    摘要: An integrated cache architecture that has low power consumption, high noise immunity, and full support of an integrated validity/least recently used (LRU) cache write mode. The cache stores TAG, index and LRU information directly on a master word line, and cache line data on local word lines. The access information is made available early in the cycle, allowing the cache to disable local word lines that are not needed. The master word lines and local word lines having approximately the same cycle time. By laying out the master and local word lines in a metal layer that substantially renders the stored data immune to overlaying noise sources, high frequency interconnections can be made over the cache without disturbing the stored data. The architecture circuitry efficiently updates the stored LRU information, such that a combined data validity/full LRU cache update protocol is supported.

    摘要: A method and circuit for dynamically changing the frequency of clock signals. The method including: detecting an edge of a first clock signal operating at a first frequency using a second clock signal operating at a second frequency; detecting an edge of the second clock signal using the first clock signal; detecting coincident edges of the first and the second clock signals; and changing the second frequency to a third frequency different from the second frequency upon detection of the coincident edges.

    摘要: In one general embodiment, a design structure is provided including a first delay line having at least one buffer, the first delay line being for shifting a clock, a second delay line having at least one buffer, the second delay line being for shifting data, and a logic block adapted to identify a predetermined section of a data window. Additionally, the logic block monitors a clock signal along predetermined portions of the delay line to identify the predetermined section of the data window. Once the predetermined section of the data window is identified the logic block forwards the data associated with the predetermined section to an output pin, with the proviso that no memory element is present, and with the proviso that no feedback line is present.

    摘要: A clock generator having a deskewer is disclosed. The clock generator includes a waveform generator and a deskewer. Clocked by an input clock signal, the waveform generator generates a waveform signal. The deskewer circuit, which is connected to the waveform generator, gates the waveform signal from the waveform generator with the input clock signal to produce an output clock signal such that the output clock signal has less skew with respect to the input clock signal.

    摘要: An integrated cache architecture that has low power consumption, high noise immunity, and full support of an integrated validity/LRU cache write mode. A first plurality of memory cells coupled to the master word lines stores access information corresponding to a plurality of data words stored in a second plurality a memory cells coupled to a plurality of local word lines. The cache stores tag, index and Least Recently Used (LRU) information directly on a master word line, and cache line data on local word lines. The access information is made available early in the cycle, allowing the cache to disable local word lines that are not needed. By laying out the master and local word lines in a metal layer that substantially renders the stored data immune to overlaying noise sources, high frequency interconnections can be made over the cache without disturbing the stored data. The cache includes circuitry for efficiently updating the stored LRU information, such that a combined data validity/full LRU cache update protocol is supported.
