    • A serial configuration memory device comprises an architecture wherein the reading out of data and the outputting of the bitstream are performed in pipeline fashion. As a result, the device is capable of outputting a bitstream based solely on the frequency of an externally provided clock, and is not limited by the slower operating speed of the sense amp circuitry. A caching scheme is provided which allows the first byte to be pre-loaded during a reset cycle so that the device can immediately begin outputting the bitstream as soon as the reset cycle completes. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the bitstream consists of serially accessed memory locations starting from memory location zero. In one variation, the bitstream can begin from a memory location other than memory location zero.

    • A high voltage circuit includes a first switching device for supplying one of a high voltage (V.sub.pp) and a low voltage (V.sub.cc) to a controlled path that includes a series connection of a control p-channel transistor and a protection p-channel transistor. A high voltage detector is utilized to determine whether V.sub.pp or V.sub.cc is applied to the controlled path. The high voltage detector also establishes a protecting condition for the protection p-channel transistor during V.sub.pp operation. On the other hand, the detector establishes a non-protecting condition during V.sub.cc operation, thereby rendering the protecting p-channel transistor transparent to circuit performance. A signal input switches the control p-channel transistor between on and off states. When the control transistor is in an off state and the protection transistor is in a protecting condition, the voltage drop along the controlled path will cause the protection transistor to turn off, so as to limit the voltage across the control transistor. A second controlled path is preferably in series connection with the first controlled path. The second controlled path includes n-channel transistors, with one of the transistors fixed at V.sub.cc in order to guard against gate-aided junction breakdown of the other transistor. In this embodiment, the high voltage circuit is preferably an inverter circuit.
    • 高压电路包括用于将高电压(Vpp)和低电压(Vcc)中的一个提供给包括控制p沟道晶体管和保护p沟道晶体管的串联连接的受控路径的第一开关器件。 利用高电压检测器来确定是否将Vpp或Vcc应用于受控路径。 高电压检测器还在Vpp操作期间为保护p沟道晶体管建立了保护条件。 另一方面,检测器在Vcc操作期间建立非保护状态,从而使得保护p沟道晶体管对电路性能是透明的。 信号输入在控制p沟道晶体管的导通和截止状态之间切换。 当控制晶体管处于断开状态并且保护晶体管处于保护状态时,沿受控路径的电压降将导致保护晶体管截止,从而限制控制晶体管两端的电压。 第二受控路径优选地与第一受控路径串联连接。 第二受控路径包括n沟道晶体管,其中一个晶体管固定在Vcc,以防止另一个晶体管的栅极辅助结击穿。 在本实施例中,高压电路优选为逆变器电路。

    • A protection circuit includes a first controlled path for discharging negative ESD pulses introduced at a signal node. The first controlled path is from the signal node to V.sub.cc via the source and drain electrodes of a first transistor. The gate of the transistor is at a soft ground by connection of the gate through a resistor and an inverter to a fixed voltage supply potential (V.sub.cc). A second controlled path discharges positive ESD pulses via source and drain regions of serially connected second and third transistors to ground. The second transistor has a gate tied at V.sub.cc by means of a resistor and inverter to ground. The third transistor is at soft ground by means of a resistor and inverter to V.sub.cc. The third transistor is turned on by a positive voltage exceeding the threshold voltage of the third transistor, but the second transistor prevents damage to the third transistor by limiting the voltage applied to the third transistor. The protection circuit may include a third controlled path through a fourth transistor, if low voltage circuitry is tied to the signal node. The fourth transistor includes a gate that is tied high by connection of the gate to ground via a transistor and inverter.

    • A method is provided for testing a non-programmable non-volatile memory which does not require the writing or erasing of any cells and permits the testing of all normal memory cells. Testing occurs from the device I/O pins and is useful in cases where EPROM memory cells have been bulk erased and placed within an ultraviolet-opaque package. The non-volatile memory is of the type having memory banks of rows and columns. Each bank must have address decoders and means for changing addresses between banks. A separate auxiliary cell or row of cells in a state different from the non-programmed state is provided. An address is supplied for the auxiliary cells and then for the normal cells and the interval between addressing the normal cells and the appearance of an output signal is measured and compared with a predetermined fixed limit. If the limit is exceeded, the address is identified as that of a weak cell whose speed does not meet product specifications. In suitably equipped memories, the addresses of weak cells can be recorded and redundant cell groups substituted as replacements.

    • A read circuit for a semiconductor memory that includes a pass transistor between the output of a first sense amplifier reading the memory and a latch. The pass transistor blocks transmission of the sense amplifier's output to the latch whenever a noise glitch producing condition is sensed. A second sense amplifier connected through the same conductive line to the memory cell array as the first sense amplifier has a faster response and lower current threshold in order to detect the glitch producing condition. A pulse generator receives the output of the second sense amplifier and provides a control signal pulse of predetermined duration following detection of the glitch producing condition by the second sense amplifier. The pulse is received by a control gate of the pass transistor, turning the transistor off during the duration of the pulse.

    • A driver circuit for use in an array of picture elements in a liquid crystal display is capable of displaying one set of image data while receiving a second set of image data. A first select switch transistor responsive to a first select signal controls the coupling of a first image to a first storage capacitor. A second select switch transistor responsive to a second select signal controls the coupling of a second image to a second storage capacitor. The first storage capacitor may be selectively coupled to an output node by means of a first enable switch transistor responsive to a first enable signal. The second storage capacitor may be selectively coupled to the same output node by means of a second enable switch transistor responsive to a second enable signal. By proper manipulation of the switch transistors, one storage capacitor may be coupled to the output node while the other storage capacitor is isolated from the output node and receiving new image data.
