    摘要: The present disclosure provides a hot-plugging control method, device, and retimer. The hot-plugging control method includes: receiving data from a pluggable device through a second end, sending the data to an RC through a first end; sending a detection signal to the second end to detect the connection status between the pluggable device and the second end; and stopping sending the data to the RC, and sending the first control signal to the RC, when it is detected that the pluggable device is hot-unplugged from the second end, so that the RC handles the abnormal state of the data not being sent according to the first control signal. The hot-plugging control method provided by the present disclosure does not require presence signals to implement hot-plugging of a pluggable device, and thus can avoid the problem that the device cannot implement hot-plugging without presence signals.

    摘要: The disclosure provides a glitch removal circuit with low latency. The glitch removal circuit includes a first signal edge detector, a second signal edge detector, a latch, and a control signal generator. The first signal edge detector is activated according to the first control signal to detect the rising edge of the input signal to generate the first detection result. The second signal edge detector is activated according to the second control signal to detect the falling edge of the input signal to generate the second detection result. The latch sets the generated output signal according to the first detection result, and clears the generated output signal according to the second detection result. The control signal generator shields the glitch on the input signal to generate a processed signal, and generates a first control signal and a second control signal according to the processed signal.

    摘要: The application relates to the field of integrated circuit design and discloses a digital phase interpolator, comprising: a first delay unit, a pre-interpolating unit, a second delay unit, and a phase interpolating unit; wherein each interpolation branch comprises a pre-interpolating unit and a re-interpolating unit. For two input signals with preset phase differences, the digital phase interpolator performs two interpolation processes, one at the pre-interpolating unit and the other at the phase interpolating unit. This distributed quadratic interpolation reduces the task of the phase interpolation unit, helps to reduce the number of stages of the phase interpolating unit, reduces the input load, reduces the overall power consumption and the overall area, ensures the rationality of its own power consumption, and improves the linearity of phase interpolation to some extent.

    摘要: The present application relates to a device for selecting top values from a set of raw values, comprising: an output queue, a loop queue, a top value storage module and a control module. The control module is configured to, at a higher priority, merge the intermediate sequence stored in the loop queue with the at most N top values stored in a storage area of the top value storage module, and sort the merged values to generate a merged sequence, until a predetermined number of storage areas in the top value storage module are traversed; wherein the control module is further configured to, when there is no intermediate sequence being stored in the loop queue, merge the output sequence with the at most N top values stored in a storage area of the top value storage module, and sort the merged values to generate a merged sequence; wherein the control module is further configured to provide a first subsequence in the merged sequence which is closer to a top most value of the merged sequence to the top value storage module to update the top value storage module, and provide a second subsequence in the merged sequence which is farther away from the top most value of the merged sequence to the loop queue to generate or update the intermediate sequence.
