    摘要: Methods and apparatus for decoding addresses in a memory to provide mixed input and output data widths. A method includes receiving an address portion comprising a first number of bits. A second number of bits of the address portion are blocked, where the second number is less than the first number. A third number of bits are not blocked, and the third number plus the second number equal the first number. The third number of bits are decoded and a fourth number of memory cells are selected. The fourth number is equal to two to the power of the second number. A fourth number of data bits are received and multiplexed to the selected memory cells. The data bits are written to the selected memory cells.

    摘要: A Schmitt trigger circuit has an adjustable hysteresis characteristic by providing a plurality of feedback circuits that differently affect at least one, and preferably both, of the circuit's upper trip point level and lower trip point level. The upper trip point level can be adjusted by selecting a desired feedback circuit from a first set of feedback circuits, and/or the lower trip point level can be adjusted by selecting a desired feedback circuit from a second set of feedback circuits. Feedback circuit selection is achieved by one or more control signals that may be programmable. The hysteresis characteristic can be adjusted to meet desired noise margin, delay, and input recognition criteria at different VCC levels. The Schmitt trigger circuit may be a CMOS Schmitt trigger with two input stage NMOS, two input stage PMOS transistors, a first set of NMOS feedback circuits, and a second set of PMOS feedback circuits.

    摘要: A switch circuit selectively provides a reference voltage, needed in some I/O standards, to a logic device. The circuit receives a dedicated power supply that is different from the device's I/O supply. It may also include a level shifting circuit for converting a master control signal having a logic level determined by a first supply to a first control signal having a logic level determined by the dedicated supply. The switch circuit also includes a transmission switch that passes the reference voltage to an output in response to at least the first control signal. The transmission switch may be a CMOS transmission gate with at least one NMOS transistor controlled by the first control signal in parallel with at least one PMOS transistor controlled by a second control signal, complementary to the first. The second control signal may be generated by another level shifting circuit and have a logic level determined by the I/O supply.
