Patent number: 10931266Abstract: A flip-flop element is configured to gate the clock inversions within a master-slave flip-flop element. The flip-flop element reduces the number of circuit elements within the flip-flop element by collapsing elements with common functionality into a single circuit element. Further, by making the actions of judiciously selected circuit elements conditional upon the state of the input data, the flip-flop element circuit reduces the number of internal transitions. In this manner, by reducing the number of circuit elements as well as the number of transitions, the flip-flop element achieves substantial reduction in overall system power consumption, resulting in a more efficient system.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2014Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: NVIDIA CorporationInventors: Ilyas Elkin, Ge Yang, Xi Zhang, Jiani Yu

Patent number: 10181842Abstract: A flip-flop element is configured to include FinFET technology transistors with a mix of threshold voltage levels. The data input path includes FinFET transistors configured with high voltage thresholds (HVT). The clock input path includes transistors configured with standard voltage thresholds (SVT). By including FinFET transistors with SVT thresholds in the clock signal path, the Miller capacitance of the clock signal path is reduced relative to HVT FinFET transistors, leading to lower rise time and correspondingly lower hold time. By including HVT threshold devices in the data input path, the flip-flop element attains high speed and low power operation. By including SVT threshold devices in the clock signal path, the flip-flop element achieves faster switching times in the clock signal path.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2015Date of Patent: January 15, 2019Assignee: NVIDIA CORPORATIONInventors: Ge Yang, Xi Zhang, Jiani Yu, Lingfei Deng, Hwong-Kwo Lin

Publication number: 20160336054Abstract: A subsystem configured to select the power supply to a static random access memory cell compares the level of a dedicated memory supply voltage to the primary system supply voltage. The subsystem then switches the primary system supply to the SRAM cell when the system voltage is higher than the memory supply voltage with some margin. When the system voltage is lower than the memory supply voltage, with margin, the subsystem switches the memory supply to the SRAM cell. When the system voltage is comparable to the memory supply, the subsystem switches the system voltage to the SRAM cell if performance is a prioritized consideration, but switches the memory supply to the SRAM cell if power reduction is a prioritized consideration. In this manner, the system achieves optimum performance without incurring steady state power losses and avoids timing issues in accessing memory.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2015Publication date: November 17, 2016Inventors: Stephen FELIX, Hwong-Kwo LIN, Spencer GOLD, Jing GUO, Andreas GOTTERBA, Jason GOLBUS, Karthik NATARAJAN, Jun YANG, Zhenye JIANG, Ge YANG, Lei WANG, Yong LI, Hua CHEN, Haiyan GONG, Beibei REN, Eric VOELKEL
