    摘要: In various embodiments, a clock pulse generation circuit may include a combination circuit, a first set-reset (SR) latch, a second SR latch, and a pulse generator. The combination circuit may be configured to generate a set signal based on an external clock signal. The first SR latch may be configured to generate an internal clock signal based on the reset signal and the set signal. The second SR latch may be configured to generate the reset signal based on the external clock signal and a reset pulse signal. The pulse generator may be configured to generate the reset pulse signal based on the internal clock signal. As a result, the clock pulse generation circuit may be configured to prevent the set signal from being asserted when the reset signal is asserted.

    摘要: An electronic device includes: a DC power source which supplies a first DC supply voltage; a DC voltage converter which is enabled or disabled in response to a first control signal, and which converts the first DC supply voltage into a second DC supply voltage different from the first DC supply voltage, when the DC voltage converter is enabled; a switch which selects and supplies either the first DC supply voltage or the second DC supply voltage as an output in response to a second control signal; a DC voltage regulator which is enabled or disabled in response to a third control signal, and which converts the DC supply voltage selected by the switch into a third supply voltage lower than the selected DC supply voltage when said DC voltage regulator is enabled; a control unit which provides the second control signal to the switch; and a loading which utilizes the third DC supply voltage. While the loading is operating intermittently, the control unit provides to the DC voltage converter the first control signal for disabling the DC voltage converter, provides to the switch the second control signal for selecting the first DC supply voltage, and provides to the DC voltage regulator the third control signal for enabling the DC voltage regulator.

    摘要: A current-limiting device for A.C. systems comprises saturable reactors with superconducting bias windings which maintain the reactors in saturation for normal A.C. loads. Excess current drives one of the reactors out of saturation on alternate half-cycles and thus creates a large flux change with accompanying back EMF to limit the current. The device is applicable to the connection of electric power distribution systems to limit fault currents and to allow power transfer without loss of stability.

    摘要: A clock driver control scheme for a resonant clock distribution network provides robust operation by controlling a pulse width of the output of clock driver circuits that drive the resonant clock distribution network so that changes are sequenced. The clock driver control circuit controls the clock driver circuits in the corresponding sector according to a selected operating mode via a plurality of control signals provided to corresponding clock driver circuits. The pulse widths differ for at least some of the sectors during operation of digital circuits within the integrated circuit having clock inputs coupled to the resonant clock distribution network. The different pulse widths may be a transient difference that is imposed in response to a mode or frequency change of the global clock that provides an input to the clock driver circuits.

    摘要: Clock processing logic and method for determining clock signal characteristics in reference voltage and temperature varying environments are described. A sample vector is characterized by bit locations corresponding to sequentially increasing delay values so that values stored in such bit locations indicate clock signal edges where value transitions occur. In one embodiment, edge detection logic and sensitivity adjustment logic are used in determining the clock period from such a sample vector. In another embodiment, an edge filter, sample accumulation logic, and clock period and jitter processing logic are used in determining an average clock period and clock jitter from a predefined number of such sample vectors.
