摘要:
An off-chip driver (OCD) circuit and technique to reduce skew between rising and falling edges of output signals as process conditions vary are provided. Variations in process conditions may result in stronger or weaker relative current drive between NMOS and PMOS transistors. One or more process-dependent compensating current paths may be added to conventional pull-up and/or pull-down current paths to compensate for process variations by supplementing the current drive of transistors used to charge (PMOS) or discharge (NMOS) an output node of and end driver (e.g., inverter) stage of an OCD.

A memory device includes a delay-locked loop circuit having delay elements and a synchronization circuit coupled to the delay-locked loop circuit. The synchronization circuit receives a synchronization enable signal and outputs a plurality of enable signals, including an enable signal coupled to an output circuit. Because the enable signal is synchronized with the read signal, it is possible to provide more time to read data into the buffer. A method of reading data from a memory device couples a synchronization enable signal and an external clock signal to a synchronization circuit. A read signal and an output enable are generated based upon a synchronization enable signal and a delayed clock signal of the external clock signal. Because the output signal is synchronized to the read signal, more time is allowed for the sense function.

Systems and methods may enable customers to reserve time slots at charging stations for recharging electric vehicles. The systems and methods may include receiving, from a customer computing device associated with a customer, a reservation inquiry to access a charging station to recharge an electric vehicle; providing, to the customer computing device, a respective cost for accessing the charging station during one or more available time periods; receiving a selection from the customer computing device for at least a portion of the available time periods; and delivering, to the customer computing device, a reservation confirmation for the selected time period.

A method and circuit for controlling an output reference voltage generated by a reference voltage generator disposed on a memory device are provided. A signal for enabling a clocked standby mode of the memory device is received. If the signal indicates that the memory device is in the clocked standby mode, a first reference voltage is generated as the output reference voltage of the reference voltage generator using a first voltage. If the signal indicates that the memory device is not in the clocked standby mode, a second reference voltage is generated as the output reference voltage of the reference voltage generator using a second voltage.

Methods and apparatuses for adjusting trim settings for internally generated voltages of an integrated circuit device are provided. In one embodiment the apparatus receives a target digital value for an internally generated voltage, and compares the target digital value to a current digital value for the internally generated voltage. If the comparison indicates that a difference between the target digital value and the current digital value is greater than an allowable threshold, a trim setting used to trim the internally generated voltage is adjusted based on the difference. The trim setting may be adjusted until the difference between the target digital value and the current digital value is less than or equal to the allowable threshold.

A self-alignment system for complement clock signals includes a first delay circuit and a second delay circuit. A first clock signal may be propagated through the first delay circuit and a second clock signal may be propagated through the second delay circuit. A propagation delay of each of the first and second delay circuits may be selectively varied as a function of the first and second clock signals.

The present invention relates to a memory device which enables a greater amount of time to read data into a buffer. In particular, a memory device according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a delay-locked loop circuit having a plurality of delay elements and a synchronization circuit coupled to the delay-locked loop circuit. The synchronization circuit also receives a synchronization enable signal and outputs a plurality of enable signals, including an enable signal coupled to an output circuit. Because the enable signal coupled to the output circuit is synchronized with the read signal, it is possible to provide more time to read data into the buffer. According to another aspect of the present invention, a method of reading data from a memory device couples a synchronization enable signal to a synchronization circuit. An external clock signal is also coupled to a delay-locked loop circuit. A read signal is generated based upon a synchronization enable signal and a delayed clock signal of the external clock signal. An output enable is also generated based upon the synchronization enable signal and a delayed clock signal of the external clock signal. Because the output signal is synchronized to the read signal, more time is allowed for the sense function.
