Application No. 08/609,234

data address generator 25. It seems clear that if the system
controller 7 of Maeda is detecting addresses and supplying the
detected data to sub-data address generator 25 which, in turn, feeds
RAM interface 19 [generator 25 and RAM interface 19 being part of the
memory controller] for addressing RAM 6, the memory control means is
not acting independently, or “autonomously with respect to the system
controller,” in creating a sector data storing area, as claimed.
Accordingly, the examiner’s decision rejecting claims 1, 5 and
20 under 35 U.S.C. § 102(e) is reversed.
