摘要:
A common Delay Locked Loop (DLL) circuit and/or voltage generator circuit is provided in, or associated with. a memory interface interposed between a memory controller and a plurality of memory components. Corresponding circuits in the memory components are disabled and/or bypassed, or the memory components are manufactured without the circuits. Both the DLL circuit and voltage generator draw current, which is multiplied by the number of memory components in a memory system. By operating a single DLL circuit and/or voltage generator in or associated with the memory interface, that generates a read clock signal and/or various voltage levels, respectively, for all memory components in the memory system, power consumption may be significantly reduced.

The present invention relates to computing circuits and method for running an MPEG-2 AAC or MPEG-4 AAC algorithm efficiently, which is used as an audio compression algorithm in multi-channel high-quality audio systems, on programmable processors. In accordance with the present invention, the IMDCT process which takes large part of the amount of the operations in implementation of an MPEG-2/4 AAC algorithm can be performed in efficient. In addition, while the architecture of the existing digital signal processor is still used, the performance can be improved by means of the addition of the architecture of the address generator, Huffman decoder, and bit processing architecture. After all, to design and change the programmable processor is facilitated.

The present invention is generally related to integrated circuit devices, and more particularly, to methods and systems of a multi-chip package (MCP) containing a self-diagnostic scheme for detecting errors in the MCP. The MCP generally comprises a controller, at least one volatile memory chip having error detection logic, at least one non-volatile memory chip, and at least one fail signature register for storing fail signature data related to memory errors detected in the MCP. The controller can poll the fail signature register for fail signature data related to memory errors stored therein. Upon detection of fail signature data, the controller can store the fail signature data on a fail signature register located on a non-volatile memory.

Embodiments are provided in which a method and apparatus for accessing a special mode register of a memory device are described. A command to access the special mode register is detected. The command is executed by driving data from the special mode register onto a data bus. The command self-terminates by placing the data bus in a high impedance state. One or more unused address bits may specify one of a plurality of special mode registers to be accessed by the command. The command to access the special mode register may be incapable of changing one or more bits in a mode register.

A pulse width modulator for use in a digital amplifier, includes a pop noise reducer for reducing pop noise by controlling a width and a phase of a pulse of a PWM signal output from the pulse width modulator, wherein the pop noise reducer contains: a PWM pulse register for storing a width and a phase values of a pulse of the PWM signal; and a pulse generator for outputting the PWM signal according to the values stored in the PWM pulse register. The pulse width modulator reduces pop noise generated when power supply to a digital amplifier is started and interrupted.
