  • Publication number: 20230025219
    Abstract: In an anti-fuse memory reading circuit with controllable reading time, a reading time control circuit generates a control signal corresponding to reading time. Based on a clock signal, a programmable reading pulse generation circuit generates a reading pulse with a pulse width corresponding to the control signal. Based on the reading pulse and the control signal, the reading amplification circuit selects a pull-up current source corresponding to the reading time, pulls up a voltage on a bit line (BL) of an anti-fuse memory cell, reads data stored in the anti-fuse memory cell starting from a rising edge of the reading pulse, and latches the read data at a falling edge of the reading pulse. The anti-fuse memory reading circuit can generate a reading pulse with a corresponding pulse width and a pull-up current source with a corresponding size based on the required reading time.

  • Publication number: 20220330381
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry coupled to memory. To configure the UE for New Radio (NR) communications above a 52.6 GHz carrier frequency, the processing circuitry is to decode radio resource control (RRC) signaling to obtain a cyclic shift value in time domain. The cyclic shift value is associated with a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) antenna port (AP) of a plurality of available DM-RS APs. A single carrier based waveform DM-RS sequence corresponding to the DM-RS AP is generated using a base sequence and the cyclic shift value. The single carrier based waveform DM-RS sequence is encoded with uplink data for transmission to a base station using a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) using a carrier above the 52.6 GHz carrier frequency.
