    摘要: An amplifying circuit has an offset calibration mode and a normal mode. The amplifying circuit includes an amplifier having a non-inverting input and an inverting input for receiving, during the normal mode, a first input signal and a second input signal and an output for providing a high speed output signal, wherein the first input signal is a reference voltage or a high speed signal and the second input signal is a high speed signal. The amplifying circuit further includes a first transmission gate and a second transmission gate coupled in series between the non-inverting input and an inverting input that are enabled during the offset calibration mode. A benefit of this approach is that capacitance between the inverting and non-inverting inputs is reduced by the first and second transmission gates being in series. There is further benefit in reducing this capacitance by having each transmission gate receive an enable signal from a different source.

    摘要: Level shifting circuit (36) utilizes self-timed pulse generators (40, 46) to provide a series of pulses in response to an input signal. The pulses are used to create a pulse of specified duration at a predetermined voltage level at first and second nodes (44, 45). In response to the predetermined pulses, shifted inverters (50, 52) provide a voltage output of either V.sub.DDH or V.sub.DDL, one of two different voltages which exist in a system utilizing the level shifter (36). In one form, level shifting circuit (36) may be used in an output buffer (60) to interface an integrated circuit designed to operate at a low supply voltage with additional integrated circuits operating at a higher supply voltage which could damage the gate oxide of the transistors in the low supply voltage integrated circuit.

    摘要: An output buffer translates digital input signals which toggle between ground and V.sub.DDL to signals which toggle between ground and V.sub.DDH. The technology dielectric breakdown voltage limit is less than the magnitude of V.sub.DDH, such that use of a traditional output stage would subject transistors' dielectrics to voltages which exceed their dielectric breakdown limit, and would thus be damaged. Predrive circuits (40, 50) control output stage (70) transistors' (72, 78) gates, and voltage dropping circuits control output stage (70) transistors (74, 76). These control signals are generated specifically to maximize output stage transistor drive strengths, thereby minimizing output stage size. Output buffer functions when V.sub.DDL =V.sub.DDH, and its performance is V.sub.DDL independent. Temperature compensation is incorporated into the output buffer by deliberately offsetting temperature effects on output stage transistor drive strengths. Desired performance and temperature compensation are accomplished without subjecting any dielectrics to voltages which exceed the technology dielectric breakdown limit.

    摘要: Output buffer (100) translates input signals from one voltage range to a second voltage range. The second voltage range may be identical to the first range or may be greater. The particular range is programmable by one of several ways. This feature makes output buffer especially suitable for use in devices which must be compatible with two voltage ranges. Output buffer uses a bias generator (110) to limit the voltage across the gate oxide of its various transistors to a level which is consistent with the first voltage range.

    摘要: Components of a memory controller are calibrated in a select sequence to compensate for variances in skew and signal level variations. The offset bias of the receiver of the I/O cell and the termination resistance of the I/O cell are calibrated. The duty cycles of the transmit path and receive path associated with the I/O cell can be calibrated using the calibrated receiver. In one aspect, the driver of the I/O cell can be calibrated prior to calibrating the receiver. Performing the calibration processes of the memory controller in one of the particular sequences described herein improves the timing budgets for the signaling conducted by the memory controller.

    摘要: Disclosed are biocompatible implants that combine a scaffold material for supporting long term repair of a soft tissue with an elongated member such as a suture for aiding in placement of the scaffold during a surgical procedure as well as for immediate mechanical reinforcement of a repair site. The components of an implant are combined such that a longitudinal load placed upon a composite structure can be borne primarily by the elongated member and the scaffold material is isolated from the longitudinal load. Thus, the scaffold material of a composite can be protected from damage due to applied loads and stresses during and following a surgical procedure.
