    摘要: A list sort static random access memory (LSSRAM) unit cell includes a static random access memory (SRAM) cell having a pair of cross-coupled elements to store data and a dynamic/static (D/S) mode selector to selectably switch the LSSRAM unit cell between a dynamic storage mode and a static storage mode. The LSSRAM unit cell further includes a swap selector to swap the stored data with data stored in an adjacent memory cell during the dynamic storage mode when the swap selector is activated, and a data comparator to compare the stored data in the SRAM cell with the data stored in the adjacent memory cell and to activate the swap selector according to a result of the comparison.

    摘要: A multi-plane circuit structure has at least a first circuit plane and a second circuit plane, and each circuit plane has a plurality of row wire segments, a plurality of column wire segments, and a plurality of crosspoint devices formed at intersections of the row wire segments and the column wire segments. The row and column wire segments have a segment length for forming a preselected number of crosspoint devices thereon. Each row wire segment in the second circuit plane is connected to a row wire segment in the first circuit plane with no offset in a row direction and in a column direction, and each column wire segment in the second circuit plane is connected to a column wire segment in the first circuit plane with an offset length in both the row direction and the column direction. The offset length corresponds to half of the preselected number of crosspoint devices.

    摘要: An information storage device is provided. The information storage device may be a magnetic random access memory (MRAM) device including a resistive cross point array of spin dependent tunneling (SDT) junctions or magnetic memory elements, with word lines extending along rows of the SDT junctions and bit lines extending along the columns of the SDT junctions. The present design includes a plurality of heating elements connected in series with associated magnetic memory elements, each heating element comprising a diode. Voltage applied to a magnetic memory element and associated heating element causes reverse current to flow through the diode, thereby producing heat from the diode and heating the magnetic memory element, thereby facilitating the write function of the device.

    摘要: A light emitting device with adaptive intensity control. In a particular embodiment, there is an active display pixel providing a light. At least a portion of the provided light is incident upon a photodetector optically coupled to the display pixel, the photodetector providing an electrical feedback signal in response to the light. A feedback controlled intensity controller electrically coupled to the photodetector and an electrical switch coupled to the active display pixel are also provided. The feedback controlled intensity controller further receives an electrical reference signal. The feedback controlled intensity controller opens and closes the switch depending upon the relationship of the feedback signal to the reference signal.
