    摘要: Programmable on-chip identification circuitry and associated method are disclosed that provide integrated circuits with the ability to select and report from multiple different vendor and system identification configurations. The integrated circuit device includes programmable circuitry that utilizes vendor identification, system identification, configuration or other device information provided or selected at least in part based upon selection information from a source external to the integrated circuit. The selection information may be provided through one or more externally generated digital and/or analog control signals that are then processed within the integrated circuit device to select, access and utilize desired identification information stored in an on-chip database. For example, one or more analog control signals can be generated using resistor circuits for which specific selectable resistor configurations map to particular information stored in a look-up table or other database structure within the integrated circuit. The analog control signals are converted to digital values within the integrated circuit, and these digital values are used to select device information from the on-chip database. Furthermore, the selected device information can be stored in on-chip device information registers. And the digital values themselves can be stored and used as identification, configuration or other device information.

The programmable circuitry allows for vendor ID information for multiple device configurations and/or multiple vendor supplied devices to be accurately reported to external devices. In particular, direct-access-arrangement (DAA) circuitry is disclosed having such on-chip programmable circuitry that may be loaded with vendor identification information at least in part from an external source. The external source may in turn be programmable circuitry, such as a EEPROM. This disclosed invention allows a single hardware DAA solution to be utilized by different software vendors, who each add their own respective software functionality, and to be utilized by a single software vendor, who desires to bundle different software functionality or revisions with the single hardware DAA solution.

    摘要: Caller ID (CID) data-reporting circuitry operates in conjunction with direct-access arrangement (DAA) circuitry or other circuitry that operates within the operational requirements of the Audio Codec '97 (AC-97) Component Specification. The CID data-reporting circuitry provides for the transfer of a data word from the DAA circuitry to a host computer or controller that operates within the AC-97 operational specifications. The CID data-reporting circuitry transfers the CID data in an asynchronous manner, i.e., at non-pre-determined intervals. Software running on the host computer or the controller may thus examine each data word or group of data words and take appropriate action, for example, process the data further or terminate the data transfer. A command interpreter begins the data transfer by initializing an address pointer used to facilitate retrieving the data from a CID random-access memory (RAM) and to make the data available to the host computer or controller through an output register.

    摘要: In a direct sequence spread spectrum communication receiver, a system and method for recovering the timing of a pseudo-random noise (PN) sequence used for despreading the received signals. In one embodiment of the method, the receiver waits for detection of a SYNC field to confirm at least a coarse synchronization or the receiver's local PN sequence with the received PN sequence (in the received signal). The receiver then performs a fast tracking to finely synchronize the receiver's PN sequence with the received PN sequence, preferably for a fixed duration of time. One embodiment of a system for performing the synchronization with the fast tracking includes an input for receiving a received spread-spectrum data stream, an ML detection logic, a receiver PN clock, a despreading mixer that generates a narrowband signal from the spread-spectrum data stream, a testing logic that generates a PASS output if it identifies a SYNC field in the narrowband signal, and a fast-tracking logic. The fast-tracking logic temporarily advances and temporarily delays the receiver PN clock by a small shift and measures the resulting correlations between the receiver's PN sequence and the received PN sequence. If the advanced correlation is greater or less than the delayed correlation, then the fast-tracking logic accordingly makes a small adjustment to advance or delay the receiver PN clock. This temporary advancing, temporary delaying, and adjusting of the receiver PN clock is preferably repeated a fixed number of times.

    摘要: In a digital communications receiver, a system and method for evaluating the quality of received symbols and for initializing and adjusting a symbol clock. The invention presents a symbol quality detector that evaluates symbols which have been received by the receiver and detected in a matched filter. The received symbols are members of a constellation with elements that have purely I or purely Q components. The symbol-quality detector comprises inputs that receive the I and Q components of the symbols, and a logic block that generates the symbol-quality signal by constructing the quantity ||I|−|Q||. This quantity is a maximum when the detected symbols are aligned with the expected points in the symbol constellation, and decreases if the detected symbols are rotated away from these constellation points. The present invention further comprises a digital communications receiver that uses a symbol-quality detector to evaluate its symbol clock. Still further, the present invention contemplates a method for configuring the receiver with an IF delay value that indicates the timing of symbol transitions in a received signal processed by the receiver. In this embodiment of the invention, the receiver recovers a timing that has the same period as the symbol period, but which is out of phase with the received symbols. The method then determines an optimal delay value by which the symbol clock should be shifted from the recovered timing by using the symbol-quality signal to evaluate test delays and to successively refine them until the optimal delay value is found.
