摘要:
A function block allows a multiplier and a multi-input multiplexer to be realized with a small number of blocks. A logical function generator generates a logical output signal from first to fourth logical inputs thereof according to a logical function selected from a plurality of 4-input/1-output logical functions depending on configuration data. A 4-2 carry block generates a 4-2 carry output from the second to fourth logical inputs. A first signal is generated from at least the logical output, a second signal from at least the first logical input, a third signal from at least a 4-2 carry input signal, and a fourth signal from at least the 4-2 carry input signal. A multiplexer selects one of the second and third signals depending on the first signal to produce a carry output signal. An exclusive OR circuit produce an exclusive-ORed result from the logical output and the fourth signal.

The ECL circuit comprises an emitter-follower circuit with first and second transistors having collectors connected to a first power supply (Vcc), and emitters operatively connected to a second power supply (Vee2) approximately 1.5 volts less than the first power supply.

A differential signal current-mode logic (CML) circuit is provided which provides an equal delay output. Convention differential logic CML circuits have upper stage and lower stage transistors pairs. Input signals that are provided to the lower stage are necessarily delayed with respect to inputs provided to the upper stage. The present invention provides parallel upper stage sections so that each input signal is translated to the output through the same number of transistors. Thus, the delay associated with each input signal is made equal. Specific examples of exclusive OR, OR, and AND circuits are provided.

摘要:
An apparatus for converting a differential mode signal into a single ended signal with reduced power consumption. A preferred embodiment comprises a single ended converter (for example, a single ended converter 505) and an output transistor (for example, output transistor 524) that when the single ended converter 505 is in standby may pull the output of the single ended converter 505 to a known logic state (such as high logic or low logic). A single ended buffer (inverting or non-inverting) may be used for output signal compatibility conversion.
