  • Patent number: 9495503
    Abstract: Provided are methods and apparatus for enabling selective push processing during design and fabrication of an integrated circuit to improve performance of selected circuits of the integrated circuit. An exemplary method includes identifying a critical portion of an integrated circuit layout that defines a functional element having a critical operating frequency requirement and designing a subcircuit in the critical portion to enable performing a speed push process to increase performance of the subcircuit. The method can also include identifying at least one of a power supply node, a clock supply node, and an interface node at a boundary between the critical portion and a portion of the integrated circuit that is outside of the critical portion. The critical portion can be designed with a power domain that is independent of the portion of the integrated circuit that is outside of the critical portion.

  • Patent number: 9413344
    Abstract: Automatic calibration circuits for operational calibration of critical-path time delays in adaptive clock distribution systems, and related methods and systems, are disclosed. The adaptive clock distribution system includes a tunable-length delay circuit to delay distribution of a clock signal provided to a clocked circuit, to prevent timing margin degradation of the clocked circuit after a voltage droop occurs in a power supply supplying power to the clocked circuit. The adaptive clock distribution system also includes a dynamic variation monitor to reduce frequency of the delayed clock signal provided to the clocked circuit in response to the voltage droop in the power supply, so that the clocked circuit is not clocked beyond its performance limits during a voltage droop. An automatic calibration circuit is provided in the adaptive clock distribution system to calibrate the dynamic variation monitor during operation based on operational conditions and environmental conditions of the clocked circuit.

  • Patent number: 9196330
    Abstract: Systems and methods for adaptively mimicking wordline decoding logic for multi-voltage domain memory are disclosed. In one embodiment, the multi-voltage domain memory includes a memory array implemented in a high voltage domain and a multi-voltage domain control circuit. The multi-voltage domain control circuit includes multi-voltage domain decoding logic that generates a wordline for the memory array and a multi-voltage domain mimic logic that mimics the multi-voltage domain decoding logic to generate a dummy wordline. In one embodiment, the dummy wordline is utilized to trigger an ending edge (e.g., a falling edge) of the wordline once the wordline is asserted. In addition or alternatively, the dummy wordline is utilized to generate one or more control signals for the memory array such as, for example, a pre-charge control signal and/or a sense amplifier enable signal.
