摘要:
The present disclosure includes a multi-threaded processor that includes a first register file associated with a first thread and a second register file associated with a second thread. At least one hardware resource is shared by the first and second register files. In addition, the first thread may have a pipeline access position that is non-sequential to the second thread. A method of accessing a plurality of register files is also disclosed. The method includes reading data from a first register file while concurrently reading data from a second register file. The first register file is associated with a first instruction stream and the second register file is associated with a second instruction stream. The first instruction stream is sequential to the second instruction stream in an execution pipeline of a processor, and the first register file is in a non-adjacent location with respect to the second register file.

A logic device includes a data input, a scan test input, a clock demultiplexer, and a master latch. The clock demultiplexer is responsive to a clock input to selectively provide a first clock output and a second clock output. The master latch is coupled to the data input and to the scan test input and includes an output. The master latch is responsive to the first clock output of the clock demultiplexer and the second clock output of the clock demultiplexer to selectively couple the data input or the scan test input to the output.

A clock gating system and method is disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the system includes an input logic circuit having at least one input to receive at least one input signal and having an output at an internal enable node. A keeper circuit includes at least one switching element that is responsive to a gated clock signal and is coupled to the internal enable node to selectively hold a logical voltage level at the internal enable node. The system further includes a gating element responsive to an input clock signal and to the logical voltage level at the internal enable node to generate the gated clock signal.

In an embodiment, a method is disclosed that includes receiving a clock signal at a delay chain of a circuit device and determining a value of the clock signal at a selected point within the delay chain. The method also includes adjusting the selected point when the value does not indicate detection of an edge of the clock signal.

Techniques for processing transmissions in a communications (e.g., CDMA) system including the use of a digital signal processor. The digital signal processor includes a cache memory system and associates a plurality of cache memory match lines with addressable memory lines of an addressable memory. Each of the cache memory match lines associates with one of corresponding sets of the cache memory. The method and system maintain each of the cache memory match lines at a low voltage. Once the digital signal processor initiates a search of the cache memory for retrieving data from a selected one of the corresponding sets of the cache memory, a match line drive circuit drives one of the cache memory match lines from a low voltage to a high voltage. The selected one of the cache memory match lines corresponds to the selected one of the corresponding sets of the cache memory. The digital signal processor compares the selected one of the cache memory match lines to an associated one of the addressable memory lines. Following the comparison step, the process returns the one of the cache memory match lines to the low voltage.

A fishing device is disclosed including a fishing rod and a line guide connected to the fishing rod. A moveable or pivoting lever may be disposed adjacent to the line guide. A fishing line braking surface may disposed adjacent to the lever. The lever may be used to press the fishing line against the braking surface to slow or stop it from passing through the line guide. A finger control at the rod handle may be used to move the lever into a braking position.

A method is disclosed that includes propagating data via a first data path of a sequential circuit element in response to a clock signal received at a single clocked transistor of the sequential circuit element. The method also includes retaining information related to the data propagated via the first path at a retention circuit element of a second data path, where the first data path includes a first transistor that is responsive to an output of the single clocked transistor. The first transistor has a higher current flow capacity than a second transistor associated with the second data path.

A method for implanting a cardiac support device (CSD) on a patient's heart. An amount of contrast agent sufficient to cause structures on the heart to be visible upon fluoroscopic or other imaging is introduced into the pericardial space surrounding the heart. The heart and contrast agent are imaged to provide a visual indication of the location of the structures of the heart. The CSD is placed on the heart using the visual indications provided by the imaging.
