    Abstract: Disclosed is a computer implemented method and computer program product to determine metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gate functional limitations. A simulator obtains a plurality of slices of a MOS gate, the slices each comprising at least one parameter, the parameter comprising a slice gate width and a slice gate length. The simulator determines a current for each slice based on a slice gate length of the slice to form a length-based current for each slice. The simulator determines a length-based current for the MOS gate by summing the length-based current for each slice. The simulator calculates a stress profile for each slice. The simulator determines a slice carrier mobility for each slice based on the stress profile of each slice. The simulator determines a carrier mobility-based current for each slice, based on each slice carrier mobility. The simulator determines a carrier mobility for the MOS gate based on the carrier mobility-based current for each slice. The simulator determines an effective length for the MOS gate based on the length-based current.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a digital-based mechanism for adjusting the power consumption in an integrated digital circuit such as a processor. The processor includes one or more functional units and a digital throttle that monitors activity states of the processor's functional units to estimate the processor's power consumption. One embodiment of the digital throttle includes one or more gate units, a monitor circuit, and a throttle circuit. Each gate unit controls the delivery of power delivery to a functional unit of the processor and provides a signal that indicates the activity state of its associated functional unit. The monitor circuit determines an estimated power consumption level from the signals and compares the estimated power consumption with a threshold power level. The throttle circuit adjusts the instruction flow in the processor if the estimated power consumption level exceeds the threshold power level.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a virtual output queue (VoQ) from a received set of data packets in a multi-service system. Each packet is divided into at least one partition, including a last partition that includes packet information, such as error status and packet length. The system receives the packet from a flow, parses the packet into partitions, including a first partition and the last partition, places each last partition into a linked list based on a time when the last partition was received, links the last partition to the first partition, and employs the linked list as the output queue. This system allows for rapid compilation and transmission of different sized packets, and obviates the need for the receiving processor to wait for the last partition to discard a bad packet.

    Abstract: A mechanism is provided for reducing the power consumption of a register file by disabling unused register file read ports. A selected entry of the register file is hardwired to zero and the address of the selected entry is driven to the address decoder of the register file in response to a power-down condition. The power-down condition occurs when, for example, no valid address is driven to the read port, i.e. the read port is unused. For one embodiment of the invention, the selected entry is the zeroth entry of the register file, and the address lines are grounded when an address valid bit associated with the read port is not asserted.
