摘要:
A push-pull output circuit which is powered by a 5-V supply voltage and in which the "push" part comprises a PMOS transistor and the "pull" comprises a PMOS transistor and an NMOS transistor. The NMOS transistor is driven via a detection circuit so that no hot carrier stress occurs in the NMOS transistor.

A semiconductor integrated circuit including a detection circuit (e.g. an address transition detector) for detecting a change of a first and a second input signal. The detection circuit includes a first and a second resettable delay circuit and a gate circuit which is connected thereto. The gate circuit receives directly both the input signals and the output signals of the delay circuits for promptly outputting an output pulse signal with a minimum duration T for all durations of input signals.

An integrated circuit having logic circuits and a logic output buffer, which circuit includes the following sub-circuits: a memory circuit and a logic output circuit, in which no tri-state occurs at the output during a sequence of data signals at the input, wherein the drive of the circuit by means of control signals is not critical over time because the first data signal from the sequence switches off the tri-state mode, the tri-state mode again being introduced if a control signal is furnished, and in the absence of this control signal, the last data signal is retained.

An encryption chip is programmable to process a variety of secret key and public key encryption algorithms. The chip includes a pipeline of processing elements, each of which can process a round within a secret key algorithm. Data is transferred between the processing elements through dual port memories. A central processing unit allows for processing of very wide data words from global memory in single cycle operations. An adder circuit is simplified by using plural relatively small adder circuits with sums and carries looped back in plural cycles. Multiplier circuitry can be shared between the processing elements and the central processor by adapting the smaller processing element multipliers for concatenation as a very wide central processor multiplier.

In an integrated circuit random access memory internally a xn (n>1) organization is realized, that externally translates to a x1 organization. The n data bits read in parallel are successively and selectively activated and after multiplexing buffered in sequence. Upon buffering but not yet outputting the last data bit of a read address, the next read address may be applied. In this way a multi-address page mode or cross address nibble mode is realized. For writing, a resettable data input delay buffer maintains sufficient margin for both Tdh and Tdv in that any old data is deactivated before new data appears. In this way an equalization pulse no longer is required.

An integrated logic circuit includes an output circuit for generating an output current which increases linearly in time. In integrated logic circuits the problem presents itself that the rapid variation of the (dis) charging of a data output causes a reverse voltage pulse VL across the inductance formed by the connection wires. The reverse voltage is limited by causing the charge or discharge current (for the load capacities present) to increase linearly to a maximum permissible value. This is done by driving the output field effect transistor with a control voltage VC which varies in time in the form of a square root.

摘要:
A front end tuner for receiving TV signals and the like includes a frequency conversion circuit including a mixer for beating a local signal with received signals within a predetermined band of frequencies to provide selected signals within a predetermined band of frequencies to provide selected signals within a predetermined channel band of frequencies. A signal converter circuit generates digitally encoded signal representations of the selected signals. The frequency conversion circuit and the signal converter circuit are in a form of an integrated circuit within a semiconductor substrate. In a TV receiver, on-following digital processing of the digitally encoded signals is performed in a microcomputer. In one example a channel selection code is used by the microcomputer to synthesize the local oscillator signal and in another example the signal converter circuit is a codec, responsive to codes from the microprocessor, to supply a control voltage for controlling a local oscillator. From time to time channel selection is automatically fine tuned.

When using a laser programmable fuse, a circuit should be 100% stable both before and after the fuse is blown. So far no CMOS circuit can be 100% stable without drawing a constant current. With the "Master fuse Enable" scheme one fuse circuit (master fuse) draws current while disabling all other fuse circuits on-chip. Thus giving 100% stability and reducing power consumption on a chip where no fusing has been done. If, however, one wished to use the rest of the fuses, then the master fuse is blown and all fuse circuits now become active and draw current.
