    Abstract: Circuits, methods, and apparatus that provide for protection of configuration bitstreams from theft. One exemplary embodiment receives a scrambled configuration bitstream with an integrated circuit. The scrambled configuration bitstream is descrambled using a plurality of multiplexers under control of a security key. A configuration bitstream is received in portions. One specific embodiment uses a key stored in memory to control a bank of multiplexers that descramble each of the received portions of the configuration bitstream. Other embodiments store longer keys, and use portions of the keys to descramble one or more portions of their respective configuration bitstreams. The outputs of the multiplexers are then stored in configuration memory cells.

    Abstract: Techniques and circuitry provide fast, accurate, proper, and reliable transfer of configuration data from an on-chip nonvolatile memory to the programmable logic core of a programmable logic integrated circuit. A first technique includes not allowing the programmable logic to be configured until the data held in the on-chip nonvolatile memory can be read correctly and reliably. A second technique includes verifying the configuration data is transferred from the nonvolatile memory to the programmable logic core correctly and without error during the transfer process. These two techniques may be combined or used individually during the configuration of an integrated circuit.

    Abstract: Integrated circuit devices are provided that include power detection circuits that indicate whether power supplies have reached functional voltage levels. The power detection circuits include latches coupled to power supplies that can detect whether all the power supplies have reached functional voltage levels, logic circuits to provide appropriate output signals, and well bias circuits that supply current to the power detection circuits. Well bias circuits provide current from first power supplies to reach functional voltage levels so that indication may be provided from the power detection circuit without requiring functional voltage levels of all power supplies. Outputs from power detection circuits can be combined with control signals, for various applications. Applications include holding an integrated circuit device in reset until power supplies have reached functional voltage levels.

    Abstract: A refueling boom operator's seat located within the lower rear portion of the aircraft fuselage, the seat positioning the operator in a moderately reclining sitting position facing rearwardly to view the operating area of the refueling boom. A leg well structure which extends rearwardly through and beyond a rear pressure bulkhead to accommodate the operator's legs, and a viewing window provided in an aperture defined by the rear pressure bulkhead is positioned above the operator's legs at approximately the position of the operator's knees. These components are so arranged relative to the main rear pressure bulkhead and other components of the fuselage that the operator has a direct unobstructed view of the boom's normal refueling envelope. A pair of mirrors at the upper and lower portion of the viewing window envelope provide a view of the area into which the boom is able to move above its normal refueling area.

    Abstract: Integrated circuits with memory cells are provided. A memory cell may have four inverter-like circuits connected in a ring configuration and four corresponding storage nodes. The four inverter-like circuits may form a storage portion of the memory cell. Some of the inverter-like circuits may have tri-state transistors in pull-up and pull-down paths. The tri-state transistors may be controlled by address signals. Address and access transistors may be coupled between some of the storages nodes and a data line. The address and access transistors may be used to read and write into the memory cell. During write operations, the address signals may be asserted to turn off the tri-state transistors and eliminate contention current from the cell. During read and normal operations, the address signals may be deasserted to allow the inverter-like circuits to hold the current state of the cell while providing soft error upset immunity.
