. The board has edge connector pads for plugging into edge connector slide contact receptacles. It is indicated that, as an alternative to the edge connector pads, terminal pins might be provided which extend perpendicularly from a surface of the board opposite to its main component mounting surface. According to the present invention, there is provided a magnetic bubble memory component, incorporating a magnetic bubble memory device and analog peripheral circuitry for driving and controlling the device, wherein the device and electrical elements forming the analog peripheral circuitry are mounted on a substrate of the component, the device is mounted on the substrate by means of lead terminals of the device, and the component incorporates protection elements for protecting the device lead terminals from contact by external bodies, thereby to avoid electrostatic discharge damage such as might be caused by contact with a charged body, and wherein the substrate carries also lead terminals of the component, for receiving electrical input signals for the peripheral circuitry and for delivering electrical output signals therefrom, which extend perpendicularly with respect to a main surface of the substrate and are arranged along two lines, on opposite side edges of the substrate, whereby the component is mountable on a printed circuit board by means of its lead terminals by dip soldering, in the fashion of a dip-packaged IC. An embodiment of the present invention provides a magnetic bubble memory component in the form of a module mountable to a storage device as a non-volatile memory unit. An embodiment of the present invention provides a construction of a module including a magnetic bubble memory device and its analog peripheral circuits, easily mountable onto a printed circuit board of a storage apparatus. A module embodying the present invention can be easily mounted on a printed circuit board without the use of connectors and fixing frames as mentioned above. This provides a user with a magnetic bubble memory device component which can be handled for mounting on a printed circuit board like other electronic elements, to afford freedom of design and easiness of mounting. An embodiment of the present invention provides a magnetic bubble memory module having outer lead terminals by which the module is mountable on an ordinary printed circuit board in a similar way to that in which IC's are mounted. Further, an embodiment of the present invention provide means protecting a magnetic bubble memory device accommodated in such a module from electrostatic discharge damage, for example as might be caused by the touch of a charged body such as an operator. An embodiment of the present invention provides a magnetic bubble memory module comprising associated analog peripheral circuits, so that users can handle the module without design skill relating to analog circuits. A magnetic bubble memory module embodying the present invention comprises a magnetic bubble memory device and analog peripheral circuits, not including digital peripheral circuits. The outer size of the module is minimized to facilitate realization of high packing density in apparatus into which the module is built. Output and input terminals, outer lead terminals, for connecting the module to its digital peripheral circuits are of conventional type, like those of a packaged IC, being arranged in lines so that the module can be mounted onto a printed circuit board by dip-soldering, in the same or similar soldering operation as is used for mounting other electrical elements such as ICs, resistors and the like. This provides the designer of apparatus using the module with a great deal of design freedom and flexibility of design. In addition, design knowledge of analog circuitry is not required of the designer, who will usually be familiar with the design of digital circuits but not analog circuits. In addition, for operators in a production line, a magnetic bubble memory module embodying the present invention can provide an advantage of easy handling, obtained by using a protecting insulator cover or a protector for the lead terminals of the magnetic bubble memory device to prevent electrostatic discharge damage such as might otherwise be caused by touching of those terminals by fingers of operators or other charged bodies. Generally, the data stored in a magnetic bubble memory device can be easily damaged by electrostatic discharge. Particularly, if boot loop information stored in boot loops, indicating defects of minor loops, is disturbed, the whole module becomes unavailable. The lead terminals of the magnetic bubble memory device are carefully covered or protected by a plastic cover or projections so that the terminals are protected from any electrostatic discharge damage. Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention a substrate of the magnetic bubble memory module may be reinforced by a plastic frame surrounding the edge of the substrate adhered thereto with the aid of plastic adhesion material. In addition, heatsinks may be arranged on the surface of the module supported by the plastic frame to dissipate heat generated for example in a coil driver and function drivers which are mounted on a front surface of the substrate (a printed circuit board) of the module. The above-mentioned features of embodiments of the present invention are not always employed instantaneously in combination with one another, but can be selectively applied depending on the design of the relevant magnetic bubble memory module.

