摘要:
Multimedia information (e.g. graphics, video, sound, control information) passes through a system bus from a CPU main memory to a display memory in accordance with CPU commands. The information may be packetized with associated packet types identifying the different media. A media stream controller processes the information and passes the processed information to the display memory. Controllers in the media stream controller individually pass multimedia information to the display memory. A PACDAC controller in the media stream controller causes media (e.g. graphics, video) in the display memory to be transferred to a PACDAC for display. The format, sequence, and rate of this transfer may be flexibly controlled by software on a frame by frame basis. Arbitration logic establishes priorities for the different controllers in the media stream controller so they may share a single bus for accessing the display memory. A single interrupt controller coordinates interrupts (e.g. at a single level) to provide priorities based upon the type of interrupt cause or media. Each interrupt cause activates only the appropriate callback functions. Two different virtual machine sessions (e.g. Windows, DOS) share an interrupt line to process interrupt requests form one (1) session (e.g. Windows) before processing interrupt requests from the other.

A device for transport stream processing is provided. The device includes a plurality of data inputs and a transport stream re-multiplexer for receiving a plurality of data streams from the plurality of data stream inputs and multiplexing the data streams into a transport stream. A transport stream processor receives the transport stream, de-multiplexes the transport stream to process one or more of the data streams, and provides the processed data stream to the transport stream re-multiplexer as one of the plurality of data streams.

A Video-RAM semiconductor memory device comprised of a RAM army having an address input for inputting row, column, and target addresses, and a serial access array having a serial output port. The Video-RAM has address/control logic which detects a stimulus such as a RAS clock from an external controller indicating a coarse timing location for a data transfer between the RAM array and the serial access array. The control logic then provides control signals, that are internally synchronized with a serial clock, and that occur during a period that a tap pointer is equal to a value one less than a programmable target value or an input target address. This causes a row in the RAM array corresponding to an input row address to be transferred between the RAM array and the serial access array.

In a memory addressable by row and by column and operable in page mode whereby multiple column cycles are performed within a single row cycle, an arrangement is provided for stepping the row address for selected column cycles whereby sustained page mode operation can be provided throughout memory address space. Preferably, stepping occurs in response to a row change signal supplied when a column address strobe becomes active and the direction of stepping is determined by a mode signal supplied when a row address strobe becomes active. Memory segmentation is employed to facilitate simultaneous activation and restoring of multiple rows.

A system for encrypting and decrypting data is provided. The system includes a client for receiving a data packet, setting a value of a crypto bit, and transmitting the data packet over a system bus. A crypto module receives the data packet from the system bus and performs a cryptology function on the data packet based on a first value of the crypto bit. A memory controller receives the data packet from the system bus and performs non-cryptology functions on the data packet based on a second value of the crypto bit.
摘要:
A digital arithmetic logic unit in which the carry chain is subdivided into a series of bit fields allowing independent and simultaneous data manipulation to be undertaken in each of the bit fields. Division of the carry chain is achieved via a carry chain selector consisting of a series of multiplexers, one being placed between each pair of adjacent stages of the carry chain. Each multiplexer has two data inputs, one of which forms the carry to the next stage of the carry chain. The carry selected either continues the computation or defines the end of one bit field and provides the least significant carry-in bit to the next bit field. This selection of the carry by the multiplexer is under control of a programmable register, thus allowing variable division of the carry chain.
