摘要:
In accordance with the USB specifications, an accuracy of 0.25% is required for the data transmission rate. To generate a clock signal that allows this accuracy, the invention uses a clock generator unit that does not require a crystal. The clock generator unit includes an internal clock generator, a pulse counter that is connected to the internal clock generator, a pulse number memory, and a pulse filter. The pulse counter counts the number of internally generated clock pulses between two pulses of the synchronization signal, which are transmitted in accordance with the USB specification. The difference between the ascertained pulse number and a nominal pulse number is evaluated and is used for controlling the pulse-suppressing pulse filter. This results in a stabilized clock signal.

A voltage monitoring arrangement including a number of comparison devices, which corresponds to a prescribed number of voltage ranges, compares the value of an input voltage with a reference voltage and outputs a prescribed signal if the input voltage is within one of the prescribed voltage ranges. The voltage monitoring arrangement has a latch circuit which, when a latch signal is applied, establishes which voltage range the input voltage is currently in when the latch signal is applied, resulting in the arrangement having automatic voltage range reduction. The voltage monitoring arrangement has a monitoring unit which outputs a predetermined signal if the input voltage is outside the voltage range which exists when the latch signal is applied.

A description is given of a memory device having memory cells for storing data. The memory device described is distinguished by the fact that a current switch-off device is provided, which prevents an existing current flow through the memory cell to be read in response to the identification of the memory cell content, and/or that a discharge device is provided, which partly discharges again a node in the memory cell which is to be precharged before the memory cell is read.
