    摘要: A block compiler system that allows a user to specify the total number of words and bits per word in a memory structure and to choose among alternative memory structures according to a user-selected criterion. In operation, the system varies the partitioning of memory address lines among column address lines and row address lines. Further, the system varies the internal memory structure according to a selected partitioning of memory address lines among column address lines and row address lines, and optimizes the memory structure based upon higher-level user-selected criteria.

    摘要: A buffer characterized by a pull-up network and a pull-down network which are both coupled between an input and an output of the buffer. Each of the networks include a number of switch elements which can be sequentially turned on or off by means of an RC network to provide slew-rate control for the buffer. Preferably, each of the networks are associated with diode bypass networks to reduce crowbar current. In operation, both the pull-up network and the pull-down network turn on slowly but turn off very quickly due to the diode bypass networks.

    摘要: Slew-rate control is implemented in input/output device structures where MOSFETs are employed to switch the output signal. These MOSFETs each have a substrate, an insulating layer adjacent to the substrate and a strip of semiconductor material separated from the substrate by the insulating layer. The strip of semiconductor material functions as the gate of the MOSFET. The strip of semiconductor material does not form a closed loop. One end of the strip of a first transistor is connected to one end of the strip of the second transistor. Thus, the gates of the two transistors are placed in series so that they are not switched on at the same time. A delay is thereby automatically introduced between the switching on of the two transistors. The delay is controlled by placing metal straps across selected transistor gates to effectively bypass the delays caused by the current propagating through the gates. Further control of the delay is gained by use of a feedback signal to increase or decrease the current in the gates.

    摘要: An IC having a test grid structure including intersecting probe lines and control/sense lines is used to apply desired logic states directly to internal transmission paths of select storage elements. A switch is located at each intersection for conducting the desired logic state to the internal transmission path. To achieve overwriting and storage of the desired logic state, the conventional storage element is modified to include a transmission gate activated by an overwrite enable signal. The overwrite enable signal is defined by one or more probe lines. To overwrite the contents of a storage element, the storage element is selected by turning on the switch with a probe line coupled to such switch, while the included transmission gate is disabled by receiving the overwrite enable signal. The logic state of the control/sense line is conducted into the storage element to the included transmission gate where it overwrites the current contents and is stored.
