A circuit arrangement comprising a flip-flop, a first power switch transistor, and a plurality of switching transistors. The flip-flop has a plurality of storage transistors with a threshold voltage of a first value. The first power switch transistor has a threshold voltage of a second value, wherein an application of a predetermined electrical potential to its gate terminal brings the circuit arrangement to an operating state such that if at least one supply voltage is switched off, electric charge carriers contained in the circuit arrangement are prevented from flowing away from the circuit arrangement. The plurality of switching transistors, which have a threshold voltage of a third value, are provided between the flip-flop and the first power switch transistor, for coupling a flip-flop input signal into the flip-flop. The magnitude of the first and/or the second value is greater than the magnitude of the third value.

A high-speed, current-driven latch is provided. The latch conducts a current and includes an output, a SET circuit and a RESET circuit. The output is variable between a first state and a second state. The SET circuit conducts the current present in the latch at the first state such that the SET circuit is maintained close to a level required to change the output of the transistor from the first to the second level, and the RESET circuit conducts the current at the second level such that the RESET circuit is close to a level required to change the output of the transistor from the second level to the first level.

In a latch circuit having a bistable pair of cross connected transistors of a first polarity and a third transistor of a second polarity, a current signal greater than a bias current is received at a latch circuit port, amplified with the third transistor, and applied to the latch circuit port. This decreases the time in which the latch circuit port receiving the current signal greater than the bias current reaches a steady state voltage.

Provided is a flip-flop capable of operating at high speed by reducing a clock-to-output delay. The flip-flop includes a sense amplifier and a latch circuit. The sense amplifier includes a first node and a second node, precharges the first node and the second node with a supply voltage according to a state of a clock signal, or receives and amplifies differential input signals according to the state of the clock signal, so as to output differential output signals to the first node and the second node. The latch circuit is connected to the first node and the second node, and detects and latches the differential input signals according to the state of the clock signal and the differential output signals. The flip-flop described above does not use a NAND gate, so that a clock-to-output delay can be reduced. Therefore, the flip-flop has an advantage of operating at high speed.

A combination circuit is switched between an active state where power is supplied thereto in response to a control signal and an inactive state where power thereto is interrupted. A flip-flop circuit connected to an input terminal of the combination circuit stores an output signal of the combination circuit in response to a clock signal. The combination circuit is set to an operative state by the control signal immediately before the flip-flop circuit operates in response to the clock signal.

A multiple partition memory array has a command user interface for each partition, and a logic interface. The logic interface receives signals from each of the command user interfaces to restrict executable commands in the command user interfaces to those commands that will not tax the system given the current status of each of the command user interfaces.

摘要:
A reference voltage is moved dynamically towards a voltage level of the last received value. The movement takes place over a predetermined fraction of a bit-time. The amount of movement is limited so that successive logical values don't result in an unusable reference voltage level. When the output of a receiver changes, a state machine sequences the selection of analog reference voltage inputs to a multiplexer to move an output reference voltage towards a steady-state signal voltage level for the value that was just received. When the sequence is complete, the state machine keeps the last value selected on the output until the output of the receiver changes value.
