The joint detection system is configured to perform joint detection of received signals and includes a joint detector accelerator and a programmable digital signal processor (DSP). The joint detector accelerator is configured to perform front-end processing of first data inputted to the joint detector accelerator and output second data resulting from the front-end processing. The joint detector accelerator is further configured to perform back-end processing using at least third data inputted to the joint detector accelerator. The programmable DSP is coupled to the joint detector accelerator, and the programmable DSP is programmed to perform at least one intermediate processing operation using the second data outputted by the joint detector accelerator. The programmable DSP is further programmed to output the third data resulting from the intermediate processing operation to the joint detector accelerator.

    摘要: A multiple bus architecture includes multiple processors, and one or more shared peripherals such as memory. The architecture includes plural bus masters, each connected to its own bus. There are also plural bus slaves, each connected to its own bus. A bus arbitration module selectively interconnects the buses, so that when the plural bus masters each access a different bus slave, no blocking occurs, and when the plural bus masers each access a same bus slave, bandwidth starvation is avoided. The architecture is supported by a bus arbitration method including hierarchical application of an interrupt-based method, an assigned slot rotation method and a round-robin method, which avoids both bandwidth starvation and lockout during extended periods of bus contention.

    摘要: Described is an apparatus and a method for pulling an integrated circuit I/O pad to a known state and providing a current path between the pad and a source of potential during periods when an I/O voltage is likely to be floating. At least one I/O transistor coupled between the I/O pad and a source of potential is provided. Also provided is a combinatorial circuit connected to the I/O transistor to turn on the I/O transistor during periods that the I/O voltage is likely to be floating.

    摘要: Described is a Schmitt trigger cell that can be disabled under conditions of unknown gate voltages (e.g., floating or toggling input) such that the core is isolated from the Schmitt trigger input. This is accomplished by circuitry that disables current flow through those transistors whose gate voltages are unknown during such conditions and that forces a known output onto the output terminal.

    摘要: An interface to transfer data between a host processor and an external coprocessor is provided. The interface may operate in several write modes, in which in a first write mode the write operation is transferred across the interface in two clock cycles and in a second write mode the write operation is transferred across the interface in a single clock cycle. The interface can perform a first read operation initiated by the host processor and a second read operation initiated by the external coprocessor. The interface can include buffers to store read and write operations and clock gates to selectively gate off clock signals provided to the buffers to synchronize transfer of data into and out of the buffers. A selectable priority scheme can be modified to select between priorities that control a preference in transferring operations over the interface when both read and write operations are queued for transfer.
