Abstract: The present invention reduces the area on a die required for rows and columns of redundant memory cells by sharing compare circuitry with banks of redundant memory cells based on division of the primary memory array into two or more "planes." Pass gates or multiplexers coupled between at least two banks of fuses and one compare circuit selectively couple the appropriate fuse bank to the compare circuit. Preferably, a bit in the address (e.g., address bit RA 9 in a row address word having address bits A 0 -RA 9 ) is received by and controls the multiplexer to select between the two banks of fuses. Additionally, the planes span blocks of memory in the memory array, where each block is divided by shared sense amplifiers. As a result, while eight lines are coupled to 16 rows or columns, only eight rows or columns will be active at any one time because isolation gates will enable only eight of the 16 rows or columns within two planes of memory. As a result, the present invention saves on the number of lines required to intercouple the compare circuits to the redundant rows/columns.

Abstract: A packingless gate valve is disclosed which includes a housing (11) having opposed similar housing halves (30,32) with primary resilient sleeve units (53,54) which compressibly engage each other in the valve open condition and engage opposite sides of the gate in the valve closed condition. A secondary resilient seal unit (80) is positioned above the primary sleeve units (53,54) within the housing (11) and is secured between the housing halves (30,32). The secondary seal unit (80) engages the gate (14) during the opening and closing cycles and prevents any discharge seeping between the primary sleeves from leaking to the atmosphere around the gate (14) or on the actuator end of the valve. An enlarged clean out area (70) cast into the housing (11) extends circumferentially around the primary sleeve units (53,54) in one embodiment so as to provide containment for any discharge during an actuating cycle. The housing (11) is further provided with flush ports in fluid communication with the clean out area (70) to allow controlled draining or flushing of the contained slurry. The gate valve construction of the present invention results in no leakage to the outside when the valve is fully open and no leakage to the outside or past the gate (14) internally when the valve is fully closed. <IMAGE>
