Abstract:
A method is provided for operating a network switch comprising a plurality of input ports and a plurality of output ports. The method comprises receiving a first data packet received via a first input port and a second data packet received via a second input port to be delivered to an egress endpoint connected to a first output port, configuring a plurality of crossbar switch units arranged in a tiled architecture to pass the first data packet to the first output port via a primary path and pass the second data packet to the first output port via a secondary path, and transmitting the first data packet and the second data packet to the egress endpoint. The first data packet and the second data packet pass through the plurality of crossbar switch units simultaneously.
Abstract:
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for implementing asymmetric AES-CBC (Advanced Encryption Standard-Cipher Block Chaining) channels usage between encryption and decryption of data. In operation, data to be written to memory is identified. In addition, the data is encrypted utilizing a first AES-CBC channel. Additionally, at least one of a plurality of AES-CBC channels is utilized to decrypt the data to achieve a determined performance target.
Abstract:
A Dynamic Destination Selection (DDS) crossbar, system for routing a packet, and a switch are provided. An illustrative DDS crossbar includes one or more adaptive routing circuits to track destination credit and port availability at a time of dispatching a packet, group multiple destinations into super destination groups, perform dynamic destination routing within a super destination group, and use the destination credit and port availability for the super destination group at the time of receiving the packet to select an output destination for the packet.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides improvements for transmitting data between different voltage domains of an IC, such as a chip. The disclosure introduces a data transfer circuit that uses a multi-voltage RAM, referred to herein as MVRAM, for transmitting data across the different voltage domains. The MVRAM has multiple memory cells with write ports and read ports on different clock and voltage domains. Accordingly, a write operation can occur completely on the write domain voltage and the read operation can occur completely on the read domain voltage. In one example, the data transfer circuit includes: (1) write logic operating at a first operating voltage, (2) read logic operating at second operating voltage, and (3) a MVRAM with write ports that operate under the first operating voltage and read ports that operate under the second operating voltage.

Abstract:
A system, method, and computer program product for recovering from a memory underflow condition associated with generating video signals are disclosed. The method includes the steps of determining that a first counter is greater than a second counter, incrementing an address corresponding to a memory fetch request by an offset, and issuing the memory fetch request to a memory. The first counter represents a number of pixels that have been read by a display pipeline for a current frame and the second counter represents a number of pixels requested from a memory for the current frame.
