  • Patent number: 8825930
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for serializing a video signal and providing non-packet-based serialized video information to a physical Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface and, in certain examples, receiving the non-packet-based serialized video information from the physical USB interface, deserializing the received non-packet-based serialized video information, and providing a high definition output signal to a video port (e.g., an HD video port, such as HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.) using the deserialized video information.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8750531
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for active noise cancellation. One example system includes a digital ANC circuit configured to receive first audio information from a first microphone and to produce an a digital anti-noise signal configured to attenuate noise sensed by the first microphone; an analog ANC circuit configured to receive second audio information from a second microphone and to produce an analog anti-noise signal configured to attenuate noise sensed by the second microphone; and wherein the system is configured to receive an intended audio signal and to provide an output signal for a speaker using the intended audio signal, the analog anti-noise signal, and the digital anti-noise signal.

  • Patent number: 8536924
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for an integrated circuit, high-impedance network are provided. In an example, the network can include an anti-parallel diode pair coupled between first and second nodes. The anti-parallel diode pair can include a first diode including a P+/NWELL junction and a second diode including N+/PWELL junction. In an example, the first diode and the second diode can include a common substrate.

  • Patent number: 7355467
    Abstract: Improvements to the physical layer are provided, for example a test circuit that does not introduce further skew into critical clock signals. A boundary scan test circuit is also provided used to isolate an integrated circuit for applying test vectors or circuit brand connections to test the integrity thereof. A bias voltage generator for a voltage controlled delay line (VCDL) is also provided.

  • Patent number: 5404560
    Abstract: A central processing unit (CPU) 10 comprises an external control memory for storing microinstructions which correspond to macroinstructions read from a system memory. The microinstructions are 56 bits in length and are read in 28-bit segments. CPU 10 also comprises an internal memory management unit (MMU) 18 which comprises a plurality of address translation entry (ATE) registers four of which are permanent and sixteen of which are temporary in that the storage of a new translation entry occurs in a least recently used temporary translation entry register. CPU 10 also comprises a plurality of status register bits, some of which are settable only by predefined microinstructions. All of the status register bits are branchable. CPU 10 further comprises a condition code register the state of which may be determined by input signal pins. CPU 10 also comprises address generation logic which may generate a 24, 31 or 32 bit address upon a 32-bit address bus.
