Patent number: 8374016Abstract: An apparatus includes a bit cell of a programmable memory circuit. The bit cell includes a programmable device. The bit cell includes a first device having a first type. The first device is configured to conduct a first current between a first node and a second node in response to a first value of a signal on the word line and a signal on a bit line. The programmable device is configured to be programmed in response to a first level of the first current. The bit cell includes a circuit coupled to the second node. The circuit is configured to reduce a leakage current through the first device in response to a second value of the signal on the word line and based on a feedback signal. In at least one embodiment of the apparatus, the feedback signal is based on a signal on the bit line.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2011Date of Patent: February 12, 2013Assignee: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventor: Jeffrey A. Correll

Publication number: 20080034079Abstract: Configuring wires/icons in a diagram. The diagram may be an executable diagram such as a graphical program or a system diagram. The diagram may include a plurality of icons that are connected by wires, and the icons may visually represent functionality of the diagram. The diagram may be executable to perform the functionality. Displaying the diagram may include displaying a first wire in the diagram, where the first wire connects a first icon and a second icon. Data transfer functionality may be specified for the first wire and/or the first or second icon in the diagram. The data transfer functionality may be visually indicated in the diagram, e.g., by appearances of the first icon, the second icon, the first wire, and/or icons displayed proximate to these components of the diagram.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2007Publication date: February 7, 2008Inventors: Jeffrey Kodosky, Jeffrey Correll, David Fuller, Timothy Hayles, John Breyer, Jacob Kornerup

Publication number: 20070294341Abstract: System and method for receiving purchase information for a client system, e.g., a measurement system. A configuration diagram visually representing a current configuration of the client system is displayed. Multiple product icons are displayed representing products (hardware and/or programs) available for use in the client system. User input is received graphically associating at least one first product icon with the configuration diagram, where the first product icon represents a first product, and the user input indicates a desire to purchase the first product. An updated configuration diagram is displayed representing the configuration of the client system after receiving the user input, including the first product icon. Pricing information for the first product is displayed in response to receiving the user input. User input initiating purchase of the first product may be received in response to displaying the pricing information, and the product may be provided to the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 27, 2007Publication date: December 20, 2007Inventors: Mohammed Shah, David Fuller, Jeffrey Correll, Brian Sierer

Patent number: 6380724Abstract: A method and circuitry for an undisturbed scannable state element. A scannable state element, implemented in a scan chain for testing an integrated circuit, includes both a dual-ported flop circuit and a shadow flop circuit. The dual-ported flop circuit includes both a master cell and a slave cell, while the shadow flop includes only a master cell, and utilizes the slave cell of the dual-ported flop. During scan shifting, scan data is shifted through the shadow flop and the slave cell of the dual-ported flop, bypassing the master cell. Since the data output of the dual-ported flop originates in the master cell, the state of the data in the dual-ported flop is not disturbed by the scan. Scan data may also be latched into the master cell from the scan chain or from the master cell into the scan chain through a scan data output in the slave cell.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 1999Date of Patent: April 30, 2002Assignee: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: Eric W. Mahurin, Robert C. Burd, Jeffrey A. Correll
