Patents by Inventor Hui Hui Ngu

Hui Hui Ngu 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: 10771063
    Abstract: An integrated circuit device with a single via layer, in which the via layer includes selectable via sites and/or jumpers. The selectable via sites and/or placement of jumpers may be used to configure and interconnect components and circuitry between distinct layers of multilayer circuits. In some implementations, selectively enabling via sites, such as by filling via opening and/or using jumpers, may form a deserializer circuit with a first via configuration or a first-in first-out (FIFO) circuit with a second via configuration.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9704874
    Abstract: A bitline structure for use in a memory device may be connected to a plurality of bit memory cells. The bitline may be segmented into segments connected to one-third of the plurality of bit memory cells and two-thirds of the bit memory cells, respectively. The segments may be electrically coupled to each other to provide an overall bitline output.

  • Patent number: 8040739
    Abstract: A configurable memory system may be able to support at least three different write policies, namely, no-read-on-write, read-before-write, and read-after-write. Such a system may include configurable write signal timing, configurable read signal timing, and/or configurable wordline enable signal timing. Static and/or dynamic configuration of the system may be used.

  • Patent number: RE46474
    Abstract: A memory system may provide for a successful write of a multi-port memory cell (e.g., dual-port 2WR SRAM cell) when it is simultaneously accessed by more than one port. This multi-port memory cell may include at least two independent accesses to the memory cell, where each access may be controlled by an independent wordline signal. Each port may have an independent pair of bitlines. Multiple write circuitry (e.g., double write circuitry) may enable the write driver to drive the input data to more than one pair of bitlines simultaneously.
