摘要： Integrated circuits with memory circuitry are provided. The memory circuitry may include rows of data line segments. Each data line segment may have associated memory cells, a programmable-strength precharge circuit, a latch circuit, a programmable-strength pull-up circuit, and a data line segment buffer. The precharge circuit may include multiple paths that can be switched into use depending on the configuration of programmable bits. The programmable-strength pull-up circuit may include multiple pull-up paths. The number of pull-up paths in use can be configured. The latch circuit may include a latch inverter that enables the programmable latch circuit during precharge operations. During a precharge period, the latch circuit can be disabled to block contending pull-down current and the data line segment buffer can be disabled to avoid crossbar currents.

Each buffer circuit may have a first input configured to receive an input clock signal, an output at which a corrected version of the input clock signal is provided (e.g., an output at which an output clock signal with desired duty cycle is provided), a second input that receives a first delayed clock signal for setting the desired duty cycle for the output clock signal, and a third input that receives a second delayed clock signal that is high at least when the first delayed clock signal rises high.

摘要： A dynamic phase alignment circuit includes a phase generator circuit having delay-locked loop circuits that generate periodic output signals. Each of the delay-locked loop circuits generates one of the periodic output signals in response to at least two periodic input signals. A multiplexer circuit selects a selected periodic signal from among the periodic input signals and the periodic output signals based on select signals. A phase detection circuit compares a phase of the selected periodic signal to a data signal to generate a phase detection signal. A control logic circuit generates the select signals. The control logic circuit adjusts the select signals based on changes in the phase detection signal to cause the multiplexer circuit to adjust the phase of the selected periodic signal.

摘要： An output buffer having one or more of the following advantages: (1) faster slew rate, (2) reduced switching noise during signal transitions, and (3) improved switching time. The output buffer includes a pair of output transistors. At least one of the output transistors is designed with dynamically adjustable beta that allows for robust control of the output buffer operating characteristics. The beta can be adjusted by changing the size of the output transistor. Transistor size can be changed, in turn, by enabling and disabling additional output transistor(s).

摘要： A sense amplifier for detecting a logic state of a memory cell includes a voltage amplifier, a current mirror, and a feedback circuit. The voltage amplifier couples to the memory cell and the current mirror. The feedback circuit couples to the current mirror and an input of the sense amplifier. The feedback circuit can be implemented with a transistor, a switch, a transmission gate, or the like. The feedback circuit is selectively enabled to quickly charge or discharge the voltage at the input of the sense amplifier to a trip voltage of the sense amplifier. Whether charging or discharging is performed is dependent on the voltage then existing at the input node. The amount of charging and discharging current can also be based on other circuit considerations, such as the required charge time, and so on. When the voltage at the input reaches a predetermined voltage range, the feedback circuit is disabled.

摘要： Circuits may provide series on-chip termination impedance to one or more input/output pins. In one embodiment, two off-chip reference resistors in combination with internal calibration circuitry are used to control termination transistors coupled to several input/output (I/O) pins. The termination transistors behave as programmably adjustable termination resistors that match the impedance of external resistors. By using only a small number of reference resistors (e.g., 2 resistors) for a large number of I/O pins, the present invention eliminates the external components that would otherwise be needed to provide resistance termination. The effective series termination resistance may be programmed, enabling the termination resistance to meet different I/O standards. Further, the resistance termination techniques of the present invention are not sensitive to process, voltage supply, and temperature (PVT) variations.
