    摘要: A programmable interconnect which closely integrates an independent switching transistor with separate NVM programming and erasing elements. The programming element is an EPROM transistor and the erasing element is a Fowler-Nordheim tunneling device. A unitary floating gate is shared by the switching transistor and the NVM programming and elements which charge and discharge the floating gate. The shared floating gate structure is the memory structure of the integrated programmable interconnect and controls the impedance of the switching transistor.

    摘要: A multi-cache memory system resides on-chip with a system interface to external memory. A general cache memory holds frequently used data and OPCODES for delivery to a processor in one clock cycle. A microcode cache holds frequently used microcode instruction words for delivery to the processor in one clock cycle. Both general and microcode cache memories operate to replace less frequently used OPCODES, data words, and microcode instruction words, with more frequently used words.

    摘要: A keyed, true-transparency combine and keyer receive prioritized image information signals and their corresponding input key signals. On the one hand, others have changed the order of the channels carrying the image signals as the priority of the image signals changes. On the other hand, here we interchange the order of a plurality of substantially identical keyer units within a keyer as the priority of the image signals changes. In interchanging the keyer units, true transparency processed key signals are also generated. In so doing that, the i-th keyer unit modifies the value of its input key signal Bk.sub.i using values of input key signals from higher priority channels. Thereby a true transparency processed key signal Pk.sub.i is generated for the i-th priority channel. In one embodiment, a key-taken signal is generated by multiplying a key-requested signal and a key-available signal while a key-now-available signal is generated by subtracting the key-taken signal from the key-available signal. In another embodiment, a key-taken signal is generated by subtracting a key-now-available signal from a key-available signal while a key-now-available signal is generated by multiplying the key-available signal by one minus the key-requested signal. In either embodiment, the generated key-now-available signal from a higher priority i-th channel is provided to a lower priority (i+1)-st channel as the key-available signal for the lower priority channel and the processed key signal Pk.sub.i is generated in response to the key-taken signal.

    摘要: A microcode cache memory is provided on a processor chip for supplying frequently used microcode instruction words to a processor. A bank of multiple Tag-Status RAMs holds addresses of microcode words residing in a bank of Data RAMs. A state machine and a special Least Recently Used Random Access Memory (LRU RAM) operate to maintain the more frequently used words in the Data RAMs so that more hits occur to provide the requested word in one clock cycle. A 90 bit microcode word with 20 fields enables the processor to perform multiple functions simultaneously in parallel.

    摘要: A field programmable device includes two separate and electrically isolated arrays of rows and columns of conductors sharing the same area of an integrated circuit substrate, one array interconnecting memory cells to form a random access memory ("RAM"). The other array forms a full or partial cross-point switching network that is controlled by information stored in memory cells, and/or connects to an operating electronic circuit that is configurable and operable in accordance with information stored in memory cells. In addition, the memory array is easily used to access desired nodes of the circuit array in order to be able to easily observe internal signals during operation. A preferred memory structure is a dynamic random access memory ("DRAM") because of a high density and low cost of existing DRAM fabrication techniques, even though periodic reading and refreshing of the states of the memory cells is required. Several circuits and techniques are used which allow continuous assertion of the memory cell states without interruption during the their refreshing cycles.
