    摘要: A powering circuit for a diode light source includes an inductor charged through an on/off switch. The charging occurs during a charging cycle for a controllable amount of time when the on/off switch is closed. The energy of the charged inductor is used to power the semiconductor light source by opening the on/off switch. In such a driving configuration, the ringing is nearly constant and thus may be suppressed using an appropriately configured circuit.

    摘要: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a high-performance clock-gating circuit are described. A first pull-down stack receives enable and pulse signals on gates of N-type transistors which pull down an output node when the enable and pulse signals are both high. A pull-up transistor coupled to the output node receives a clock signal which turns off the pull-up transistor when the clock signal is high. A first pull-up stack receives the inverted pulse signal and the enable signal on gates of P-type transistors to cause the output node to be high when the enable signal and inverted pulse signal are low. A second pull-up stack maintains a high voltage on the output node after the pulse event has ended but while the clock signal is still high. A second pull-down stack maintains a low voltage on the output node after the pulse event but while the clock remains high.
