Common Logic (CL) is a framework for a family of logic languages, based on first-order logic, intended to facilitate the exchange and transmission of knowledge in computer-based systems. The CL definition permits and encourages the development of a variety of different syntactic forms, called dialects. A dialect may use any desired syntax, but it must be possible to demonstrate precisely how the concrete syntax of a dialect conforms to the abstract CL semantics, which are based on a model theoretic interpretation. Each dialect may be then treated as a formal language. Once syntactic conformance is established, a dialect gets the CL semantics for free, as they are specified relative to the abstract syntax only, and hence are inherited by any conformant dialect. In addition, all CL dialects are equivalent (i.e., can be mechanically translated to each other), although some may be more expressive than others.

SRAM cell with common bit line and source line standby voltage

InactiveUS8503221B1Maximize read-noise-marginMaintain securityDigital storagePower inverterBit line
A high threshold five transistor SRAM bit cell with cross-coupled inverters has a single BIT line, a common logic 1 supply voltage, and two logic 0 virtual ground source voltages. The BIT line is coupled to the bit cell by a pass transistor. When BIT line and virtual ground lines are not otherwise being used, they are connected to a common standby voltage that substantially lowers bit cell standby leakage. Writing is performed by driving a data signal through the pass transistor and is facilitated by creating a voltage differential on the virtual ground lines. Reading is also performed through the pass transistor wherein the BIT line is initially at the standby voltage, and is then driven lower or higher depending upon the data value stored in the bit cell.

The concept of applying fencing logic to Built-In Self Test (BIST) hardware structures for the purpose of segregating defective circuitry and utilizing the remaining good circuitry is a well known practice in the chip design industry. Described herein is a method for verifying that any particular implementation of partial fencing logic actually provides the desired behavior of blocking down-stream impact of all signals from fenced interfaces, and also ensuring that the partial fencing does not inadvertently preclude any common logic from being fully tested.

Common scalable queuing and dequeuing architecture and method relative to network switch data rate

A network switch arrangement and method for providing a common architecture for queuing and dequeuing of data frames as they are transferred from a switch port to an external memory and similarly retrieved from the external memory to the switch port, irrespective of the particular data rate of the port. Logic controlling the actual data path is partitioned from logic responding to port data rate information by providing a "handshaking" communication arrangement between the two logics independent of the data rate. Hence, scalability of the data path over a wide range of data rates may be achieved while maintaining a single, common logic architecture.

System and method for coordinating control settings for hardware-automated I/O processors

A system and method for coordinating control setting with respect to an automated input / output (I / O) processor. A state machine having a transition algorithm can be configured in association with a storage controller in order to permit multiple entities to safely transmit an I / O request to an I / O device. Specific combinations of control bits associated with a fast path engine can be determined by identifying different modes with respect to the behavior of the fast path engine. Each mode can be assigned as a state with respect to the state machine. An I / O path exception and error condition that can cause transitions between the states can be determined and the transitions can be assigned from one state to another state. A generic logic template can then be configured to govern the transitions with respect to the state machine. The logic can be executed when an event occurs in order to trigger multiple state transition and / or modifications with respect to the hardware control bits of the fast path engine.

Logic circuit whose power switch is quickly turned on and off

The present invention is to provide a logic circuit which assures short-circuit current reduction by using a gate which uniquely fixes the level of each node and also reduces leakage current so that the power is turned on and off quickly. Logic gates of the subject logic circuit are divided into first-type logic gate and second-type logic gates. The first-type logic gate outputs high potential under the specific status and the second-type logic gate outputs low potential under the specific status. Under the state that the high potential is supplied to the first-type logic gates and the low potential is supplied to the second-type logic gates, the power switch MOS is turned on. Further, in case of the adder, the specific status is equal to selecting a constant as an input of the adder. For general logic circuit, specific flip-flops are introduced to implement this specific status.

Rapidly reconfigurable all-optical universal logic gate

A new reconfigurable cascadable all-optical on-chip device is presented. The gate operates by combining the Vernier effect with a novel effect, the gain-index lever, to help shift the dominant lasing mode from a mode where the laser light is output at one facet to a mode where it is output at the other facet. Since the laser remains above threshold, the speed of the gate for logic operations as well as for reprogramming the function of the gate is primarily limited to the small signal optical modulation speed of the laser, which can be on the order of up to about tens of GHz. The gate can be rapidly and repeatedly reprogrammed to perform any of the basic digital logic operations by using an appropriate analog optical or electrical signal at the gate selection port. Other all-optical functionality includes wavelength conversion, signal duplication, threshold switching, analog to digital conversion, digital to analog conversion, signal routing, and environment sensing. Since each gate can perform different operations, the functionality of such a cascaded circuit grows exponentially.

Apparatus and method for performing static timing analysis of an integrated circuit design

An apparatus and method perform static timing analysis on an integrated circuit design. Certain pessimistic assumptions regarding slack when data launch and clock test signals are on opposite edges and derived from common logic blocks are improved by allowing the designer to identify common logic blocks, to compute the difference between maximum and minimum delays in the common logic blocks, and to improve the slack using this computed difference and a correction factor, thereby accounting for excessive pessimism in the static timing analysis that results from the common logic blocks. The apparatus and method give credit for slack in common blocks automatically, thereby allowing a large number of pessimistic slack values to be automatically corrected and reducing the workload of an integrated circuit designer in addressing the timing problems in an integrated circuit design.

Optimization design method based on FPGA finite field multipier

This invention discloses a optimum design method for the finite field multiplier on the base of FPGA. This invention defines those logic functions which can be realized with a single 4-LUT into 7 styles, and it will follow some steps to realize the optimization for the finite field multiplier. Firstly, it figures out the matrix form of the finite field multiplier according to the generator polynomial and initialize the integration of middle variables. Secondly, it will repeatedly search for the common logic functions in the elements in the Matrix Z, bringing in a new middle variable, and it will use this new middle variable to represent the output variable of those logic functions, modifying the Matrix Z. Finally, it will find out preferred logic functions that can be realized by a single 4-LUT. Then those logic functions will be decomposed into a series of logic functions that can be realized by a single 4-LUT, and Matrix Z and the integration of middle variables will be modified. After all above, we finally get a optimized finite field multiplier on the base of FPGA. The advantages are short key route and time delay.
