    • A programmable clock generator circuit receives control signals and a global clock and generates a pulsed data clock and a scan clock in response to gating signals. The clock generator has data clock and scan clock feed-forward paths and a single feedback path. Delay control signals program delay elements in the feedback path and logic gates reshape and generate a feedback clock signal. The global clock and the feedback clock signal are combined to generates a pulsed local clock signal. A scan clock feed-forward circuit receives the local clock and generates the scan clock. A data clock feed-forward circuit receives the local clock and generates the data clock with a logic controlled delay relative to the local clock signal. The feedback clock is generated with controlled delay thereby modifying the pulse width of the data and scan clocks independent of the controlled delay of the data clock feed-forward path.
    • 可编程时钟发生器电路接收控制信号和全局时钟,并响应门控信号产生脉冲数据时钟和扫描时钟。 时钟发生器具有数据时钟和扫描时钟前馈路径和单个反馈路径。 延迟控制信号在反馈路径中的程序延迟元件和逻辑门重新形成并产生反馈时钟信号。 全局时钟和反馈时钟信号被组合以产生脉冲本地时钟信号。 扫描时钟前馈电路接收本地时钟并产生扫描时钟。 数据时钟前馈电路接收本地时钟并产生相对于本地时钟信号的逻辑控制延迟的数据时钟。 以受控的延迟产生反馈时钟,从而修改数据的脉冲宽度和扫描时钟,而与数据时钟前馈路径的受控延迟无关。

    • A high performance, low power up/down counter is set forth. The counter presented is controlled by two clock pulses, an up pulse and a down pulse, and updates all bits of the counter in parallel. These bits are then latched using a scannable pulsed limited output switching dynamic logic latch. By using a limited switch dynamic logic latch, the counter is able to utilize the speed of dynamic logic without requiring the traditional dynamic logic power. The area saved and speed gained by using a dynamic latch is significant compared to a typical edge-triggered flip-flop. Additionally, by computing all the next count state bits in parallel, the counter reduces an overall count computation delay by eliminating the counter ripple.
    • 提出了一个高性能,低功耗的上/下计数器。 提供的计数器由两个时钟脉冲,上升脉冲和下降脉冲控制,并并行更新计数器的所有位。 然后使用可扫描的脉冲限制输出开关动态逻辑锁存器锁存这些位。 通过使用有限开关动态逻辑锁存器,计数器能够利用动态逻辑的速度,而不需要传统的动态逻辑电源。 与典型的边沿触发触发器相比,通过使用动态锁存器保存的区域和速度是显着的。 此外,通过并行计算所有下一个计数状态位,计数器通过消除计数器纹波来减少总计数计算延迟。

    • A cascaded pass-gate test circuit including interposed split-output drive devices provides accurate measurement of critical timing parameters of pass gates. The rise time and fall time of signals passed through the pass gate can be separately measured in a ring oscillator or one-shot delay line configuration. Inverters or other buffer circuits are provided as drive devices to couple the pass gates in cascade. The final complementary tree in each drive device is split so that the only one of the output pull-down transistor or pull-up transistor is connected to the next pass gate input, while the other transistor is connected to the output of the pass gate. The result is that the state transition associated with the device connected to the pass gate input is dominant in the delay, while the other state transition is propagated directly to the output of the pass gate, bypassing the pass gate.

    • In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a local clock buffer (LCB) fabricated in a semiconductor receives a global clock signal as input. The LCB implements a pulse width controller that is operationally coupled to the LCB and an output driver forming a ring oscillator. The output driver outputs a pulse width adjusted signal. The pulse width of the pulse width adjusted signal is adjustable by way of the pulse width controller and is related in frequency to the global clock signal. A second ring oscillator (also referred to as the nclk loop) can also be implemented to server as the global clock signal. The pulse width controller can be used to precisely adjust the pulse width of the pulse width adjusted signal. A pulse width multiplier can be implemented to allow direct observation and measurement of the pulse width of the pulse width adjusted signal.

    • An LSDL circuit replaces the normal clock control of the pre-charge device for the dynamic node with a control signal that is logic zero whenever the circuit is in an active mode and is a logic one when the circuit is in standby mode. The pre-charge device holds the dynamic node at a pre-charged logic one state independent of the clock. During the logic one evaluate time of the clock, the logic tree determines the asserted state of the dynamic node. During the evaluate time, the asserted state is latched by the static LSDL section. The dynamic node then re-charges to the pre-charge state. Since the pre-charge device is not de-gated during the evaluate time, the dynamic node cannot be inadvertently discharged by noise causing an error. Likewise, since the clock does not couple to the pre-charge device a load is removed from the clock tree lowering clock power.
    • 只要电路处于活动模式,LSDL电路用动态节点的预充电装置的正常时钟控制替代逻辑零的控制信号,并且当电路处于待机模式时,逻辑为逻辑1。 预充电装置将动态节点保持在与时钟无关的预充电逻辑1状态。 在逻辑1期间评估时钟的时间,逻辑树确定动态节点的被断言状态。 在评估时间期间,断言状态由静态LSDL部分锁存。 然后动态节点重新充电到预充电状态。 由于在评估时间期间预充电装置没有被去门,所以动态节点不能被无意中的噪声放电,导致错误。 类似地,由于时钟不耦合到预充电装置,所以从时钟树中降低时钟功率的负载被去除。

    • A buffer/driver having large output devices for driving multiple loads is configured with three parallel paths. The first logic path is made of small devices and is configured to provide the logic function of the buffer/driver without the ability to drive large loads. Second and third logic paths have the logic function of the first logic path up to the last inverting stage. The last inverting stage in each path is a single device for driving the logic states of the buffer output. The second and third logic paths have power-gating that allows the input to the pull-up and pull-down devices to float removing gate-leakage voltage stress. When the second and third logic paths are power-gated, the first logic path provides a keeper function to hold the logic state of the buffer output. The buffer/driver may be an inverter, non-inverter, or provide a multiple input logic function.

    • A digital frequency multiplier circuit is disclosed. The digital frequency multiplier circuit includes a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO), a phase detector and a control circuit. The DCO generates an internal feedback signal. The phase detector detects a phase difference between the internal feedback signal and an external reference clock signal. Coupled between the phase detector and the DCO, the control circuit adjusts the DCO to align the internal feedback signal with the external reference clock signal after a phase difference between the internal feedback signal and the external reference clock signal has been detected. The control circuit also locks a modulation frequency of the DCO and monitors the state of the digital frequency multiplier circuit in order to maintain the lock.
