    摘要: An integrated circuit includes an output driver circuit having first and second transistors coupled to an external pad of the integrated circuit and first and second multiplexer circuits. The first multiplexer circuit is configurable to cause the first transistor to be controlled by a first voltage during a data output mode of operation and to couple a first control input of the first transistor to the external pad during a hot-socket protection mode of operation. The second multiplexer circuit is configurable to cause the second transistor to be controlled by a second voltage during the data output mode of operation and to couple a second control input of the second transistor to the external pad during the hot-socket protection mode of operation.

    摘要: An integrated circuit includes configurable logic circuit blocks that are configurable with a first configuration bitstream according to a coarse grained configuration. The coarse grained configuration implements an aggregate circuit structure of the configurable logic circuit blocks. The configurable logic circuit blocks are configurable with a second configuration bitstream according to a fine grained configuration. A total number of the first and the second configuration bits is fewer than a single fine grained configuration bitstream.

    摘要: A virtualization platform for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is provided. The virtualization platform may include a host processor coupled to an acceleration coprocessor. The acceleration coprocessor may be a reconfigurable integrated circuit to help provide improved flexibility and agility for the NFV. The coprocessor may include multiple virtual function hardware acceleration modules each of which is configured to perform a respective accelerator function. A virtual machine running on the host processor may wish to perform multiple accelerator functions in succession at the coprocessor on a given data. In one suitable arrangement, intermediate data output by each of the accelerator functions may be fed back to the host processor. In another suitable arrangement, the successive function calls may be chained together so that only the final resulting data is fed back to the host processor.