Fig. 3 is a block circuit diagram schematically illustrating a magnetic bubble memory module in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The module comprises a magnetic bubble memory device 10, a coil drive circuit 20, a function drive circuit 30 and a sense amplifier circuit 40. X and Y coil drive circuitry 20 generates signals of triangular waveform which are supplied to X-Y coils (c.f. 123 in Fig. 2) for propagating magnetic bubbles in a magnetic bubble memory chip of the device 10. The function drive circuit 30 controls the propagation of the magnetic bubbles by feeding respective control signals to various gates of the magnetic bubble memory device such as bubble generator gates (not shown), replicator gates (c.f. 116 in Fig. 2) and swap gates (c.f. 115 in Fig. 2). Sense amplifier circuit 40 amplifies and converts output signals, of mV-level, from a detector (c.f. 117 in Fig. 2) of the magnetic bubble memory device to a TTL level, and outputs converted signals from the module to digital peripheral circuits (shown in Fig. 4). The devices and circuits mentioned above may be of conventional type. Details of structure and operation of these elements, therefore, will not be described further for the sake of simplicity. Arrows with reference numerals shown on the left hand side of Fig. 3 indicate various digital signals, at TTL level, which are input to the module: arrows 20-1 to 20-4 indicate timing signals for the coil drive circuit 20, arrows 30-1 to 30-5 indicate gate timing signals, arrow 30-6 indicates a chip selecting signal, arrow 40-1 indicates a DC reproducing timing signal, and arrow 40-2 indicates a strobe signal. Arrow 40-3 indicates an output signal at TTL level, which is output from the sense amplifier circuit 40 to the digital peripheral circuit (see Fig. 4). Power supply terminals to the coil drive circuit 20, function drive circuit 30 and sense amplifier circuit 40 are indicated respectively by arrows 50-1 to 50-5, which carry power supply voltages of +5V, +12V, -12V, -5V and 0V in the recited order. Arrows 60-1 and 60-2 indicate lead terminals to an erase coil (not shown; c.f. Fig. 2) of the magnetic bubble memory device 10. The total system of a magnetic bubble memory apparatus is illustrated in the schematic block circuit diagram of Fig. 4. The system comprises N magnetic bubble memory modules, 1-1 to 1-N each as described above, and their digital peripheral circuits which latter comprise a gate controller 70, a sequencer 71, a timing generator 72, a decoder 73, a voltage detector 74 and an oscillator 75. When write-in or read-out digital signals are fed to the magnetic bubble memory apparatus from a host apparatus, a host computer for instance, these input digital signals are processed by the digital peripheral circuits to select one of the magnetic bubble memory modules 1-1 to 1-N and to carry out the write-in or read-out operation, resulting in feeding back of an output sense signal to the host apparatus. These circuits and their operations may be of conventional type and further description thereof will be omitted. The concern of present invention lies in mechanical structure of a magnetic bubble memory module comprising a (one or more) magnetic bubble memory device and relevant analog peripheral circuits. For assistance in explaining features which can be provided in an embodiment of the present invention, reference is made to the exploded perspective view of Fig. 5. In the module 1, on the front (upper) surface of a substrate, hereby a multi-layered or bilateral printed circuit board 2, there are mounted four IC's 3 for an X-Y coil driver, an IC 4 for function driver, and a magnetic bubble memory device 10. On the rear (lower) surface of the substrate 2 there are mounted two IC's 5, for a sense amplifier, and electrical chip elements 6 such as resistors and condensers. Outer or external lead terminals 7, for mounting the magnetic bubble memory module 1 on to another printed circuit board of other apparatus, are arranged in two lines and extend in a direction perpendicular to the surfaces of the substrate or printed circuit board 2. This enables the magnetic bubble memory module 1 to be mounted easily onto a printed circuit board of an electrical apparatus; as easily as a packaged IC. Terminals 7 are usually supplied to a production line in a comb-like ribbon form wherein each lead terminal is connected to each other in sequence by a connecting portion 7' which is cut away after fixing of the lead terminals 7 to the printed circuit board 2. After mounting of the parts described above on the printed circuit board 2, the rear (lower) surface of the board 2 is covered with a layer of thermosetting resin which covers all the elements mounted on that surface to protect the elements from heating during a soldering operation involved when mounting the module 1 on another printed circuit board. Parts generating heat, namely IC's 3 and 4 for the coil driver and the function driver are selected to be mounted on the front (upper) surface of the substrate or printed circuit board 2, so that heat in relatively large quantity can be dissipated effectively therefrom. The magnetic bubble memory device 10 is also mounted on the front (upper) surface of the printed circuit board 2, in order to that a bad loop ID (identification) label 11 on the surface of the magnetic bubble memory device 10 can be read easily (the label indicates defects contained in the magnetic bubble memory device 10 for assistance with regard to write-in and read-out operations in the device). Thus, the magnetic bubble memory module 1 described above can be handled as easily as are IC's during work involved in their mounting onto a printed circuit board. An embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in the perspective view of Fig. 6 and in the partly exploded perspective view of Fig. 7. A plan view, a side view and a rear view of the second embodiment are illustrated respectively in Fig. 8(a), (b) and (c). Main parts are shown separately (exploded apart) in Fig. 7 to better display the mounting structure. As compared with Fig. 5, the embodiment additionally provides means for protecting lead terminals 12 (see also Fig. 5) of the magnetic bubble memory device 10, which terminals extend from the package of the device 10, from electrostatic discharge damage as caused by the touch of a human body. As well known, the human body stores static electrical charges, and therefore, the human body must not touch the magnetic bubble memory device 10 directly or indirectly through the lead