    摘要: A buffer, logic circuit, and data processing system employing fast turn-off drive circuitry for reducing leakage. Leakage current in logic circuitry is managed by coupling and decoupling the voltage potentials applied to large, high-leakage devices. Circuitry includes a low leakage logic path for holding logic states of an output after turning off high-leakage devices. A fast turn-off logic path in parallel with the low leakage logic path is used to assert each logic state in the forward direction from input to output. The large output device in each fast turn-off path is relieved of leakage stress by asserting logic states at driver inputs that cause the driver to turn OFF after the output logic state has been asserted.

    摘要: A dynamic logic circuit incorporating reduced leakage state-retaining devices reduces power consumption of processors and other systems incorporating dynamic circuits. A keeper circuit provides a low leakage retention of the state of the output stage of the dynamic circuit so that an output circuit foot device can be disabled except when required for a transition in the output of the dynamic circuit. The keeper circuit includes a transistor having a smaller area than a corresponding transistor in the output circuit, thus reducing leakage through the gate of the output circuit when the keeper circuit is holding the output and the output circuit foot device is disabled. A self-clocked control of the output circuit foot device can be provided via a delayed version of the dynamic logic gate output, or may be provided by an external control circuit that generates a delayed version of the precharge clock or a multi-cycle signal.

    摘要: A dynamic logic circuit apparatus and method for reducing leakage power consumption via separate clock and output stage control reduces power consumption of processors and other systems incorporating dynamic circuits. The power control signal may be a delayed version of the logic clock and turns on the output inverter foot device after the dynamic node has had sufficient time to evaluate, providing a fast evaluate time and reducing leakage through the inverter input when the foot device is off. Alternatively, a coarsely timed static power control signal may be used to control the inverter foot devices. The drains of the inverter foot devices can be commonly connected across multiple circuits, reducing the foot device total area.

    摘要: A zero/one anticipator having an integrated sign selector is disclosed. A leading zeros string and a leading ones string are generated by examining carry propagates, generates, and kills of two adjacent bits of two input operands to an adder within a floating-point processor. The leading zeros string is for a positive sum, and the leading ones string is for a negative sum. A normalization shift amount is then determined from the leading zeros string and the leading ones string. A sign of a sum of the two input operands is then determined separately but concurrently with the normalization shift amount determination process. The sign is then utilized to select either the positive sum or the negative sum for a proper normalization shift amount.

    摘要: A high-speed carry-lookahead binary adder is disclosed. The binary adder includes multiple rows of carry-lookahead circuits, a half-sum module, and a sum/carry module. A first carry-lookahead circuit row includes multiple eight-bit group generate circuits and multiple eight-bit group propagate circuits. Each of the eight-bit group generate circuits produces a generate signal for a corresponding bit location. Each of the eight-bit group propagate circuits produces a propagate signal for a corresponding bit location. The half-sum module is utilized to generate a half-sum signal. By utilizing the half-sum signal, the generate signals, and the propagate signals, the sum/carry module generates sum signals and a carry signal.
