    摘要: An integrated processor design includes physical interface macros supporting heterogeneous electrical properties. The processor design comprises a plurality of processing cores and a plurality of physical interfaces to connect to a memory interface, a peripheral component interconnect express (PCI Express or PCIe) interface for input/output, an Ethernet interface for network communication, and/or a serial attached SCSI (SAS) interface for storage. Each physical interface may be programmatically connected to a selected interface controller, such as a memory controller, a PCI Express controller, or an Ethernet controller, for example. A plurality of such controllers may be connected to a switch within the processor design, with the switch also being connected to each physical interface macro. Thus, the physical interface macros may be programmatically connected to a subset of the plurality of controllers.

    摘要: A signal history controlled slew-rate transmission method and bus interface transmitter provide an improved channel equalization mechanism having low complexity. A variable slew-rate feed-forward pre-emphasis circuit changes the slew rate of the applied pre-emphasis in conformity with the history of the transmitted signal. The pre-emphasis circuit may be implemented by a pair of current sources supplying the output of the transmitter, and having differing current values. The current sources are controlled such that upon a signal value change, a high slew rate is provided and when the signal value does not change for two consecutive signal periods, the slew rate is reduced. A current source having a controlled magnitude may be employed to provide a slew rate that changes over time and is continuously reduced until another transmission value change occurs.

    摘要: An amplifier circuit comprises first and second gain cells connected in cascade. Each of the gain cells comprises first and second common emitter differential transistors, a current source coupled to the emitters of the transistors, a first plurality of forward biased, series diodes connected between a power supply terminal and a base of the first transistor, and a second plurality of forward biased, series diodes connected between the power supply terminal and a base of the second transistor. A collector of the first transistor of the first gain cell is connected to the base of the first transistor of the second gain cell, and a collector of the second transistor of a first gain cell is connected to the base of the second transistor of the second gain cell. Because of the low inherent resistance of the biasing diodes, the operating speed of the amplifier is large, and the current amplification can be large without exceeding the power supply voltage. The current source limits the gain for high level signals without causing saturation of the transistors and therefore, does not comprise operating speed. The gain of each cell equals the numbers of diodes connected to the base of the transistor until the level of the current source.

    摘要: An embodiment of the invention comprises a digital phase detector with substantially zero phase offset. The digital phase detector receives a clock signal and a reference clock signal and provides a phase indicator signal to identify whether the clock signal leads or lags the reference clock signal. An embodiment of the invention comprises a method that adds substantially zero phase offset in processing an input clock signal and a delayed clock signal to generate a control signal. The control signal is processed in a variable delay line to generate the delayed clock signal. In an embodiment, a first processor comprises a delay locked loop having a digital phase detector, the digital phase detector comprising a first differential sense amplifier cross-coupled to a second differential sense amplifier, the digital phase detector receiving a clock signal and generating one or more delayed clock signals, a control signal, and a gated data signal.
