摘要:
A non-volatile memory cell includes NMOS programming, read, erase, and control transistors having gate electrodes connected to a storage node. The erase and control transistors have interconnected source, drain, and bulk electrodes. The cell is programmed by setting source, drain, bulk, and gate electrodes of all transistors to a positive voltage. An inhibiting voltage is applied to source, drain, and bulk electrodes of the read transistor, while setting source and drain electrodes of the programming transistor to the positive voltage and the bulk electrode of the programming transistor to the positive voltage or the inhibiting voltage. Source, drain, and bulk electrodes of the control transistor are then ramped to a negative control voltage while ramping source, drain, and bulk electrodes of the erase transistor to a negative erase voltage and then back to the positive voltage. Source, drain. bulk, and gate electrodes of the programming, erase, and control transistors are then returned to the positive voltage, while setting the source, drain, and bulk electrodes of the read transistor to the inhibiting voltage.

摘要:
A system and method is described that allows a PoE-capable switch to selectively provide power to one or more remote devices in an instance where power being supplied to the switch itself is limited or failing. In one embodiment, the switch receives a notification from an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) and, in response to receiving the notification, selectively provides power to one or more devices powered by the switch. Selectively providing power to one or more of the devices may include providing power to only a subset of the devices, providing a different amount of power to different ones of the devices, or providing power for different durations to different ones of the devices. In an alternate embodiment, in response to receiving the notification, the switch communicates with a remote device and causes the remote device to activate at least one power saving feature.

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for an automatically configured network switch are provided. The network switch includes a plurality of ports, a switch fabric, switch control logic, and a switch configuration module. The ports are configured to be coupled to a plurality of network communication links. The switch fabric is coupled to each of the ports, providing interconnections between the ports. The switch control logic is coupled to the switch fabric to provide data path selection and arbitration. The switch configuration module is configured to generate a request for switch configuration information to be transmitted from one or more ports of the switch, over the network, to a switch management server. The switch control logic is configured to configure one or more features of the network switch to operate according to the received configuration information.
