Abstract: The arithmetic operations performed for floating point format numbers involve procedures having a multiplicity of major steps. The effective subtraction operation can be accelerated by using two methods of execution depending on whether the absolute value of the difference between the arguments of the exponents, ABS{DELTA(E)} is ≦1 or >1. The procedure for ABS{DELTA(E)}≦1 requires more major process steps than the situation where ABS{DELTA(E)}>1. To accelerate only the procedure having more major process steps, the two least significant bits of both exponent arguments are examined and based on the examination, the lengthier procedure can be initiated in parallel with the process step determining the value of ABS{DELTA(E)}. When the lengthier procedure is determined to be inappropriate based on the determined value, the results of the lengthier process can be discarded. Otherwise, the lengthier process, already in progress, is continued.

Abstract: A focusing apparatus of an electron microscope for fo­cusing an electron beam (1) through a focusing lens (2) onto a sample (3) comprises deflecting means (4, 5) for making the electron beam (1) scan on the sample (3), means (8, 9) for correcting an astigmatism of the electron beam (1), means (6) for detecting the secondary electrons from the sample (3) when scanned by the electron beam (1), and means (15) to determine the optimum exciting current of the focusing lens (2). The op­timum exciting current is obtained by determining the position of the center of gravity of an area surrounded by a curve Y = f (I) and a fixed straight line. The curve Y shows the rela­tionship between the exciting current for the focusing lens (2) and an electron beam radius corresponding signal which is obtained on the basis of a signal from the detecting means (6) and inversely corresponds to a radius of the electron beam (11) on the surface of the sample (3).

Abstract: An EEPROM device provides increased speed and less susceptibility to soft writes during reading and programming operations. A circuit design and operating method obviates the need for applying a high programming or erase voltage in the path between the memory array and sense amplifier. Such high program­ming and erase voltages are applied, as needed, directly to the memory array, thereby allowing all transistors which carry signals from the memory array to the sense amplifier to be fabricated as low voltage devices, thereby increasing their speed of operation and thus the speed of operation of the memory device as a whole. By applying the relatively high programming and erase voltages to the source of the memory transistors, and reading from the drain of the memory transistors, the source and drain as well as associated circuitry are fabricated to optimize their intended functions.
