    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for mapping logic functions from logic elements (“LEs”) into synchronous embedded memory blocks (“EMBs”) of programmable logic devices (“PLDs”). This technique increases the amount of logic that can fit into the PLD. Where area savings are significant, smaller PLDs may be selected to implement a particular circuit. One aspect of the invention relates to methods for identifying sequential cones of logic that may be mapped into synchronous EMBs. After the sequential logic cones are identified for mapping into a synchronous EMB, the logic cone may be selected, expanded, restructured, and retimed, as necessary, to implement the mapping. Another aspect of the invention relates to techniques for handling architectural restrictions of synchronous EMBs, such as the inability to implement the asynchronous behavior of synchronous logic.

    摘要: When digital data is to be copy protected at a processing station, for example, prior to its encoding and recording onto an optical disc, it is necessary to control a compliant encoder to utilise copy protection files to perform the copy protection routine. To ensure that the digital data is reliably copy protected, predetermined noise signals are incorporated into the digital data and the processing steps which add the copy protection are additionally caused to remove the noise signals. By this means, if the digital data is not copy protected, the noise signals remain. This enables non-copy protected digital data to be readily identified and ensures that it is effectively unusable to a consumer.
