Abstract:
Multi-voltage circuit design verification segregates design elements into iso-voltage-rail blocks. Information on cross-over connections between the iso-voltage-rail blocks is obtained. Voltage effects are simulated in the circuit design, and, based on the cross-over information, the simulation results are modified. This yields more accurate results of simulations for multi-voltage circuit designs.
Abstract:
Combined hardware and software processing is applied in an end node of the network which includes mapping/demapping and deskewing. Most of the LCAS procedure is implemented in software so that it can be modified easily. Some of the procedure is implemented in hardware to meet stringent timing requirements. In particular, the handshaking protocol is implemented in software and the procedure for actually changing of the link capacity in response to the handshaking is implemented in hardware. The hardware and software communicate via a shared memory which includes a receive packet FIFO, receive control and status registers, a transmit packet FIFO, transmit control and status registers, and a transmit time slot interchange table.
