Publication number: 20110058812Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to optical multiprocessing buses. In one embodiment, an optical broadcast bus includes a repeater, a fan-in bus optically coupled to a number of nodes and the repeater, and a fan-out bus optically coupled to the nodes and the repeater.

Patent number: 7340356Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to methods for determining the resistance state of nanowire-crossbar junctions, and can also be used to determine the resistance state of sub-microscale crossbar junctions. A pair of wires interconnected through the crossbar junction is biased to determine a first signal for the crossbar junction. The pair of wires interconnected through the crossbar junction is then biased again to increase the resistance of the crossbar junction. The pair of wires interconnected through the crossbar junction is then biased again to determine a second signal for the crossbar junction. The first signal is compared to the second signal to determine the resistance state of the crossbar junction.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2004Date of Patent: March 4, 2008Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventor: Joseph Straznicky

Patent number: 5513021Abstract: A novel apparatus for optically interconnecting integrated circuits that reduces optical path alignment difficulties and enhances signal quality. The present invention employs one or more holographic optical elements adapted for directing one or more modulated beams of light. Because each holographic optical element is individually aligned with a respective photonic device, the present invention is free from registration run off that is associated with large dimension optical substrates employed in previous optical interconnect schemes. Accordingly, optical path alignment between transmitting photonic devices and receiving photonic devices is preserved.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 1995Date of Patent: April 30, 1996Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: Ronald Kaneshiro, Joseph Straznicky

Patent number: 4258273Abstract: A universal register which consists of a plurality of identical emitter coupled logic (ECL) bit slices and auxiliary ECL gates adapted for fabrication on a single large scale integration (LSI) chip. Each bit slice is comprised of a master-slave flip-flop (a master latch circuit and a slave latch circuit) and an output control network which is driven by the flip-flop. Each of the latch circuits and the output control network comprises a single stage (unit propagation delay), two decision level cascode ECL circuit. The output control network selectively supplies either the Q or the Q output signal from the flip-flop or a logic zero signal to the network's output terminal (designated P).Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 1978Date of Patent: March 24, 1981Assignee: Hughes Aircraft CompanyInventors: Joseph Straznicky, Alexander A.
