    摘要: A voltage scaling circuit for protecting an input node to a protected circuit uses a voltage shifting circuit that includes two nmos transistors. One nmos transistor is configured as a bi-directional voltage follower and the other nmos transistor is configured as uni-directional voltage follower to facilitate input high level shifting between an input signal node, such as a pin of an integrated circuit and an input node to the protected circuit.

    摘要: A signal phase shifting circuit shifts the phase of an input signal, such as a STROBE signal, based on a reference signal, such as a CLOCK signal, to facilitate, for example, receiving of double data rate data. The signal phase shifting circuit includes a reference signal period dividing circuit having a feedback delay matching array operatively coupled to one of a plurality of voltage control delay lines. This signal phase shifting circuit also includes a variable delay circuit that provides a phase shifted output signal, such as a phase shifted STROBE signal, that includes a delay stage in a phase shifted output signal drive buffer coupled to the delay stage, such as a voltage control delay line. The feedback delay matching array includes a plurality of serially coupled buffer stages operatively coupled to compensate for delay variations associated with the phase shifted output signal drive buffer in the variable delay circuit.

    摘要: An input/output circuit in a receiving mode typically has disabled output buffers as well as other electrical components that provide significant receiver input capacities at high operating frequencies. A detection circuit detects the charging/discharging of the parasitic capacitance and operates a regulating circuit to compensate for the charging/discharging of the parasitic capacitance during rising/falling edges of an input signal, thereby correcting for impedance mismatch and reflection glitches.

    摘要: A specific embodiment is disclosed for a method and apparatus for processing data access requests from a requesting device, such as a graphics processor device. Data access commands are provided at a first rate, for example 200M commands per second, to a memory bridge. In response to receiving the access requests the memory bridge will provide its own access requests to a plurality of memories at approximately the first rate. In response to the memory bridge requests, the plurality of memories will access a plurality of data at a second data rate. When the data access between the memory bridge and the memories is a read request, data is returned to the requesting device at a third data rate which is greater than the first data rate by approximately four-times or more. Noise and power reduction techniques can be used on the data bus between the accessing device and the data bridge.
