摘要:
An integrated circuit device includes functional logic, an anti-noise machine, and state monitoring points providing the anti-noise machine with an interface to the functional logic for monitoring states of the functional logic. The anti-noise machine includes indicia defining noise precursor states for the functional logic, and recognition logic coupled to the state monitoring points. The anti-noise machine is operable to generate anti-noise responsive to the recognition logic detecting in the functional logic noise precursor states matching the indicia.

A proactive noise suppression system and method for a power supply network of an integrated circuit. The system and method include receiving an IC event sequence to a memory element, correlating the IC event sequence to a storage location in a second memory element, the storage location including an anti-noise response signature, and utilizing the anti-noise response signature to proactively generate an anti-noise response in a power supply network in at least a portion of the integrated circuit at about the time of execution of the first IC event sequence. Anti-noise response signatures may be adaptively updated and/or created based on noise measurements made corresponding to execution of an IC event sequence by the integrated circuit.

摘要:
A method and system for reducing clock noises are disclosed. A clock signal includes active edges and inactive edges. Inactive edges produce clock noise but are not critical to the functionality of the clock signal. That is, only active edges are critical to proper timing of an integrated circuit (IC). As such, inactive edges of clock signals to clocked elements of an IC may be shifted to be misaligned to one another. As a consequence, peak noise produced by the inactive edges will be spread over a large area and therefore will be reduced in amplitude.

A method, system and computer program product reducing clock noise generated by clock signals in an integrated circuit (IC) are disclosed. Conventional IC design attempts to ensure coincident clock active edge arrival times for all clocked elements. The coincident active clock edges generate coincident noise currents, which elevates the total noise current. The current invention assigns clock arrival times for clocked elements of an IC based on a desired clock arrival time distribution such that active clock edges are not coincident. As a consequence, the total noise would be spread over a large portion of the clock cycle, thus reducing the noise magnitude substantially.

A design structure for eliminating step response power supply perturbation during voltage island power-up/power-down on an integrated circuit is disclosed. An IC chip communicates with a primary power supply and includes at least one voltage island. A primary header on the voltage island of the chip communicates with the primary power supply via a primary header power path. A secondary header on the voltage island of the chip communicates with a secondary power supply via a secondary header power path. A control decoder communicating with the IC chip and the voltage island regulates the state of the primary and secondary headers.
