  • Method and apparatus for optimizing power in FIFO
    Patent number: 10157649
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a first-in-first-out (FIFO) circuit having a memory block and a logic circuit. The memory block includes an array of memory cells configured to be able to store N data entries in a FIFO order (N is a positive integer). The logic circuit is configured to compare input data with previously input data to detect a number of consecutive identical entries of input data, and suppress an operation of selected memory cells when the number is larger than N.

  • Systems and methods for providing replicated data from memories to processing clients
    Patent number: 9548885
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a network device. A device includes a plurality of packet processing clients. The device further includes a plurality of memories, where a quantity of the memories is greater than a quantity of the packet processing clients, each of the memories storing a replica of data, the packet processing clients being configured to selectively read the control data from any of the memories. An arbiter is configured to select in a first clock cycle for the plurality of packet processing clients a first subset of memories from among the plurality of memories from which to read the control data, and in a second clock cycle, subsequent to the first clock cycle, to select for the plurality of packet processing clients a second subset of memories from among the plurality of memories from which to read the control data.
