摘要:
A method of clocking integrated circuit chips. A pulsed laser (16) striking an integrated circuit module substrate (14) is diffused through the substrate and exits the opposite surface as diffused light pulses. An integrated circuit chip (10) mounted on the top surface of the substrate has at least one optical receiver (17). The optical receiver receives the pulsed energy from the diffused light pulses, converting them to electrical pulses that clock the chip.
摘要:
The invention concerns an optical receiver of an optical link having: a photodiode (202) coupled between a detection node (204) and a first supply voltage rail (GND), the photodiode being adapted to receive an optical clock signal including pulses; a switch (206) coupled between the detection node (204) and a second supply voltage rail (VDD); and a first transistor (211) coupled by its main conducting nodes between the second supply voltage rail (VDD) and a first output node (212) and having its control node coupled to the detection node (204), wherein the switch (206) is controlled based on a voltage at the first output node (212).
摘要:
A method and apparatus for coordinating memory operations among diversely-located memory components is described. In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, wave-pipelining is implemented for an address bus coupled to a plurality of memory components. The plurality of memory components are configured according to coordinates relating to the address bus propagation delay and the data bus propagation delay. A timing signal associated with address and/or control signals which duplicates the propagation delay of these signals is used to coordinate memory operations.
