摘要:
Provided are a microprocessor suitable for constructing a multi-processor system and a method for controlling the reset and processor ID of the microprocessor. The microprocessor includes decoder receiving a reset ID having a predetermined binary value and a reset signal and decoding the reset ID, an ID generator receiving the decoding result of the decoder and generating at least one microprocessor ID and a reset ID of a microprocessor serially connected to the microprocessor, and a reset vector unit selecting a reset vector according to the decoding result of the decoder. The multi-processor system is constructed such that independent microprocessors of the system respectively generate their own reset vectors and processor IDs when a reset signal is input to the multi-processor system to initialize it. Thus, all the microprocessors of the system can be simultaneously started up when the reset signal is disabled. Accordingly, a resetting process in the multi-processor system is simplified, a period of time required for starting up the microprocessor is reduced, and the multi-processor system is easily designed.

Provided are a microprocessor based on event-processing instruction set and an event-processing method using the same. The microprocessor includes an event register controlling an event according to an event-processing instruction set provided in an instruction set architecture (ISA) and an event controller transmitting externally generated events into the microprocessor. Therefore, the microprocessor may be useful to reduce its unnecessary power consumption by suspending the execution of its program when an instruction decoded to execute the program is an event-processing instruction, and also to cut off its unnecessary power consumption that is caused for an interrupt delay period since the program of the microprocessor may be executed again by immediately re-running the microprocessor with the operation of the event register and the event controller when external events are generated.

Provided are a data transmitting device transmitting data through a delay insensitive data transmitting method and a data transmitting method. The data transmitting device and the data transmitting method use the delay insensitive data transmitting method supporting a 2-phase hand shake protocol. During data transmission, data are encoded into three logic state having no space state through a ternary encoding method. According to the data transmitting device and the data transmitting method, data are stably transmitted to a receiver regardless of the length of a wire, and provides more excellent performance in an aspect of a data transmission rate, compared to a related art 4-phase delay data transmitting method.

摘要:
A ramp waveform generating apparatus generates a reference waveform by using an input signal and generates a driving control signal for turning on and off a switch having a first terminal connected to a load and a second terminal connected to a power supply by comparing the voltage of the reference waveform with the voltage of the load. While the switch is repetitively turned on and off in accordance with the driving control signal, a ramp waveform may be generated.
