    Abstract: A circuit for generating clock signals enabling the latching of data is described. The circuit comprises a pulse generator coupled to receive an input clock signal at an input and to generate an output clock signal at an output; a latch circuit coupled to receive the output clock signal; and a pulse shaping circuit coupled to receive a feedback signal; wherein a pulse width of the output clock signal is determined by the feedback signal and the input signal coupled to the pulse generator. A method of generating clock signals enabling the latching of data is also described.

    Abstract: A circuit for controlling power within an integrated circuit comprises a plurality of circuit blocks; a global control signal routed within the integrated circuit; and a plurality of power control blocks. Each power control block is coupled to a corresponding circuit block of the plurality of circuit bocks and has a first input coupled to receive a reference voltage and a second input coupled to receive the global control signal. The global control signal enables, for each circuit block, the coupling of the reference voltage to the corresponding circuit block. A method of controlling power within an integrated circuit is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A yield recovery scheme for configuration memory of an IC device includes asserting an override configuration value on a bitline of memory cells of the configuration memory, where a data node of a faulty one of the memory cells is coupled to a node of configurable circuitry of the IC device, and asserting a wordline of the faulty memory cell while the override configuration value is asserted on the bitline to couple the bitline to the node of the configurable circuitry through the faulty memory cell (i.e., to force a state of the data node to the override configuration value). An identifier of the faulty memory cell may be stored on the IC device (e.g., E-fuses), and control circuitry of the IC device may retrieve the identifier to configure override circuitry of the IC device.

    Abstract: A universal interposer for an integrated circuit (IC) device has a body having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A first region is formed on a first side of the body along a first edge. The first region has first slots, each having an identical first bond pad layout. A second region is formed on the first side along a second edge, opposite the first edge. The second region has second slots having an identical second bond pad layout. A third region having third slots is formed on the first side between the first and second regions, each slot having an identical third bond pad layout. A pad density of the third bond pad layout is greater than the first bond pad layout. One of the third slots is coupled to contact pads disposed in a region not directly below any of the second slots.
