摘要: A method and apparatus for bus repeater tapering. The sizing of repeaters on a portion of one transmission line is chosen to propagate a signal transition at a particular rate. The sizing of repeaters on a substantially parallel portion of another transmission line, is chosen to propagate a second signal transition at a different rate. Thus, the worst-case capacitance coupling factor between the two transmission lines may be reduced.

摘要: A SRAM device is provided having a plurality of memory cells. Each memory cell may include a plurality of transistors coupled in a cross-coupled inverter configuration. An NMOS transistor may be coupled to a body of the two PMOS transistors in the cross-coupled inverter configuration so as to apply a forward body bias to the PMOS transistors of the cross-coupled inverter configuration. A power control unit may control a supply voltage to each of the PMOS transistors as well as apply the switching signal to the NMOS transistor based on a STANDBY mode of the memory cell.

摘要: An apparatus and method are provided for limiting a drop of a supply voltage in an SRAM device to retain the state of the memory during an IDLE state. The apparatus may include a memory array, a sleep device, and a clamping circuit. The clamping circuit may be configured to activate the sleep device when a voltage drop across the memory array falls below a preset voltage and the memory array is in an IDLE state.

摘要: A method and apparatus for performing majority voting is presented. The method selects pairs of inputs, performs AND and NOR operations on each pair of inputs to determine that each pair of inputs is both high or both low, yielding a quantity of “both high” pairs and a quantity of “both low” pairs, and compares the quantity of “both high” pairs against the quantity of “both low” pairs to determine the majority. The apparatus includes AND gates configured to receive pairs of values and NOR gates configured to receive the same pairs of values, with a connections between all AND gates and connections between all NOR gates.
