    摘要: Circuits, methods, and apparatus for filtering signals at a high-speed data interface. One exemplary embodiment is particularly configured to filter a clock signal at the end of a data burst received by a double-data rate memory interface. A clock input port is either connected or disconnected to an input cell. When a data burst is to be received, the clock input port is connected to the input cell. When the data burst concludes, the clock input port is disconnected from the input cell. In a specific embodiment, a signal is received indicating that a data burst is about to begin and the clock input port is connected to the input cell. The signal later changes state indicating that the last data bit is being received. When the last clock edge corresponding to the last data bit is received, the clock input port is disconnected from the input cell.

    摘要: Electronic design automation (“EDA) methods and systems for structured ASICs include accessing or receiving objects representative of source code for a structured ASIC. The objects are flattened to remove hierarchies associated with the source code, such as functional RTL hierarchies. The flattened objects are clustered to accommodate design constraints associated with the structured ASIC. The clustered objects are floorplanned within a design area of the structured ASIC. The objects are then placed within the portions of the design areas assigned to the corresponding clusters. The objects optionally include logic objects and one or more memory objects and/or proprietary objects, wherein the one or more memory objects and/or proprietary objects are placed concurrently with the logic objects.

A network of resistors are formed on an integrated circuit (IC) to provide on-chip impedance termination to differential input/output (IO) pins. Transistors are coupled in the network of termination resistors. The transistors provide additional termination impedance to the differential IO pins. The transistors can be turned ON or OFF separately to change the impedance termination.

    摘要: A two-step ripple-free multi-phase buck converter and method thereof comprises a first-stage voltage regulator to convert an input voltage to an intermediate voltage and a second-stage voltage regulator with a phase number not less than two to further convert the intermediate voltage to an output voltage by a split phase control, in which the ratio of the intermediate voltage to the output voltage is intended to the phase number such that the steady state output current of the converter approaches to be ripple-free, and hence the drivers and MOSFETs for the second-stage voltage regulator are lower cost, the efficiency of the second-stage voltage regulator is improved, and a higher slew rate current is obtained for transient driving capabilities.

    摘要: Integrated circuits with on-chip impedance matching techniques, which greatly reduce the number of off-chip resistors that are coupled to the integrated circuit, are provided. On-chip impedance matching circuits of the present invention are associated with each of a plurality of I/O pins on an integrated circuit. Circuitry of the present invention may include a resistor divider that has a resistor and an on-chip transistor. The resistance of the on-chip transistor and a voltage output signal of the resistor divider vary with process, temperature, and voltage of the integrated circuit. The effective channel W/L ratio of the impedance matching circuit changes in response to the voltage output signal of the resistor divider, so that changes in the impedance of the impedance matching circuit caused by the variations in process, temperature, and voltage are minimized.

    摘要: The system and method is used for CAV (Constant Angular Velocity) control format recording, whereas the existing disk data is recorded under CLV (Constant Linear Velocity) control format recording. When the PUH receives a laser driver signal, it generates a feed signal and a wobble signal. The feed signal is received by the automatic power control; thereafter the automatic power control generates a first control signal used for causing the laser driver to adjust the laser driver signal. After the ATIP decoder receives the wobble signal, the ATIP decoder generates and outputs ATIP decoded data to the CLV value detector. The CLV value detector receives ATIP decoded data and generates a CLV decoded data to the laser power control. The laser power control receives the CLV decoded data and generates a second control signal used for causing the automatic power control to adjust the first control signal.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for current balance in a multi-phase DC-to-DC converter with a converter output voltage and a plurality of channel currents employs for each channel a multi-input pulse width modulator or an ordinary pulse width modulator in conjunction with a multi-input comparator to produce a respective PWM signal to regulate the corresponding channel current. In addition to the comparison of the converter output voltage with a reference signal to produce an error signal, the apparatus and method compares the error signal with a ramp signal and the corresponding channel current with each of the other channel currents with the multi-input pulse width modulator. Alternatively, a ramp signal is compared by the ordinary pulse width modulator with a signal derived from the multi-input comparator which subtracts the corresponding channel current from each other channel current and sums the error signal.
