    摘要： A pulse generating circuit that includes an unbalanced latch and a feedback circuit. The unbalanced latch is configured to generate a latch signal having a predetermined state in response to application of power to the circuit. The feedback circuit is coupled in a negative feedback arrangement with the unbalanced latch and generates a pulse signal for a predetermined period of time in response to the latch signal.

    摘要： A delay locked loop (DLL) is described in which a phase detector compares the phase of the output of the DLL with that of a reference input. The output of the phase comparator drives a differential charge pump which functions to integrate the phase comparator output signal over time. The charge pump output controls a phase shifter with unlimited range that adjusts the phase of the DLL output so that the output of the phase comparator is high 50% of the time on average. Because the DLL adjusts the phase shifter until the output of the phase detector is high 50% of the time, on average, the relationship of the DLL output clock to the input reference clock depends only on the type of phase detector used. For example, when a data receiver is used as the phase detector in the DLL, the output of the DLL is a clock signal which can be used as a sampling clock for data receivers elsewhere in the system, and is timed to sample data at the optional instant independent of temperature, supply voltage and process variations. Alternatively, a quadrature phase detector may be employed to generate a clock signal that possesses a quadrature (90.degree. ) relationship with a reference clock signal input. This may be used, for example, to generate a transmit clock for a data transmission device. Furthermore, the DLL is controlled to minimize dither jitter while minimizing acquisition time. In addition, duty cycle correcting amplifiers are employed to produce a DLL output clock that has a desired duty cycle, for example 50%. Additionally, the inputs to the charge pump are reversed in alternate quadrants of the phase plane in order to enable unlimited phase shift with a finite control voltage range.

    摘要： Delay locked loop circuitry for generating a predetermined phase relationship between a pair of clocks. A first delay-locked loop includes a delay elements arranged in a chain, the chain receiving an input clock and generating, from each delay element, a set of phase vectors, each shifted a unit delay from the adjacent vector. The first delay-locked loop adjusts the unit delays in the delay chain using a delay adjustment signal so that the phase vectors span a predetermined phase shift of the input clock. A second delay-locked loop selects, from the first delay-locked loop, a pair of phase vectors which brackets the phase of an input clock. A phase interpolator receives the selected pair of vectors and generates an output clock and a delayed output clock, the amount of the delay being controlled by the delay adjustment signal of the first delay-locked loop circuitry. A phase detector compares the delayed output clock with the input clock and adjusts the phase interpolator, based on the phase comparison, so that the phase of the delayed output clock is in phase with the input clock. As a result, there is a predetermined phase relationship between the output clock and the input clock, the phase relationship being the amount of delay between the output clock and the delayed output clock. Different phase relationships between the input and output clock are possible depending on the number of unit delays used in the path of the delayed output clock or the output clock.

    摘要： Extremely dense memory cell structures provide for new array structures useful for implementing memory and logic functions. An exemplary non-volatile memory array includes a first plurality of X-lines configured to be logically identical in a read mode of operation, and each associated with a first Y-line group numbering at least one Y-line. Each of the first plurality of X-lines may also be associated with a second Y-line group numbering at least one Y-line. In some embodiments, the first and second Y-Line groups are simultaneously selectable in a read mode and, when so selected, are respectively coupled to true and complement inputs of a sense amplifier circuit. Such Y-line groups may number only one Y-line, or may number more than one Y-line. Many types of memory cells may be used, such as various passive element cells and EEPROM cells, in both 2D or 3D memory arrays. Such arrays may be configured as a memory to store data, or configured to perform threshold logic, or configured as a content addressable memory array.
