Abstract: A parameterized superconducting circuit may include a set of sub-blocks which include superconducting circuitry. Different sub-blocks in the set of sub-blocks may be clocked using clock signals having different phases. Along a first direction, relative locations of the set of sub-blocks may be fixed. Along a second direction, relative locations of the set of sub-blocks may be determined based on a set of parameter values.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide level-shifters and their use with switching converters. A level-shifter receives a binary signal on an input node and generates an output signal also representing the same logic level of the binary signal. The output signal represents logic levels in a first voltage range defined with respect to a first constant reference potential in a sequence of first phases of a clock signal and in a second voltage range defined with respect to a second constant reference potential in a sequence of second phases of the clock signal. The first constant reference potential is lower than the second constant reference potential. A controller block contained in the level-shifter receives the binary signal and transfers a changed logic level of the binary signal only in the first phase, but not in the second phase of the clock signal.

Abstract: A power converter that properly copes with the wiring defects on a feedback path is shown. According to a control signal, a power driver couples an input voltage to an energy storage element to provide an output voltage that is down-converted from the input voltage. The output voltage is further converted into a feedback voltage by a feedback circuit, and is entered to an error amplifier with a reference voltage for generation of an amplified error. A control signal generator generates the control signal of the power driver according to the amplified error. The power converter specifically has a comparator, which is enabled in a soft-start stage till the output voltage reaches a stable status. The comparator compares the amplified error with a critical value. When the amplified error exceeds the critical value, the input voltage is disconnected from the energy storage element.

Abstract: A power-on reset system includes a reset signal generator, a power-on reset module and a D flip-flop. The reset signal generator generates a reset enable signal when powered on, and the reset enable signal is input to the power-on reset module and the D flip-flop. An output end of the power-on reset module is connected with a clock end of the D flip-flop, an output end of the D flip-flop is connected with a control end of the power-on reset module, and an output signal of the power-on reset module controls the output reset signal of the D flip-flop. When a voltage of the enable end of the power-on reset module is a high level, the power-on reset module is turned off. In such a way, the entire power-on reset system generates no power consumption, thereby improving the working performance of the entire system chip.

Abstract: A voltage glitch detector includes a ring oscillator, a plurality of counters, a combined result circuit, and a result evaluation circuit. The ring oscillator includes a plurality of series-connected stages. An output of a last stage of the ring oscillator is coupled to an input of a first stage of the ring oscillator. Each counter of the plurality of counters has an input coupled to a node located between two stages of the plurality of series-connected stages. The combined result circuit is coupled to each of the plurality of counters. The combined result circuit combines the count values received from each counter of the plurality of counters to provide a combined result. The result evaluation circuit is coupled to compare the combined result with a reference value to determine when a voltage glitch is detected.
