  • Patent number: 5815009
    Abstract: A process tolerant delay circuit includes a plurality of inverters that receive an input signal and provide an output signal related to the input signal but including a propagation delay of the plurality of inverters. At least one inverter comprises FETs of minimum channel lengths dependent upon a fabrication process by which the circuit was made. Accordingly, the plurality of inverters have a propagation delay dependent upon the fabrication process. A delay compensation device receives the output signal of the inverters and provides a compensated output signal related to the received signal but including a variable delay established in accordance with a control signal. A process sense stack provides the control signal only during a transition of the input signal, and with a value dependent upon a channel length of a FET device thereof.

  • Patent number: 5802003
    Abstract: A system is provided for providing functional, initialization and reset access to a plurality of memory cells of a memory array, using a single cell write port and a single cell read port. In addition to functional address and data buses, initialization address and data buses are provided. The invention is disclosed in association with a field-programmable memory array having multiple sub-arrays therein. The address units for each sub-array are provided to programmably provide address information to the wordlines of each sub-array from an initialization address bus or a functional address bus. Similarly, readhead and writehead circuits within each sub-array are also programmable to propagate data between initialization or functional data buses and the memory cells of the sub-array. The address units, readheads, and writeheads are all responsive to a dominant reset signal to reset the associated cells.
