摘要: The invention implements a Positive Emitter Coupled Logic (PECL) output using CMOS transistors that approximate the Motorola ECL characteristics into standard PECL termination schemes. By creating a PECL output using a switchable current source the PECL output can be integrated into a Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) structure. The invention allows the user to switch between PECL and LVDS outputs via control logic by enabling the specific circuit elements for each signaling technology. With this invention, the combination of two drivers on one IC device gives system designers the flexibility to use the same circuitry in two separate signaling schemes. Thus, the designers can select to use one output characteristics or the other for their designs.

摘要: Consistent with one example embodiment, communications systems (100), using a serial data transfer bus having a serial data line and a clock line used to implement a communications protocol, incorporate latched service requests. Methods for one or more slave devices to request service from a master device (130) involve detecting a condition that asserts a request for service signal (162), at a common node (150) independent from the serial data transfer bus, to a master device of the bus. The request for service is latched (164), within the slave, such that the request for service remains asserted regardless of a change in the detected condition. The request for service is de-asserted (166) in response to interrogation of the slave, using the serial data transfer bus, by the master device. Devices may be configured as general purpose Input/Output devices, CODEC arrangements, or other slave devices, and may conform to I2C and/or SMBus serial communication specifications.

摘要: A multiport device is configured to recognize each active segment on a bus, and to selectively propagate signals within the device depending upon whether the segment is active. Optimal signal propagation is achieved by invoking the control of the propagation of signals only after a first active-transition on the bus. Initial transitions are propagated unconditionally, to minimize propagation delay, and subsequent signal propagations are conditionally controlled, to avoid latch-up. A latch is associated with each port. The latch is set each time the port is actively driven by a device on that port. The latch is reset when all the devices are in the quiescent state, or when another port remains active after the currently active port becomes inactive. The state of each port's latch controls the propagation of internally generated signals to the port. If the latch is set, internally generated signals are not propagated to the port, thereby preventing latch-up. If the latch is not set, both internally generated signals and externally generated signals are propagated to the port, thereby minimizing propagation delays.
摘要翻译: 多端口设备被配置为识别总线上的每个活动段,并且根据段是否有效来选择性地传播设备内的信号。 通过仅在总线上的第一主动转换之后调用信号传播的控制来实现最佳信号传播。 无条件地传播初始转换,以最小化传播延迟,并有条件地控制随后的信号传播,以避免闩锁。 一个锁存器与每个端口相关联。 每次端口由该端口上的设备主动驱动时,锁存器被置位。 当所有设备处于静止状态时,或当当前活动端口变为非活动状态时,其他端口保持活动状态时,锁存器将复位。 每个端口的锁存器的状态控制内部生成的信号到端口的传播。 如果锁存器被置位,内部产生的信号不会传播到端口,从而防止闩锁。 如果锁存器未被置位,则内部产生的信号和外部产生的信号被传播到端口,从而最小化传播延迟。

摘要: Methods and apparatus for implementing and operating pulse width modulation based LED dimmer controllers are described. A synchronization protocol is used to allow control information for the dimmer operations to be transferred to the PWM dimmer control clock domain from an external clock domain, such that visual artifacts are prevented when the control information is updated. Control information may be transferred to the LED dimmer controller via an I2C serial bus, and the synchronization protocol waits for an I2C STOP condition before updating control information across clock domain boundaries. The leading and trailing edges of an asserted group dimmer control signal are generated such that the active portion of the group dimmer control signal overlaps the active portion of individual LED pulse width modulated control signals. In this way, the pulse width modulation of the individual LED control signals is not cut off, or reduced in width by the group dimmer signal.
