摘要: A compensation circuit and a method for compensating for process, voltage and temperature (PVT) variations in an integrated circuit (IC). The IC includes several functional modules, each of which includes a set of functional units, and generates an output signal in response to an input signal. The compensation circuit includes a code generator and a logic module. The code generator generates a digital code for each functional unit. The digital codes are based on phase differences between the input signal and the output signal. The logic module generates calibration codes based on the digital codes. The calibration codes compensate for the PVT variations in the corresponding functional units.

摘要: A compensation circuit and a method that compensates for process, voltage and temperature (PVT) variations in an integrated circuit that includes functional modules. The compensation circuit includes a signal generator, a first code generator, a second code generator, and a mapping module. The signal generator generates a first signal and a second signal depending on aligned process corner, voltage and temperature variations and skewed process corner variations respectively. The first code generator receives the first signal, and generates a first calibration code. The second code generator receives the second signal, and generates a second calibration code. The mapping module provides the first and second calibration codes for compensating for the aligned process corner, voltage and temperature variations and the skewed process corner variations associated with the functional modules respectively.

摘要: A level shifter that shifts a low supply voltage input signal to a higher supply voltage output signal includes a first unit and a second unit. The first unit is connected to a high power supply voltage source and receives the input signal. The first unit acts as a startup circuit such that when the level shifter is switched on, the first unit discharges an output node if the input signal is a logic low, and when the input signal is a logic high, the first unit charges a control node to the voltage of the input signal. The second unit is connected to the first unit and the high power supply voltage source, and also receives the input signal. The second unit shifts the input signal to the higher supply voltage output signal. The level shifter operates only at the high power supply voltage.

摘要: A band-gap reference circuit for generation of voltages and currents independent of process, voltage, and temperature includes three inversely proportional to absolute temperature (IPTAT) current generators. The IPTAT current generators generate three currents that are added to generate a current independent of the absolute temperature. The generated current is passed through a switched capacitor resistor to generate the band-gap reference voltage across the switched capacitor resistor.

摘要: A bi-directional level shifter for shifting a digital signal from a low power supply voltage level to a high power supply voltage level and vice versa includes first and second I/O terminals, a first circuit operating at a low power supply voltage, and a second circuit operating at a high power supply voltage. The first circuit and the second circuit are connected to both of the I/O terminals. When a low voltage digital signal is applied at the first I/O terminal, a high voltage digital signal is generated at the second I/O terminal. Similarly, if a high voltage digital signal is applied at the second I/O terminal, a low voltage digital signal is generated at the first I/O terminal.

摘要: A digital clock frequency doubler for increasing an input frequency of an input clock signal includes an input block, and a generator block. The input block receives the input clock signal, and generates a pulse signal having an ON period equal to the input clock signal period. The generator block is coupled to the input block. The generator block receives the pulse signal and divides a period of the pulse signal by a period of a high frequency digital signal and then generates an output clock signal with an output frequency that is about two times the input frequency.

摘要: A circuit for converting an input signal at a first voltage level to an output signal at a second voltage level uses only thin oxide transistors. The circuit includes a first unit operating at a first power supply voltage and receiving the input signal, a second unit operating at a second power supply voltage, and a third unit coupling the first unit to the second unit. The third unit enables generation of the output signal. Use of an extra fabrication mask for thick oxide transistors is avoided by using only thin oxide transistors.