terminals 12, otherwise information stored therein as magnetic bubbles may be damaged. In particular, in a boot loop of magnetic bubble memory device 10, information regarding defects contained in the bubble memory chip, such as damaged conductor patterns of minor loops, is stored (this relates also to the information displayed on a label 11). Defects of the chip must be skipped when information is written in or read out from the minor loops. Accordingly, if this defect information in a boot loop is damaged, the entire magnetic bubble memory module becomes unavailable or unusable. In order to prevent the magnetic bubble memory device from being touched by the human body, for example by fingers during work for mounting the module on a printed circuit board; a protector of insulator material such as plastic is additionally provided in the embodiment, for protecting the lead terminals 12. In this case an insulative protector 8 as seen in Figs. 6, 7 and 8 is of plastic material such as polybutylene terephtalate (PBT), and has the shape of a rectangular frame as seen most clearly in Fig. 7. The protector 8 has surfaces 8a formed by step-like projections on internal wall faces of a frame-like portion 8b of the protector, inside of which the printed circuit board 2 is accommodated held by abutment against the surfaces 8a and surrounded tightly by the frame-like portion 8b. After insertion of the printed circuit board 2 into the frame-like portion 8b, the protector 8 and the printed circuit board 2 are inverted and liquid thermosetting resin is poured thereon, and solidified by a subsequent heat treatment to form a thick plastic layer 13 (see Fig. 8(c)) and the two parts (protector 8 and p.c.b. 2) are fixed to each other. The plastic layer 13 on the rear surface of the printed circuit board 2 covers the electrical elements mounted thereon as shown by the hatched portion in the rear view of the module 1 shown in Fig. 8(c). The thermosetting resin used is silicon resin. Thus, the printed circuit board is reinforced by the protector 8 and the plastic layer 13. Flange-like top portions 8c of the protector 8 are designed to cover the lead terminals 12 of the magnetic bubble memory device 10 so that the lead terminals 12 cannot be touched by fingers of workers. With this structure, the lead terminals 12 are protected completely. Furthermore, outer wall surfaces of the frame-like portion 8b enable assembly workers conveniently to carry the module 1 with fingers or tools on those surfaces. In addition, lift-off projections 8d are formed on the bottom edge of the frame-like portion 8b, which are valuable when mounting the module 1 on a printed circuit board by dip soldering. These lift-off projections help to maintain a gap between the bottom of the module 1 and the printed circuit board which assists in removal of residual chemicals used for cleaning after dip-soldering. The protector 8 serves to support the total weight of the magnetic bubble memory module 1 when mounted on a printed circuit board. The module 1 is rather heavy because of drive coils and bias magnets involved. Accordingly, the structure supporting the module 1 by the frame-like portion 8b and lift-off projections 8d of the protector 8 is effective to provide magnetic bubble memory apparatus in which such modules are used with a more vibration-resistive structure and to reduce mechanical loads otherwise applied to the outer lead terminals 7. In the embodiment of Figs. 6, 7 and 8, a heatsink 9 is provided to increase dissipation of heat generated in ICs 3 and 4 as shown in Fig. 6, 7 and 8. The heatsink 9 is put on the ICs 3 and 4 and liquid thermosetting resin having a high heat conductivity is filled therebetween, being solidified by a heat treatment, forming a heat conductive layer to take the heat to the heatsink 9 for dissipation. The heatsink 9 is positioned with the aid of the protector 8. The heatsink 9 is of aluminium which is coated black, having dissipation fins formed thereon as shown in Fig. 6 to Fig. 8. The heatsink 9 can reduce the temperature rise of the ICs 3 and 4 to approximately 40 o C. In addition, the heatsink 9 serves to increase the mechanical strength or rigidity of the printed circuit board 2, namely, the magnetic bubble memory module 1. A second embodiment, which may be seen as representing a simplified modification of the first embodiment, is shown in the perspective view of Fig. 9. Small simple moulded plastic protectors 28 are positioned to cover the lead terminals 12 of the magnetic bubble memory device 10. Fig. 10 is a perspective view, partly cut away, showing detailed structure of a protector 28, illustrating a method used for mounting the protector 28 with respect to the substrate 2 of the magnetic bubble memory module 1. The protector 28 has a L-type cross-section, comprising base portion 28a, protection wall 28b and top flange 28c. In the base portion 28a, a long slit 28s is formed in the longitudinal direction of the protector, having a length and width sufficient to allow a line of lead terminals 12 of the magnetic bubble memory device 10 to pass therethrough. Thus the protectors 28 can be fixed to the printed circuit board 2 of the module 1, by passing the lead terminals 12 through their slits 28s beforehand, inserting the lead terminals 12 into through-holes (not shown) of the printed circuit board 2, and fixing the terminals 12 to the printed circuit board 2 by a conventional dip-soldering method. As a result, the lead terminals 12 of the magnetic bubble memory device 10 are prevented from being touched by means of the protectors 28. Of course, it wild be clear that the shape, and structure or the mounting method of the protector for the lead terminals of the magnetic bubble memory device can have various modifications and are not restricted to the second embodiment described above. An embodiment of the present invention provides a magnetic bubble memory module containing a magnetic bubble memory device and its analog peripheral circuits mounted on a substrate, having outer input/output lead terminals, allowing the module to be mounted on a conventional printed circuit board instantaneously with other electronic elements. Lead terminals of the magnetic bubble memory device are protected by a protection means of insulator such as plastic material so that the magnetic bubble memory device is protected from electrostatic discharge damage caused by the touch of a charged body such as human fingers, resulting in high reliability and high production yield of the magnetic bubble memory apparatus.
