  • Publication number: 20240126692
    Abstract: Memory devices and systems with post-packaging master die selection, and associated methods, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a memory device includes a plurality of memory dies. Each memory die of the plurality includes a command/address decoder. The command/address decoders are configured to receive command and address signals from external contacts of the memory device. The command/address decoders are also configured, when enabled, to decode the command and address signals and transmit the decoded command and address signals to every other memory die of the plurality. Each memory die further includes circuitry configured to enable, or disable, or both individual command/address decoders of the plurality of memory dies. In some embodiments, the circuitry can enable a command/address decoder of a memory die of the plurality after the plurality of memory dies are packaged into a memory device.

  • Patent number: 5161014
    Abstract: A television signal processing apparatus includes at least one neural network for processing a signal representing an image. The neural network includes a plurality of perceptrons each of which includes circuitry for weighting a plurality of delayed representations of said signal, circuitry for providing sums of weighted signals provided by said weighting circuitry, and circuitry for processing said sums with a sigmoidal transfer function. The neural network also includes circuitry for combining output signals provided by ones of said perceptrons for providing a processed signal.
