    摘要: An integrated circuit includes circuitry to test input/output (I/O) devices. Test data is provided to a loopback circuit that drives data through the output buffer to the pad, and back onto the integrated circuit through the input buffer. Separate clock signals, with varying phase, are generated for input synchronous elements and output synchronous elements. The phase, and the relative time delay between the separate clocks, changes as an external clock is varied. The external clock is varied to verify the performance parameters of the I/O devices. Each I/O device includes a shift register that can be coupled to the other buffers in a chain, or can be configured to be in a loop.

    摘要: A method and an apparatus for generating an output voltage for an integrated circuit having multiple power supplies. A comparator circuit is coupled to receive power supply lines from the power bus of an integrated circuit. The power supply lines received from the power bus have different voltages which may vary depending on the particular application. The comparator compares the voltage potentials present on the power supply lines and determines which power supply line carries a voltage having the highest potential. The comparator then generates a corresponding select signal wherein the value of the select signal indicates which particular power supply line has the highest voltage potential. A multiplexor is coupled to receive the select signal as well as the power supply lines from the power bus. Based on the value of the select signal, the multiplexor generates the output voltage in response to the select signal wherein the output voltage is substantially equal to the voltage potential of the power supply line having the highest voltage potential.

    摘要: In a high-speed binary multiplier circuit, the multiplicand is segmented into a series of 8-bit slices and the multiplier is modified-Booth recoded into 3-bit groups. The corresponding partial product terms are reduced in a regular array of small carry-save adder cells. Iterative use of the CSA array provides the Wallace tree function in one-seventh the chip area or number of adders of a conventional implementation. The multiplier is pipelined internally, driven by a fast, two-phase internal clock that is transparent to the user. The internal clock stops and restarts upon loading new operand and instruction data to synchronize the internal clock to the system clock. Other aspects of the invention include high-speed absolute value subtract circuitry for exponent calculations and normalizing floating point results.
