    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure provide power gating for stacked die structures. In some examples, a stacked die structure comprises a first die and a second die bonded to the first die. In some examples, a power gated power path is from a bonding interface between the dies through TSVs in the second die, a power gating device in the second die, and routing of metallization layers in the second die to the circuit region in the second die. In some examples, a power gated power path comprises a power gating device in a power gating region of the first die and is configured to interrupt a flow of current through the power gated power path to a circuit region in the second die.

    Abstract: Disclosed approaches for circuitry that implements a softmax function include difference calculation circuitry configured to calculate differences between combinations of elements, zk−zj, of a vector. First lookup circuitry is configured to lookup and output representations of exponential values, ezk−zj associated with the differences in response to input of the differences. Each adder circuit of N adder circuits sums a subset of the exponential values output from the first lookup circuitry and a value of 1. The sum output by each adder circuit denotes a denominator of a plurality of denominators of the softmax function. Second lookup circuitry is configured with quotients and looks-up and outputs quotients associated with the plurality of denominators as results of the softmax function.

    Abstract: Configurable termination circuits for use with programmable logic devices are disclosed. In one implementation, the termination circuit may include one or more components to couple unused inputs of one or more configurable logic blocks to a fixed voltage. In another implementation, the termination circuit may include one or more components to couple unused inputs of one or more configurable logic blocks to an output of the one or more configurable logic blocks. In some implementations, the programmable logic device may include a platform management controller to configure the termination circuits based on configuration data.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe an interface between PL fabric and a hardened block that includes a programmable pipeline. This pipeline includes at least a sequential element and a bypass path. For time critical nets in a netlist, the programmable IC routes a net through the sequential element. Doing so mitigates or eliminates the uncertainty associated with routing the net from the hardened block through PL fabric. Also, the sequential element can increase the available time for capturing the data. For less time critical nets, the net can route through the bypass path. This means the route from the hardened block to the PL fabric is determined on the fly by a routing algorithm rather than being fixed.
