Patents by Inventor Ho Gia Phan

Ho Gia Phan has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 6285580
    Abstract: A single event upset hardened memory cell to be utilized in static random access memories is disclosed. The single event upset hardened memory cell includes a first set of cross-coupled transistors, a second set of cross-coupled transistors, and a set of isolation transistors. The set of isolation transistors is coupled to the first set of cross-coupled transistors such that two inversion paths are formed between the cross-coupled transistors and the isolation transistors.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 17, 1999
    Date of Patent: September 4, 2001
    Assignees: BAE Systems Information, Electronic Systems Integration, Inc.

  • Patent number: 6282140
    Abstract: A multiplexor having a single event upset (SEU) hardened data keeper circuit is disclosed. The multiplexor includes a precharge transistor, an isolation transistor, an invertor, and an SEU immune storage cell. Both the gate of the precharge transistor and the gate of the isolation transistor are connected to a clock signal. The SEU immune storage cell has a first access node and a second access node. The first access node is complementary to the second access node. The first access node is connected to the precharge transistor and the second access node is connected to the isolation transistor. The invertor is coupled between the precharge transistor and the isolation transistor.
