摘要:
A memory device having test circuitry incorporated into its design to enable direct external access to the bit lines of a single cell is described. When the device is put in test mode by applying external control signals, peripheral I/O circuitry is disabled. Once the I/O circuitry is disabled the test circuitry selects and enables the section of the array in which the selected cell is located through transfer circuits. The enabled transfer circuit for the selected section couples data between the selected cell and a set of predetermined I/O terminals.

A mixed signal circuit architecture is disclosed for automatic frequency control and digital temperature compensation in an LC-PLL system. Some embodiments allow for high-volume manufacturing of products such as microprocessors and chipsets, and other circuits that employ LC-PLL technology. In some embodiments, various capacitor loadings can be selected to compensate for variation associated with process, voltage, temperature, and reference frequency. In addition, a multi-leg capacitor bank can be selectively used to further compensate for temperature variation post-lock, in accordance with some embodiments. A programmable timer can be used in some embodiments to allow for loop settling prior to assessing parameters of interest.

A clock signal distribution network for a high-speed microprocessor includes a clock synthesizer coupled to receive an externally generated clock signal. The clock synthesizer deskews the external clock to generate an internal clock signal, which is then distributed about the semiconductor die by a conductivity tree. A set of local deskewing clock generators are coupled to branch interconnects of the tree and function as a zero-delay buffers for driving proximally located circuitry.
摘要:
A multiple synthesizer based timing signal generation scheme is described that allows accurate data and strobe generation in high speed source synchronous system interfaces. Multiple loop locked clock synthesizers (e.g., phase locked loops, delay locked loops) are used to generate multiple clock signals. Data and strobe signals are triggered off of transitions of one of the clock signals. Because multiple loop locked clock synthesizers are used to generate the clock signals, optimal or near optimal alignment of the data and strobe signals can be achieved. Improved alignment of the data and strobe signals provides improved data transmission rates.
