摘要:
In one aspect, circuitry for a digital logic function includes a first pair of input nodes for receiving respective first and second input signals, a second pair of input nodes for receiving respective complements of the first and second input signals, and an output node. The circuitry has a plurality of PFET-NFET pass gates. Such a pass gate has a first conducting electrode of the pass gate PFET connected to a first conducting electrode of the pass gate NFET, providing a first conducting node of the pass gate, and a second conducting electrode of the pass gate PFET connected to a second conducting electrode of the pass gate NFET, providing a second conducting node of the pass gate. The input nodes are connected to first conducting nodes of respective ones of the plurality of pass gates, and the second conducting nodes of the plurality of pass gates are connected to the circuitry output node.

A method for generating a dual rate clock circuit the method including coupling the output terminal of a first local clock buffer to the input of a second local clock buffer through at least one inverter circuit and driving the first local clock buffer with a base signal. The method also includes generating an early clock signal with the first local clock buffer based on the base signal and generating a delayed early clock signal by delaying the first local clock signal with the at least one inverter. The method also includes generating a later clock signal by driving the second local clock buffer with the delayed early clock signal wherein the second local clock buffer and the late clock signal generated by the second local clock buffer are synchronized and correlated with the first local clock buffer and the early clock signal generated by the first local clock buffer.

A dynamic logical circuit having a pre-charge element separately controlled by a voltage-asymmetric clock controlled provides increased noise immunity in dynamic digital circuits. By clocking the pre-charge element with a signal having a reduced swing in the voltage direction that turns off the pre-charge element, the pre-charge element provides a small current that prevents the dynamic summing node of a gate from erroneously evaluating due to noise, and eliminates the need for a keeper device. Providing the reduced-swing asymmetric clock as a separate signal prevents performance degradation in the rest of the circuit. Specifically, the foot devices in the dynamic portion of the circuit are controlled with the full swing clock so that evaluation is not compromised by noise or slowed. Foot and pull-up devices in any static portion of the circuit are also controlled with the full-swing clock so that switching speed and leakage immunity are not affected.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for performing bit-aligned permute are disclosed. A select register, a pair of data registers and a target register are provided. The entries of the select register is preloaded with a set of bit indices. Each of the bit indices points to a desired bit location within the data registers. The byte information stored in the data registers are then copied to the target register according to the bit indices within the select register.
