    摘要: An automatic power control system provides a control signal that regulates the output power of at least one laser diode. Coarse adjustment of the control signal is provided by a first means, preferably a digital variable resistor, while fine adjustment and compensation is provided by a second means, preferably by a digital-to-analog converter that receives an input signal proportional to a sensed control system parameter. The control system includes an operational amplifier having a first input coupled to sense output power, and a second input coupled to a DAC to provide finer resolution control. Memory can store system parameter or system parameter variations that can be coupled to the DAC and/or variable resistor to enhance system stability over ambient variations.

    摘要: A device for performing numerical value conversion of a digital input value in a first unit to a second unit being a natural unit includes a look-up table storing an array of coefficients for performing the numerical value conversion. The look-up table is indexed using a first parameter to provide a selected coefficient. An arithmetic logic unit (ALU) is coupled to receive the digital input value and the selected coefficient and perform the numerical value conversion based on a first equation using the selected coefficient to compute a digital output value in the second unit. The first unit can be an arbitrary ADC unit and the second unit is a natural unit of physical measurement, such as volts, amperes, degree Centigrade. Furthermore, the device can be used to perform numerical value conversion from the arbitrary unit to the natural unit having a linear or a non-linear relationship.

    摘要: A circuit coupled to an input-output bond pad (I/O pad) in an integrated circuit including an input buffer, an output buffer and a pad management circuit. The pad management circuit receives a first data signal, a first output enable signal, and a configuration signal indicative of the connection state of the I/O pad, and generates a second data signal and a second output enable signal. When the configuration signal indicates the I/O pad is to be connected to a package pin, the pad management circuit couples the first data signal as the second data signal and couples the first output enable signal as the second output enable signal. When the configuration signal indicates the I/O pad is to be left unconnected, the pad management circuit asserts the second output enable signal and generates the second data signal having a predetermined value.

    摘要: A method and structure are provided that reduce the overall time of the read-erase-modify-write cycle time of non-volatile memories. Specifically, the erase operation of the read-erase-write cycle is avoided in certain circumstances. In one embodiment, the erase operation is skipped where a predetermined pattern is found in at least a portion the block. In another embodiment, the erase operation is skipped where a status of the block indicates that the erase operation can be skipped.

    摘要: A system and method for completing a read transaction between an initiator device and a host memory device in a computer system, in which the present invention optimizes the retry behavior of the initiator device and a target device. The system of the present invention includes a bus bridge device, wherein the bus bridge device includes a target device coupled to the initiator device via a bus; the host memory device coupled to the bus bridge device; and a timer mechanism coupled to the target device. The initiator device is adapted to initiate a present read transaction via the target device, such that an access is asserted between the initiator device and the target device. The timer mechanism is adapted to measure target latency for one or more read transactions preceding the present read transaction, and the timer mechanism is further adapted to use the target latency to calculate a dynamic target latency period. The target device is adapted to maintain the access to the initiator device during the dynamic target latency period. Thus, in accordance with the present invention, the target latency is dynamically measured and used to optimize the retry behavior of the initiator and target devices.

    摘要: A virtual contiguous system for combining multiple and arbitrarily-sized and aligned digital data packets from a PCI bus to a DSP circuit is disclosed. Information from the PCI bus is supplied directly to a plurality of FIFO RAM memory units. Each packet of digital data includes data packet descriptors identifying at least the start address for each data packet and the size of each data packet. The system utilizes this information to operate a read pointer and a write pointer to remove data from the FIFO RAM memory units on a sequential bit-by-bit basis and to supply said data packets to said RAM memory units by means of a write pointer operated by said control circuit. The information transfer is managed on the read side of the FIFO RAM memory units with minimal processing on the write side.
