    摘要: Approaches for a packet format for error reporting in a content addressable memory (CAM) device are disclosed. The CAM device may comprise a CAM array that includes a plurality of rows, each row including a plurality of CAM cells coupled to a match line, and an error notification circuit capable of forming a packet that indicates whether the CAM device is experiencing an error condition. If an error condition was experienced by the CAM device, the response packet may also indicate the type(s) of error that was encountered. Advantageously, information about any error condition experienced by the CAM device may be quickly ascertained by a host device in which the CAM device is incorporated.

    摘要: Embodiments of circuits and methods are described for decreasing transmitter waveform dispersion penalty (TWDP) in a transmitter. A data stream is received for transmission across a channel and a main data signal is generated from the data stream. At least two cursor signals are generated where each of the at least two cursor signals are shifted at least a portion of a clock period from the main data signal. The at least two cursor signals are subtracted from the main data signal to generate an output data signal with improved TWDP. Other embodiments include generating a main data signal, a pre-cursor signal shifted on previous clock cycle relative to the main data signal, and a post-cursor signal Shifted one subsequent clock cycle relative to the main data signal. The pre and post cursor signals are subtracted from the main data signal to generate an output data signal.

For some embodiments, the search pipeline includes a DFA engine, an NFA engine, and a token stitcher that combines partial match results generated by the DFA and NFA engines in a manner that prevents either engine from becoming a bottleneck. In addition, the token stitcher can be configured to implement unbounded sub-expressions without utilizing resources of the DFA or NFA engines.

    摘要: A frequency synthesis circuit includes a phase locked loop and an interpolator circuit. The phase locked loop circuit receives a reference clock and a feedback clock and generates an output clock with a frequency based on the reference clock and the feedback clock. An interpolator circuit is coupled in the feedback path of the phase locked loop circuit. An interpolator control circuit generates an interpolator control word that specifies a variable time delay for the interpolator circuit. The interpolator circuit receives the output clock, and generates the feedback clock by introducing a variable time delay in the output clock in accordance with the interpolator control word. The time variable delay varies the frequency of the output circuit. Embodiments for frequency synthesis circuits that include a spread spectrum frequency clock generator, frequency modulators, and a fixed frequency clock generator circuit are disclosed.
