Abstract: A memory card having a memory bus controller is provided which card has a signal processing element preferably a digital signal processor (DSP) thereon, which card is used in a computer system as add-on memory. Also, a method of using such a card in a computer system is provided. The memory bus controller and the signal processing element are programmed to pass all the addresses in the memory on the card and the associated data received from the CPU to the signal processing element where they are stored in memory. The signal processing element is programmed to perform selected operations on the addresses and/data irrespective of whether the signal processing element has control of the system bus. These operations can include keeping track of read/write operations and the locations of these operations. This information can be easily accessed by the computer system and used for memory optimization. The DSP can also “snoop” the memory bus when it is unavailable to the control of the DSP, i.e.

Abstract: In many DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) architectures, a sense amplifier detects and amplifies a small voltage differential between complementary bitline pairs to read from/write to a DRAM memory cell. The access speed of the DRAM is dependent on the speed of the transition, due to this amplification, of the bitline pairs from an equalized, pre-charged voltage level to final (within a given sensing cycle) high and low levels. The transition speed of the bitline pairs can be increased by providing a higher overdrive voltage to the sense amplifier. As DRAM technologies are scaled successively smaller, the overdrive voltage must be controlled to avoid compromising the reliability of the DRAM. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a DRAM circuit which provides a transiently higher overdrive voltage only during sensing. The overdrive is provided by a pre-charged capacitive source utilizing the circuit's natural capacitance.
