摘要:
A method of processing CMOS circuits provides up to three types of transistors (standard NFETs, PFETs and high current NFETs) without additional masking steps by the simultaneous implantation of the standard PFET and the high current NFET low doped source and drain implants and a separate implantation of the standard NFET.

Technologies for flexible I/O protocol acceleration include a computing device having a root complex, a smart endpoint coupled to the root complex, and an offload complex coupled to the smart endpoint. The smart endpoint receives an I/O transaction that originates from the root complex and parses the I/O transaction based on an I/O protocol and identifies an I/O command. The smart endpoint may parse the I/O transaction based on endpoint firmware that may be programmed by the computing device. The smart endpoint accelerates the I/O command and provides a smart context to the offload complex. The smart endpoint may copy the I/O command to memory of the smart endpoint or the offload complex. The smart endpoint may identify protocol data based on the I/O command and copy the protocol data to the memory of the smart endpoint or the offload complex. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Technologies for flexible I/O endpoint acceleration include a computing device having a root complex, a soft endpoint coupled to the root complex, and an offload complex coupled to the soft endpoint. The soft endpoint establishes an emulated endpoint hierarchy based on endpoint firmware. The computing device may program the endpoint firmware. The soft endpoint receives an I/O transaction that originates from the root complex and determines whether to process the I/O transaction. The soft endpoint may process the I/O transaction or forward the I/O transaction to the offload complex. The soft endpoint may encapsulate the I/O transaction with metadata and forward the encapsulated transaction to the offload complex. The soft endpoint may store responses from the offload complex in a history buffer and retrieve the responses in response to retried I/O transactions. The I/O transaction may be a PCI Express transaction layer packet. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Circuitry for reading from and writing to memory cells of a group of memory cells. The circuitry comprises read circuitry and write circuitry each connectable to bit lines associated with respective ones of the memory cells. The read circuitry is arranged to read from the cells and the write circuitry is arranged to write to the cells. Wherein the read circuitry and write circuitry are configured so that more cells in the group can be simultaneously written to during a write operation than can be simultaneously read from during a read operation.

A driver circuit for limiting electrical noise on a quiescent signal is provided which includes a Transition High Driver circuit, a Transition Low Driver circuit, a Quiescent High Driver circuit, and a Quiescent Low Driver circuit. The driver circuit comprises means for driving an electrical signal with a presumed noisy Transition Power Supply network while it is transitioning from a low voltage level to a high voltage level or vice versa. The signal is driven by the Transition Power Supply network until the electrical signal reaches its quiescent voltage level. At this time, the signal is no longer driven by the Transition Power Supply network but rather by a presumed clean Quiescent Power Supply network. In this manner, noise from transitioning signals is prevented from coupling onto quiescent signals.

Methods and apparatus for performing error correction code (ECC) coding techniques for high-speed implementations. The ECC code word is structured to facilitate a very fast single-error-detect (SED) that allows state machines to be stopped within a single cycle when an error is detected and enables a corresponding single-error-correct (SEC) operation to be performed over multiple cycles while the state machines are in a suspended mode.
