摘要:
A method for moving MS in the manner of the least packet loss can be divided into two steps. In the first step, when the MS is still connected to the source CN node and is running the effective loads, the MS prepares the routing information pointing at the target CN node. In the second step, the connection between the source CN node and the RAN node is released, the MS ID, the context data and the mobile information are transmitted to the target CN node. Then, a new connection between the target CN node and the RAN node is established. The step is completed synchronously and rapidly to minimize the packet loss. When establishing a new connection, the routing information transmitted to the MS before is used so that a new CN node is pointed at.

Techniques are disclosed for reducing area needed for implementing a memory array, such as SRAM arrays. The techniques may be embodied, for example, in a memory array design that includes a sense amplifier configured to operate in a reading mode for readout of memory cells and a writing mode for writing to memory cells. In addition, a common column multiplexer can be used for both read and write functions (as opposed to having separate multiplexers for reading and writing).

Techniques and circuitry are disclosed for efficiently implementing programmable memory array circuit architectures, such as PROM, OTPROM, and other such programmable non-volatile memories. The circuitry employs an antifuse scheme that includes an array of memory bitcells, each containing a program device and an antifuse element configured with current path isolation well and for storing the memory cell state. The bitcell configuration, which can be used in conjunction with column/row select circuitry, power selector circuitry, and/or readout circuitry, allows for high-density memory array circuit designs and layouts.

A process of forming a semiconductive capacitor device for a memory circuit includes forming a first capacitor cell recess and a second capacitor cell recess that are spaced apart by a capacitor cell boundary of a first height. The process includes lowering the first height of the capacitor cell boundary to a second height. A common plate capacitor bridges between the first recess and the second recess over the boundary above the second height and below the first height.

In one embodiment of the present invention, a technique is provided to control leakage of a cache sub-array. Other embodiments are disclosed herein. A sleep and shut-off circuit is connected between a virtual supply terminal and a first physical supply terminal to reduce leakage from the cache sub-array when the cache sub-array is disabled in a shut-off mode. The cache sub-array is connected between the virtual supply terminal and a second physical supply terminal. An active circuit is connected to the sleep and shut-off circuit in parallel to enable the cache sub-array in a normal mode and to disable the cache sub-array in the shut-off mode.

For one disclosed embodiment, an apparatus comprises a first p-type device coupled between a cell voltage node and a storage node, an n-type device coupled between the storage node and a reference voltage node, and a second p-type device to couple the storage node to a bit line in response to a signal on a select line. At least one side of diffusion regions in a substrate to form both the first p-type device and the second p-type device are substantially aligned. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
摘要:
A dynamic multi-voltage memory array features SRAM cells that are subjected to different biasing conditions, depending on the operating mode of the cells. The selected SRAM cell receives a first voltage when a read operation is performed, and receives a second voltage when a write operation is performed. By biasing the cell differently for the two distinct operations, a total decoupling of the read and write operations is achieved. The disclosed memory array, as well as future SRAM designs incorporating the multi-voltage capability thus avoid the conflicting requirements of read and write operations. Random single-bit failures of the memory array are reduced, due to the improvement in read stability and write margin.
摘要:
An optical interleaver for use in a range of telecommunications applications including optical multiplexers/demultiplexers and optical routers. The optical device includes an optical processing loop which allows multi-stage performance characteristics to be achieved with a single physical filtration stage. Optical processing on the first leg and second legs of the loop is asymmetrical thereby improving the integrity of the optical signals by effecting complementary chromatic dispersion on the first and second legs. A fundamental filter cell within the interleaver filters optical signals propagating on each of the two legs of the optical loop which intersects the fundamental filter cell.
