摘要： In accordance with at least one embodiment, an improved voltage headroom self-biased receiver is provided. In accordance with at least one embodiment, tail current sources are biased so as to be cross-coupled with respect to each other. In accordance with at least one embodiment, startup control is provided to counter defect-induced current and to ensure the circuit can function properly even with large amounts of defect current. In accordance with at least one embodiment, a positive type (p type) channel metal oxide semiconductor (PMOS) tail current transistor is modulated by a negative type (n type) channel metal oxide semiconductor (NMOS) differential pair virtual negative supply voltage and a NMOS tail current transistor is modulated by a PMOS differential pair virtual positive supply voltage. The amplifier's output common mode is thus self correcting to p type to n type transistor strength differences.

摘要： A conductive line varies in thickness to assist in overcoming RC delays and noise coupling. By varying line thickness, variation in conductor width is avoided if necessary to maintain a specified minimum pitch between conductors while maintaining predetermined desired RC parameters and noise characteristics of the conductive line. Conductor depth variation is achieved by etching a dielectric layer to different thicknesses. A subsequent conductive fill over the dielectric layer and in the differing thicknesses results in a conductive line that varies in thickness. Different conductive line thicknesses available at a particular metal level can additionally be used for semiconductor structures other than a signal or a power supply conductive line, such as a contact, a via or an electrode of a device. The thickness analysis required to determine how interconnect thickness is varied in order to meet a desired design criteria may be automated and provided as a CAD tool.

摘要： A semiconductor (10) has an active device, such as a transistor, with a directly underlying passive device, such as a capacitor (75, 77, 79), that are connected by a via or conductive region (52) and interconnect (68, 99). The via or conductive region (52) contacts a bottom surface of a diffusion or source region (22) of the transistor and contacts a first (75) of the capacitor electrodes. A laterally positioned vertical via (32, 54, 68) and interconnect (99) contacts a second (79) of the capacitor electrodes. A metal interconnect or conductive material (68) may be used as a power plane that saves circuit area by implementing the power plane underneath the transistor rather than adjacent the transistor.

摘要： A capacitive charge pump that can be implemented in such devices as e.g. a phase locked loop (PLL). The charge pump includes at least one capacitor in the charge path and discharge path for limiting the amount of charge provided to or removed from a filter capacitor of a PLL. In one example, a second capacitor may be provided in the charge path or discharge path to reduce the capacitance (if provided in series) or increase the capacitance (if provided in parallel) to adjust the maximum amount of charge transferred to a filter capacitor. In one example, multiple capacitive stages may be implemented in parallel to increase the maximum amount of charge transferred to a filter capacitor. Each stage is enabled after a delayed period of time from when the previous stage was enabled.
