摘要:
A specific address and control bus, and a data bus (108), are connected to a memory controller (102) and a memory module (103). The data bus using differential signaling, has symbol time lesser than specific address and control bus symbol time.
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.
摘要:
A surface emitting laser (SEL) with an integrated absorber. A lower mirror and an output coupler define a laser cavity of the SEL. A monolithic gain structure positioned in the laser cavity includes a gain region and an absorber, wherein a saturation fluence of the absorber is less than a saturation fluence of the gain region.
摘要:
The invention relates to a signal transmission method and a motherboard structure (50) used in a base station of a radio system, for example, and comprises printed circuit board units (10-12) communicating with the motherboard structure and communicating with one another by signals. The motherboard structure (50) comprises an optical fibre sheet (40) having optical fibres (41, 42) arranged therein, first converter means (20, 21) receiving from the printed circuit board unit electrical low-power and high-frequency signals, such as clock signals and RF signals. The first converter means convert the received signals into optical signals, and each optical signal is conducted into an optical fibre of its own in the fibre sheet (40). The motherboard structure further comprises second converter means (30, 31) converting the optical signals which have propagated in the fibre sheet (40) back into electrical signals which are conducted to the printed circuit board units after the conversion.
摘要:
A processor arrangement consists of a number of individual autonomous processor units which communicate with each other by means of electro-magnetic waves. The electro-magnetic energy is typically at infra-red optical frequencies. Although the energy necessary to operate the individual processor units can be supplied by means of conductive bus bars, in a preferred arrangement the energy is supplied from a light source at optical frequencies to photo cells mounted on each of the processor units. Each processor arrangement is provided with an input-output device which communicates with the individual processor units by means of electro-magnetic waves and is provided with external conductive leads in a conventional manner. The whole processor arrangement is encapsulated in an evacuated chamber.
