    Abstract: A linear regulator with an N-type pass transistor includes an over-current protection circuit. A current sink is used as an indicator for an over-current condition and is coupled to the output of the linear regulator. The indicator is coupled to a feedback logic circuit that controls the current through the output load. The over-current protection circuit extensively uses N-type devices for various components including the output driver stage in the circuit. This results in reduced area for the over-current protection circuit.

    Abstract: To provide a memory efficient method and system for statistical data accumulation and processing, data is divided into multiple data zones and divided into subgroups of memories. A separate memory bin is assigned for each of the subgroups, and this memory bin is shared between various two data zones in each subgroup for processing and accumulation. In this scheme, the histogram data in each location of the separate memory bin for the previously accumulated data zones is processed before updating the stored value for the data zone requiring data accumulation.

    Abstract: A self timing write architecture for semiconductor memory and a method for providing the same are provided. The core region of the semiconductor memory comprises of a normal memory cell array and a dummy column. The dummy column comprises of two blocks—block A and block B. Block A is composed of a cluster of N dummy cells in which data is written during write operation. The remaining cells in the dummy column together form block B which is meant for providing load for the dummy bit line. During a write operation, a dummy word line is generated to enable dummy memory cells of block A. The dummy bit line is then made to travel half the number of rows in the normal memory array and then made to return back. A dummy data is then written in all the dummy cells in block A. Simultaneously, a normal memory cell is also accessed and actual data is written into it. As soon as the writing operation is complete, a W-reset signal is generated to indicate successful completion of write operation. Recovery operation for the next cycle is then started.
