    摘要: A system includes first and second synchronous circuits and an asynchronous circuit configured to receive input from the first synchronous circuit and to send output to the second synchronous circuit. First and second variable clock generators are configured to drive the first and second synchronous circuit. A delay circuit is configured in a pathway from the first variable clock generator to the second variable clock generator, the delay circuit being configured to add a delay to the pathway based upon a processing time or an expected processing time of the asynchronous circuit. The delay circuit is further configured to induce additional uneven delay into the pathway. The additional uneven delay disperses local current absorption, thereby decreasing overall electro magnetic emissions of the system.

    摘要: A speed performance measurement circuit that may perform speed performance measurement is provided between a first logic circuit and a second logic circuit. The speed performance measurement circuit includes a first flip flop that stores first data, a first delay circuit that delays the first data and generates second data, and a second flip flop that stores the second data. Furthermore, the speed performance measurement circuit includes a first comparator circuit that compares output of the first flip flop to output of the second flip flop, and a third flip flop that stores output data from the first comparator circuit in accordance with timing of the first clock signal. Data in a normal path is compared to data in a path delayed by a certain time to measure speed, and power voltage of a circuit is determined based on such comparison. Thus, change in speed with respect to power voltage in a critical path can be measured.

    摘要: Semiconductor devices, a system including said semiconductor devices and methods thereof are provided. An example semiconductor device may receive data scheduled for transmission, scramble an order of bits within the received data, the scrambled order arranged in accordance with a given pseudo-random sequence. The received data may be balanced such that a difference between a first number of the bits within the received data equal to a first logic level and a second number of bits within the received data equal to a second logic level is below a threshold. The balanced and scrambled received data may then be transmitted. The example semiconductor device may perform the scrambling and balancing operations in any order. Likewise, on a receiving end, another semiconductor device may decode the original data by unscrambling and unbalancing the transmitted data. The unscrambling and unbalancing operations may be performed in an order based upon the order in which the transmitted data is scrambled and balanced.
