    摘要: A random, number generating apparatus includes a first ring oscillator and a second ring oscillator, each having a quantity of delay elements different from, the other, a signal output unit, a selecting unit, a logic circuit, and a random signal output unit. The signal output unit receives a first signal output from the first ring oscillator and a second signal output from, the second ring oscillator and outputs the first signal or the second signal. The selecting unit selects a signal to be output from the signal output unit. The logic circuit receives the signal selected by the selecting unit and the output from the signal output unit and outputs an output signal. The random signal output unit receives the output signal output from the logic circuit and a clock signal and outputs a random signal.

    摘要: A low clock power data-gated flip-flop is provided. The data-gated flip-flop includes an exclusive OR component including a first exclusive OR input, a second exclusive OR input, and a first exclusive OR output. The first exclusive OR input is configured to receive a data input to the data-gated flip-flop. The data-gated flip-flop includes a first latch including a first latch data input and a first latch reset input, the first exclusive OR output being coupled to the first latch data input and the first latch reset input. The data-gated flip-flop includes a second latch having a data output, the data output coupled to the second exclusive OR input.

    摘要: Methods and systems are described for receiving, at a data-driven phase comparator circuit, a plurality of data signals in parallel and one or more phases of a local oscillator signal, the data-driven phase comparator circuit comprising a plurality of partial phase comparators, generating a plurality of partial phase-error signals using the partial phase comparators, each partial phase-error signal generated by receiving (i) a corresponding phase of the local oscillator signal and (ii) a corresponding data signal of the plurality of data signals and responsive to a determination that a transition occurred in the corresponding data signal, generating the partial phase-error signal based on a comparison of the corresponding phase of the local oscillator signal and the corresponding data signal, and generating a composite phase-error signal by summing the plurality of partial phase error signals for setting a local oscillator in a lock condition.

    摘要: Implementations of data compilers may include: a physical device including a physical parameter, the physical parameter including at least three states. The data compiler may also include a data stream generated from the physical parameter. The data stream may include a plurality of bits. Each bit may be coded with one of a 0, a 1, and an X; the 0, the 1, and the X may correspond with one of the at least three states of the physical parameter, respectively. The data compiler may also include an exclusive OR (XOR) data processor. The XOR processor may be configured to randomize the at least three states of the data stream and output a randomized output data stream.
