    摘要: A device for the regeneration of a clock signal from an external serial bus includes a ring oscillator and counter. The ring oscillator provides n phases of a clock signal. Of these n phases, one phase is used as a reference and is applied to the counter. It is thus possible to count the number of entire reference clock signal periods between a first pulse and a second pulse received from the bus. In reading the state of the phases in the oscillator upon reception of the second pulse, a determination is made for a current phase corresponding to the phase delay between the reference clock signal and the second pulse of the bus. By using a regeneration device that also includes a ring oscillator and a counter, it is possible to regenerate the clock signal of the bus with high precision.

    摘要: A filter circuit comprising a phase advance circuit acting as a high pass filter, a phase retard circuit acting as a low pass filter, and an amplifier connected in series between an input and an output. A positive feedback loop is provided between the input and the output. The electrical characteristics of the phase advance and phase retard circuits are such that interaction between the phase advance and phase retard circuits is substantially prevented. This may be achieved by providing the phase advance and phase retard circuits with simple output buffers or providing internal closed loop negative feedback paths to provide low output impedances. The phase advance and phase retard circuits may comprise multipliers configured to compensate for variations in the values of resistive and capacitive components of the filter circuits.

    摘要: A method and circuit which allow for pre-emphasis of a high frequency on-chip signal have been developed. The circuit is configured to receive a digital signal from an on-chip source as input for a predriver stage. The method and circuit may use a dual or single predriver stage to equalize the signal when a transition in the value of the digital signal is detected. The single predriver stage circuit equalizes the signal with decreased power and area requirements for greater efficiency.

    摘要: A clock monitor circuit includes a first and second delay and clock signal generating unit for receiving a clock signal and an inverted clock signal, respectively. The first and second delay and clock signal generating units generate a first and second signals, respectively. A logic sum unit logically-sums the first and second signals to generate a stop clock signal. The clock monitor circuit according to the present invention can monitor the presence of a clock signal irrespective of an operation cycle of the clock signal. Further, the synchronous semiconductor memory device utilizing the clock monitor circuit according to the present invention is adapted to consume electric current only when a clock signal is present. That is, the device does not consume electric current when the clock signal is not present thereby reducing unnecessary waste of electric power in the stand-by mode.
