    摘要: A true random number generator comprises a ring oscillator which is triggered to start oscillating in a first mode of oscillation at an oscillation start time. The first mode of oscillation will eventually collapse to a second mode of oscillation dependent on thermal noise. A collapse time from the oscillation start time to the time at which the oscillator collapses to the second mode is measured, and this can be used to determine a random number. The TRNG can be synthesized entirely using standard digital techniques and is able to provide high randomness, good throughput and energy efficiency.

    摘要: A memory cell 36 within an integrated circuit memory is provided with an access controller 32 coupled to a first pass gate 38 and a second pass gate 40. During a write access to the memory cell 38 both the first pass gate 38 and the second pass gate 40 are opened. During a read access, the first pass gate 38 is opened and the second pass gate 40 is closed. This asymmetry in the read and write operations permits an asymmetry in the gates forming the memory cell 36 thereby permitting changes to increase both read robustness and write robustness. The asymmetry in the design parameters of different gates can take the form of varying the gate length, the gate width and the threshold voltage so as to vary the conductance of different gates to suit their individual role within the memory cell 36 which is operating in the asymmetric manner provided by the separate word line signals driving read operations and write operations.

    摘要: Crossbar circuitry, and a method of operation of such crossbar circuitry, are provided. The crossbar circuitry has an array of data input paths and data output paths where the data output paths are transverse to the data input paths. At each intersection between a data input path and a data output path, a crossbar cell is provided that comprises a configuration storage circuit programmable to store a routing value, a transmission circuit, and an arbitration circuit. In a transmission mode of operation, the transmission circuit is responsive to the routing value being a first value, indicating that the data input path should be coupled to the data output path, to detect the data input along the data input path, and to output an indication of that data on the data output path at the associated intersection.
