摘要:
A serial communications architecture for communicating between hosts and data store devices. The Storage Link architecture is specially adapted to support communications between multiple hosts and storage devices via a switching network, such as a storage area network. The Storage Link architecture specifies various communications techniques that can be combined to reduce the overall cost and increase the overall performance of communications. The Storage Link architecture may provide packet ordering based on packet type, dynamic segmentation of packets, asymmetric packet ordering, packet nesting, variable-sized packet headers, and use of out-of-band symbols to transmit control information as described below in more detail. The Storage Link architecture may also specify encoding techniques to optimize transitions and to ensure DC-balance.

摘要:
A technique for removing vertical stripe artifacts generated in a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) panel, more particularly a technique for compensating for and removing an inter-channel offset voltage of a column driver, which causes the vertical stripe artifacts, is disclosed. An offset voltage generated in each channel for driving each pixel of the LCD panel is detected for a whole signal path and offset voltages detected for all channels are compared and extracted according to a given timing sequence by a common signal comparator, thereby preventing the offset of the detection comparator and reducing a chip size of the column driver in contrary to the prior art. Moreover, an inter-channel offset voltage is detected in a digital circuit mode, thereby compensating for process variations in a semiconductor chip manufacturing process in circuit terms.

摘要:
A phase lock loop (PLL) and methods for using same is provided that includes a multiple-feedback CMOS voltage control oscillator (VCO) and multi-phase sampling fractional-N prescaler. The PLL provides increased performance characteristics for a single chip CMOS radio frequency (RF) communications system. The multiple feedback CMOS VCO maintains an amplitude of a VCO signal while reducing a rise/fall time of the VCO signal. The multiple feedback CMOS VCO further reduces supply noise effects. The multi-phase sampling fractional-N prescaler provides sufficient bandwidth for a CMOS VCO while maintaining spectral purity and reducing fractional-spur. The multi-phase sampling fractional-N prescaler can include a divider, a sampler circuit, a selector circuit and a modular counter.

A tuning circuit for an RF communications system and method includes a master block that outputs a control signal to a slave block. The master block can include a first filter having a high pass filter and a low pass filter that each receive the control signal, a first rectifier coupled to the high pass filter, a second rectifier coupled to the low pass filter, and a converter coupled to the first and second rectifiers that outputs the control signal. The first filter is preferably a gm-C poly-phase filter. Output signals of the gm-C poly-phase filter include high and low pass filtering signals resulting from similarly configured circuits so that the output signals have the same electrical characteristics, which results in an increased accuracy, for example, in a cut-off frequency.
