    摘要: For one disclosed embodiment, an apparatus comprises a first p-type device coupled between a cell voltage node and a storage node, an n-type device coupled between the storage node and a reference voltage node, and a second p-type device to couple the storage node to a bit line in response to a signal on a select line. At least one side of diffusion regions in a substrate to form both the first p-type device and the second p-type device are substantially aligned. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

    摘要: A method of reducing power consumption in a computing platform is disclosed. An endpoint-device that is coupled to the computing platform includes a first data buffer and a second data buffer. The first data buffer buffers outgoing data to be transmitted to an external device via a first communications medium. The second data buffer buffers incoming data received from the external device via the first communications medium. At least one of the first or second data buffers may selectively communicate with the computing platform, via a second communications medium, during an active window of the other data buffer. The active window may be requested by the first and/or second data buffers based, at least in part, on a system idle signal. For some embodiments, the first communications medium is an Ethernet link. Further, for some embodiments, the second communications medium is a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) link.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed that allow for power conservation in integrated circuit memories, such as SRAM. The techniques can be embodied in circuitry that allows for floating of bitlines to eliminate or otherwise reduce power leakage associated with precharging bitlines. For instance, the techniques can be embodied in a bitline floating circuit having a single logic gate for qualifying the precharge control signal with a wake signal, so that precharging of the bitline does not occur if the wake signal is not in an active state. The techniques further allow for the elimination or reduction of unnecessary power consumption by the I/O circuitry or the memory array, such as when the memory array is not being accessed or when the array or a portion thereof is permanently disabled for yield recovery.
