摘要： Delay associated with each of two signals along respective transmission paths is accurately measured using a delay measurement circuit that is fabricated in situ on the actual device where the circuitry for propagating the two signals is fabricated. Thus, the measured delay associated with each of the two signals is subject to the same fabrication-dependent attributes that affect the actual circuitry through which the two signals will be propagated during operation of the device. The skew between the two signals is quantified as the difference in the measured delays. Coarse and fine delay modules are defined within the transmission path of each of the two signals. Based on the measured skew between the two signals, the coarse and fine delay modules are appropriately set to compensate for the skew. The appropriately settings for the coarse and fine delay modules can be stored in non-volatile memory elements.

摘要： A programmable memory interface circuit includes a programmable DLL delay chain, a phase offset control circuit and a programmable DQS delay chain. The DLL delay chain uses a set of serially connected delay cells, a programmable switch, a phase detector and a digital counter to generate a coarse phase shift control setting. The coarse phase shift control setting is then used to pre-compute a static residual phase shift control setting or generate a dynamic residual phase shift control setting, one of which is chosen by the phase offset control circuit to be added to or subtracted from the coarse phase shift control setting to generate a fine phase shift control setting. The coarse and fine phase shift control settings work in concert to generate a phase-delayed DQS signal that is center-aligned to its associated DQ signals.

摘要： A feedback loop circuit includes a phase detector and delay circuits. The phase detector generates an output signal based on a delayed periodic signal. The delay circuits are coupled in a delay chain that delays the delayed periodic signal. Each of the delay circuits comprises variable delay blocks and fixed delay blocks that are coupled to form at least two delay paths for an input signal through the delay circuit to generate a delayed output signal. Delays of the variable delay blocks in the delay circuits vary based on the output signal of the phase detector. Each of the delay circuits reroutes the input signal through a different one of the delay paths to generate the delayed output signal based on the output signal of the phase detector during operation of the feedback loop circuit. Each of the variable delay blocks and the fixed delay blocks is inverting.

摘要： Circuits, methods, and apparatus for transferring data from a device's input clock domain to a core clock domain. One example achieves this by using a retiming element between input and core circuits. The retiming element is calibrated by incrementally sweeping a delay and receiving data at each increment. Minimum and maximum delays where data is received without errors are averaged. This average can then be used to adjust the timing of a circuit element inserted in an input path between an input register clocked by an input strobe signal and an output register clocked by a core clock signal. In one example, an input signal may be delayed by an amount corresponding to the delay setting. In other examples, each input signal is registered using an intermediate register between the input register and the output register, where a clock signal is delayed by an amount corresponding to the delay setting.

摘要： A method and apparatus for updating the control signal received by a delay chain in a DDR application. A register is used to regulate the control signal to the delay chain. The register only updates the signal at the delay chain when a signal is not passing through the delay chain. Additionally, the present invention is directed to a delay circuit that uses a plurality of PMOS and NMOS transistors connected in parallel to each other and to an inverter that provides the desired delay. The delay provided is achieved by sequentially turning off/on a series of the NMOS/PMOS transistor pairs.

摘要： A programmable I/O element for an I/O terminal of a logic array is suitable for operating according to high speed I/O modes such as double data rate and zero bus turnaround. The I/O element may include an input block with two registers for registering input signals from the terminal upon alternate clock edges. In addition or alternatively, it may include an output block with two registers that separately register output signals from the array on the same clock edge and a multiplexer that alternately outputs those signals. For bidirectional terminals, the multiplexer output is connectable to the I/O terminal via an output buffer, and an output enable block provides an enable signal to a gating input of the output buffer. Programmable delays may be included in the input, output, and output enable paths, in particular to provide a slower turn-on time than turn-off time for the output buffer.

摘要： Circuits and methods are described for producing a DLL clock signal with adjustable phase shift using a processed control signal. In one embodiment of the invention, a DLL circuit is provided that includes a main and smaller variable delay circuits, a phase detector and an up down counter that provides a main control signal to adjust the delay by the main variable delay circuit. When the DLL circuit is locked, an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) produces a processed control signal based on the main control signal, an ALU control signal and an offset control signal, and the processed control signal is provided to the smaller variable delay circuit. By adjusting the ALU control and offset control signals, the phase shift introduced on the DLL control signal by the smaller variable delay circuit can be adjusted. In another embodiment of the invention, a second up down counter is used in place of an ALU for providing a dynamically adjustable phase shift in accordance with the principles of the present invention.
