Disclosed herein is an interdigitation-type diffractive light modulator. In the interdigitation-type diffractive light modulator of the present invention, each of a pair of ribbons has a plurality of diffractive branches which are arranged in a comb shape, and the diffractive branches of the ribbons interdigitate with each other. Furthermore, the respective ribbons moves upwards and downwards or, alternatively, one ribbon moves upwards and downwards, so that the diffractive branches of the ribbons which interdigitate with each other form a stepped structure, thus diffracting incident light.

A spin transistor having wide ON/OFF operation margin and producing less noise is provided. The spin transistor includes a substrate having a channel, a source, a drain and a gate formed on the substrate. The source and the drain are formed to have magnetization directions perpendicular to the length direction of the channel. The ON/OFF operations of the spin transistor can be controlled by generating a spin-orbit coupling induced magnetic field to have a direction parallel or anti-parallel to the magnetization directions of the source and the drain.

Techniques are provided for calibrating on-chip termination impedances on integrated circuits. An on-chip termination (OCT) calibration circuit generates calibration codes that selectively control the conductive states of a set of transistors coupled in parallel. The OCT calibration circuit selects a calibration code that causes the impedance of the transistors to be near a matching impedance. The selected calibration code controls an on-chip termination impedance at a pin. According to some embodiments, the OCT calibration circuit compares a signal from the transistors to two or more reference signals to improve the tolerance range of the calibrated on-chip termination impedance. According to other embodiments, the OCT calibration circuit selects a calibration code based on a signal from the transistors after an extra transistor is turned on by a control signal. The control signal is not used to control the on-chip termination impedance.

The architecture includes pass gates connected in series between the logic blocks. One of the gates of the pass gates is supplied with a selectable gate voltage supply. The selectable gate voltage supply is selected from a plurality of voltages based on a configuration random access memory (CRAM) setting.

An on-chip termination (OCT) calibration circuit includes one or more transistors coupled between a first terminal and a supply voltage, one or more transistors coupled between the first terminal and a low voltage, and a feedback loop circuit. The feedback loop circuit compares a signal from the first terminal to first and second reference signals to generate a first calibration code that controls conductive states of the one or more transistors coupled between the first terminal and the supply voltage and a second calibration code that controls conductive states of the one or more transistors coupled between the first terminal and the low voltage. The OCT calibration circuit controls an on-chip termination impedance at a pin using the first calibration code and the second calibration code.
摘要:
Digital signal processing (“DSP”) circuit blocks are provided that can more easily work together to perform larger (e.g., more complex and/or more arithmetically precise) DSP operations if desired. These DSP blocks may also include redundancy circuitry that facilitates stitching together multiple such blocks despite an inability to use some block (e.g., because of a circuit defect). Systolic registers may be included at various points in the DSP blocks to facilitate use of the blocks to implement systolic form, finite-impulse-response (“FIR”), digital filters.
