    Abstract: Embodiments include a pattern matching circuit that implements a Bloom filter including one or more hash functions. The hash functions may generate respective addresses corresponding to bits of a memory array. Various techniques for improving the area and/or power efficiency of the pattern matching circuit are disclosed. For example, a number of logic 1 bits per column of hash matrixes associated with the one or more hash functions may be restricted to a pre-defined number. A plurality of addresses generated by the hash functions may use the same column address to correspond to bits of a same column. A single read port memory may be used to simultaneously read two bits and generate an output signal that indicates whether the two bits are both a first logic value. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a multi-bit flip-flop circuit which uses unidirectional transistors to allow sharing of transistors among a set of flip-flops, while avoiding charge sharing within or between the flip-flops. Clock devices in the circuit can be shared to reduce the clock transistor gate capacitance and associated power consumption. The shared transistors can provide keeper circuits and/or tri-state inverters in a primary latch and a secondary latch in each flip-flop. One example implementation uses tri-state keeper sharing. Another example implementation uses tri-state keeper and/or pass gate sharing. Another example implementation uses pass gate sharing and no keeper.

    Abstract: Some embodiments include apparatus and methods using an input stage and an output stage of a circuit. The input stage operates to receive an input signal and a clock signal and to provide an internal signal at an internal node based at least in part on the input signal. The input signal has levels in a first voltage range. The internal signal has levels in a second voltage range greater than the first voltage range. The output stage operates to receive the internal signal, the clock signal, and an additional signal generated based on the input signal. The output stage provides an output signal based at least in part on the input signal and the additional signal. The output signal has a third voltage range greater than the first voltage range.
