    Abstract: A search engine system (100) compares search key values to stored entry values, and includes first blocks of entries (102) and second blocks of entries (104). First blocks of entries (102) can be “search” blocks that can provide a relatively fast search speed of stored data value, and each store a unique first portion of one or more entry values. Second blocks of entries (104) can be randomly accessible entries logically arranged into search nodes that each correspond to a first portion of an entry value stored in the first block of entries. Each search node can include one or more second portions of an entry value.

    Abstract: A method of testing a semiconductor device having a pipelined architecture. Operation of a first pipeline stage of the semiconductor is disabled during a first pipelined operation to establish test data at an input of a second pipeline stage of the semiconductor device. A second pipelined operation is executed to enable the second pipeline stage to generate an intermediate result using the test data. A final result of the second pipelined operation is evaluated to determine whether the second pipeline stage produced a correct intermediate result.

    Abstract: A frequency synthesis circuit includes a phase locked loop and an interpolator circuit. The phase locked loop circuit receives a reference clock and a feedback clock and generates an output clock with a frequency based on the reference clock and the feedback clock. An interpolator circuit is coupled in the feedback path of the phase locked loop circuit. An interpolator control circuit generates an interpolator control word that specifies a variable time delay for the interpolator circuit. The interpolator circuit receives the output clock, and generates the feedback clock by introducing a variable time delay in the output clock in accordance with the interpolator control word. The time variable delay varies the frequency of the output circuit. Embodiments for frequency synthesis circuits that include a spread spectrum frequency clock generator, frequency modulators, and a fixed frequency clock generator circuit are disclosed.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a content addressable memory (CAM) device (100) may include a number of segments (102 or 104). Search target compare circuits (110 and 112) can compare a target value TARGET to programmable information values (PIV0 and PIV1) associated with a particular segment (102 and 104). If a search target value TARGET matches a programmable information value (PIV0 and PIV1), search operations may be performed in a segment (102 or 104). If a search target value TARGET does not match a programmable information value, (PIV0 and PIV1), search operations may be prevented within a segment (102 or 104).

    Abstract: An integrated circuit device for delivering power to a load includes a P-MOS power transistor, an N-MOS bypass transistor and a gate driver circuit. The P-MOS power transistor is coupled between a supply voltage node and a power output node of the integrated circuit device, and the N-MOS bypass transistor is coupled between the power output node and a reference node of the integrated circuit device. The gate driver circuit responds to a pulse-width-modulated (PWM) control signal by outputting an active-low drive-enable signal to a gate terminal of the P-MOS power transistor and an active-high bypass-enable signal to a gate terminal of the N-MOS bypass transistor during respective, non-overlapping intervals.
