    摘要: A structure and associated method to control a flow of data on a semiconductor device. A transmitter, receiver and transmission line are formed within the semiconductor device. The transmitter, receiver, and transmission line are adapted to control data transfer between a first core and a second core within the semiconductor device. The transmitter is adapted to send a signal over the transmission line to the receiver adapted to receive the signal. The receiver is further adapted to create an impedance mismatch to indicate that the second core is unable to transfer the data. The transmitter is adapted to detect the impedance mismatch.

    摘要: A test board includes a plurality of sockets for connection to a plurality of integrated circuit chips to be tested. A test control device on the board turns on at least one test engine for testing the plurality of chips simultaneously. A checking circuit verifies the functionality of each chip by comparing outputs of chips with each other or with a golden chip. Failing Chips are disconnected from further testing and passing or failing chips are recorded.

    摘要: An electrical wiring structure and a computer system for designing the electrical wiring structure. The electrical wiring structure includes a wire pair. The wire pair includes a first wire and a second wire. The second wire is slated for being tri-stated. The wire pair has a same-direction switching probability φSD per clock cycle that is no less than a pre-selected minimum same-direction switching probability φSD,MIN or has an opposite-direction switching probability φOD per clock cycle that is no less than a pre-selected minimum opposite-direction switching probability φOD,MIN. The first wire and the second wire satisfies at least one mathematical relationship involving LCOMMON and WSPACING, where WSPACING is defined as a spacing between the first wire and the second wire, and LCOMMON is defined as a common run length of the first wire and the second wire.

    摘要: An integrated circuit (IC) chip containing a plurality of voltage islands containing corresponding functional blocks that can be selectively fenced, i.e., powered down, while saving the states of the corresponding inputs, and unfenced in order to manage power consumption of the chip. Each fencable functional block includes a power switch and state-saving circuitry for saving the state of the inputs to that functional block. A power modulation unit (PMU) generates fencing signals that control the power switches and state-saving circuitries so as to selectively fence the corresponding functional blocks. The PMU generates the fencing signals as a function of one or more operating arguments.

    摘要: An integrated circuit (IC) chip (100) containing a plurality of voltage islands (124I-M) containing corresponding functional blocks (104I-M) that can be selectively fenced, i.e., powered down, while saving the states of the corresponding inputs, and unfenced in order to manage power consumption of the chip. Each fencable functional block includes a power switch (140I-M) and state-saving circuitry (148I-M) for saving the state of the inputs to that functional block. A power modulation unit (PMU) (132) generates fencing signals (144I-M) that control the power switches and state-saving circuitries so as to selectively fence the corresponding functional blocks. The PMU generates the fencing signals as a function of one or more operating arguments.
