    摘要: An electronic data processing circuit uses current mode signalling on a communication conductor, wherein a receiver supplies current to the communication conductor to try and keep a voltage on the conductor constant and measures the current that is needed to do so. A transition coding circuit is coupled between a data source circuit and the communication conductor, for driving the communication conductor in a first state in pulses in response to transitions in the logic signal and in a second state outside the pulses. The level that is used for indicating no change is selected so the current that needs to be supplied by the receiver is smaller when no change is signalled than when a change is signalled. Preferably only a nearly zero quiescent current is needed when there is no change.

    摘要: To prevent breakdown of an insulating layer located underneath a gate electrode, the gate electrode is connected to an external terminal via a high-ohmic resistor. The high-ohmic resistor may form part of a resistive network for biasing voltages for a plurality of gate electrodes. The resistive network may be realised partly on the insulating layer.

    摘要: A linear-gain amplifier arrangement comprises a current amplifying cell consisting of field-effect transistors and comprising a first (M1, M3) and a second (M2, M4current-mirror circuit whose respective input transistors (M1; M2) and output transistors (M3; M4) constitute a first and a second differential pair. The input transistors (M1; M2) have their drain electrodes connected to voltage-current converter (V/I) made up of field-effect transistors. The V/I converter supplies difference currents (I.sub.in1 ; I.sub.in2) which are square-law functions of the input voltage (U.sub.in) to be amplified. The difference between these input currents is a linear function of the input voltage. When the transistors are operated in their saturation regions the difference between the output currents (I.sub.out1 ; I.sub.out2) is also a linear function of the input voltage (U.sub.in). By adding a direct voltage (V.sub.c) to the gate-source voltage of the input and output transistors or by adding a direct current (I.sub.c) to the respective input currents (I.sub.in1 ; I.sub.in2) the gain can be varied without a change in bandwidth. When the arrangement is constructed as an integrated semiconductor circuit its gain can be made immune to temperature variations and tolerances in the fabrication process.

    摘要: The first (T.sub.1) and the second (T.sub.2) output transistor of an amplifier arrangement are push-pull driven by means of a drive circuit (10) having two transistors (T.sub.11, T.sub.12) which are each loaded by a current source (T.sub.13, T.sub.14). Currents which are a measure of the currents flowing through the first (T.sub.1) and the second (T.sub.2) output transistor are generated by first (20) and second (30) current measuring means. These currents are applied to a control circuit (40) which controls the current intensity of the current sources (T.sub.13, T.sub.14) in such a way that the harmonic mean value of the currents flowing through the first (T.sub.1) and the second (T.sub.2) output transistor is substantially equal to a reference value.

    摘要: As technology scales, on-chip interconnects are becoming narrower, and the height of such interconnects is not scaling linearly with the width. This leads to an increase of coupling capacitance with neighboring wires, leading to higher crosstalk. It also leads to poor performance due to poor RC response at the receiving of the wire, which may even result in failure in very noisy environments. An adaptive threshold scheme is proposed in which receiver switching thresholds are adjusted according to the detected noise in bus lines. These noise levels are dependent on both the front-end processing (transistor performance) as well as on the backend processing (metal resistance, capacitance, width and spacing). The circuit therefore automatically compensates for process variations.

    摘要: A memory in an integrated circuit contains a current sense amplifier. The current sense amplifier contains a first and second input transistor with cross-coupled gates and drains, each transistor having a source coupled to a respective memory bit line. The current from the drains of the first and second input transistor is guided to source-drain channels of the first and second load transistor respectively. The drains of the first and second input transistor are coupled to a common node via source-gate links of the first and second load transistor respectively. The gate/source voltage drops of the first and second load transistor are arranged in a direction opposite to a direction of gate/source voltage drops of the first and second input transistor between the complementary bit lines and the common node.
