摘要： A circuit device having a transistor-based switch topology that substantially eliminates the possibility of latchup of the device. A series-connected low voltage threshold (LVT) N-channel transistor and a pull-up resistor are coupled across a switching (P-channel) transistor so that an integral body connection is provided for the switching transistor, which connects the body of the switching transistor to a node between the pull-up resistor and source terminal of the LVT transistor. The LVT transistor is connected with its gate and drain terminal connected to the output terminal of the switching transistor. The resistor is connected at its other end to the power supply side terminal of the switching transistor. The addition of these components in the particular configuration allows the body connection of the switching transistor to be automatically switched to the highest potential diffusion node.

摘要： A self-adaptive voltage regulator for a phase-locked loop is disclosed. The phase-locked loop includes a phase detector, a charge pump, a low pass filter, and a voltage control oscillator, wherein the low pass filter inputs a control voltage to a voltage controlled oscillator for generation of an output clock. According to the method and system disclosed herein, the self-adaptive voltage regulator is coupled to an output of the low pass filter for sensing the control voltage during normal operation of the phase-locked loop, and for dynamically adjusting the supply voltage, which is input to the voltage controlled oscillator in response to the control voltage, such that the phase-locked loop maintains the control voltage within a predefined range of a reference voltage.

摘要： A voltage generating system provides a plurality of different voltages for powering a dynamic nonvolatile random access memory (NVRAM) chip. The voltage generating system includes a pair of charge pumps. Each charge pump is coupled to a controller that senses the voltage level at the output of the charge pump and generates an enabling signal when said voltage is at a predetermined value. The signal activates a power down circuit which adjusts the charge pump output to a desired voltage level. A programmable oscillator provides the clocking signals for the controller. The charge pumps and programmable oscillators are periodically deactivated. As a result, the overall power consumption of the chip is reduced.

摘要： A programmable oscillator is provided for use on an integrated circuit chip. The oscillator includes a plurality of inverter delay stages connected in tandem between an input and an output node. A single FET device couples a node common to all of the inverter delay stages to a ground potential. Another FET device controls the input node. When a logic enabling signal is appropriately applied to the FET devices, the oscillator is controlled so that internal nodes of the oscillator float high when it is off and no energy is dissipated. In addition, the amount of delays between the delay stages and the input stage of the load is such that the load supplies the greater ratio of delays. This ensures that the oscillator's frequency of oscillation tracks the switching speed of the load.

摘要： A differential clock signal gating method and system is provided, wherein a clock buffer circuit control path develops a clock gating signal with a timing relationship to a clock signal. The clock gating signal gates a buffer on the clock buffer circuit controlled path in communication with the clock signal responsive to a first clock signal pulse negative half. The buffer provides second and successive clock signal pulses occurring immediately and sequentially after the first clock signal pulse as a buffer clock signal output to a second buffer stage in a second stage clock path, each having the nominal clock amplitude and the nominal clock pulse width of the clock signal without jitter.

摘要： A circuit design, method, and system for tracking VCO calibration without requiring an over-designed divider as in conventional implementation. A filter reset component is added to the inputs of the VCO. A process step is added to the calibration mechanism/process that shorts the filter nodes and thus centers the frequency of the VCO before stepping from one frequency band to the next.

摘要： A low voltage CMOS circuit and method provide output current ability meeting multimode requirements of high voltage off-chip drivers while protecting the CMOS devices from various breakdown mechanisms. The circuit and method utilize intermediate voltages between two power rails and voltage division techniques to limit the voltages to acceptable limits for drain-to-source, gate-to-drain, and gate-to-source of CMOS devices in any chosen technology. The circuit comprises first and second CMOS cascode chains connected between a high voltage power rail, e.g 5 volt and a reference potential power rail, e.g. ground. Each CMOS cascode chain comprises first and second p-type MOS devices in series with first and second n-type MOS devices. An input circuit is coupled to a node at the midpoint of the first CMOS cascode chain. A bias voltage, typically 3.3 volts is connected to the NMOS devices in the first and CMOS cascode chains. A second bias voltage is coupled to the PMOS devices in the first and second CMOS cascode chains. An output is provided from the second CMOS cascode chain to a third CMOS cascode chain for purposes of providing sufficient pullup capability to drive an output circuit comprising a fourth CMOS cascode chain between the high and reference potentials without exceeding the breakdown mechanisms for any MOS device in the CMOS cascode chains.
