Integrated circuit memory with common address register and decoder
First Claim
1. An integrated circuit (IC) memory comprisinga fixed memory unit where necessary information is fixedly stored and the stored information cannot be rewritten;
- a rewrite memory unit where necessary information among information of various sorts inputted in the circuit can be rewritten if necessary;
said fixed memory unit and said rewrite memory unit being integrated in one chip;
an information read/write apparatus integrated in the chip and including a common address register with common decoder means for accessing the fixed memory unit and the rewrite memory unit, and a common output buffer means for receiving data read out from locations in the fixed memory unit and the rewrite memory unit accessed by the common decoder means; and
the fixed memory unit and the rewrite memory unit formed into one chip performing information processing of various sorts regarding tools of an NC machine tool, and being assembled as a memory device of a tool system.

Abstract
An integrated circuit memory which can be applied, for example, to a memory device of a dialogue type tool information interface for an NC machine tool or a memory unit of various identification cards, comprises a fixed memory unit where necessary information is fixedly stored and the information cannot be rewritten, and a rewrite memory unit where necessary information among information of various sorts supplied from the interface or the card read/write apparatus can be rewritten if necessary, and the fixed memory unit and the rewrite memory unit are integrated in one chip or a single body of one module.
