International Classification:
H03K 1716
US Classification:
326 30, 326 26, 327281
Abstract:
According to one aspect of the invention, a method is provided in which an input signal is received at a first node of a buffer circuit. The propagation of the input signal from the first node to a second node in the buffer circuit is delayed by a delay period based upon a first control input. The delay period is adjusted by a factor based upon a second control input.

Assignee:
Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H03K 19/0175 H03K 19/094
US Classification:
326 68, 326 63, 327333
Abstract:
A level shifter may reduce leakage current and provide firewall protection between circuits of different voltage domains when one voltage domain is in a standby mode. The level shifter may either couple or decouple input circuitry from a reference voltage in response to a firewall enable signal, may translate signals between a first voltage domain and a second voltage domain when the firewall enable signal is deasserted, and may generate an output signal having a predetermined one of either a high or low state when the firewall enable signal is asserted.

International Classification:
H03K 190175
US Classification:
326 63, 326 30, 326 87
Abstract:
According to one aspect of the invention, a method is provided in which an input signal is received at a first node of a buffer. The input signal is strengthened by a factor that corresponds to a control signal. The control signal is derived from an output signal of an impedance control unit that is used to compensate for variations in the buffers performance conditions. The output signal of the impedance control unit has a range of values corresponding to variations in the buffers performance conditions. The control signal has a range of values that is larger than the range of values associated with the output signal of the impedance control unit.
