Bus encoding/decoding apparatus and method - 百度学术https://xueshu.baidu.com/usercenter/paper/show?paperid=1r4y0rv0mr4f0g804v2k0tk0yk051550

A bus encoding/decoding apparatus and method for a low power digital signal processor (DSP), which uses a narrow data bus, is provided. The apparatus for encoding n bits of data of a data bus, includes a conditional inverting unit for inverting each of (n1) lower bits of n data when the most significant bit of the n bits of data is 1, a storage unit for storing the last n bits of data which is output to the bus, and a first exclusive OR operating unit for performing a bitwise exclusive OR operation on the lower (n1) bits or data, which has been inverted by the conditional inverting unit, and the lower (n1) bits of the n data, which has been stored in the storage unit, wherein the most significant bit of the n bits of data and (n1) bits of data, which is obtained as the result of the bitwise exclusive OR operation performed by the first exclusive OR operating unit, are output. Accordingly, interface problems with a core and overhead for an additional circuit can be reduced by removing the additional circuit for determining whether to invert data and an extra line, which are used in the conventional BI and BITS coding methods, thereby decreasing the power consumption and the area of a chip.

D基体偏压

重新定义低功耗、小尺寸FPGA-EDN 电子技术设计物联网AI、嵌入式视觉、硬件安全、5G通信、工业和汽车自动化等新兴应用正在重新定义开发人员设计网络边缘产品的硬件要求。https://www.ednchina.com/news/202005261413.html

FD-SOI工艺让莱迪思的工程师能够开发全新电路设计,充分发挥该工艺的固有优势。其优势之一就是FD-SOI支持可编程基体偏压(body bias),这是一种位于晶体管基体上的块电阻,能让开发人员在晶体管运行期间进行动态调节。莱迪思的研发团队发明的可编程基体偏压,能够根据设计的功耗和散热管理需要,让器件以高性能模式或低功耗模式运行。只需通过软件开关即可控制运行模式。开发人员通过对基体偏压进行编程实现高性能或低功耗之间的切换,可以优化 FPGA 的功耗/性能,更好地满足应用的功耗和散热管理需求。这不仅有助于降低电池供电的网络边缘设备的功耗,还能降低工业和数据中心等应用的电力成本。根据莱迪思估算,基于Nexus平台的FPGA的功耗将比同类竞品最多减少75%。

5、Complete the blanks inthe following question with the appropriate answer.

Select the appropriate asynchronous technical terms tothe corresponding sequence number.

CDC Check Clock Domain Crossing Check.

MTBF Check Mean Time Between Failure Check.

Glitch Check Combinational logic will cause glitch violationin sync path, it can be covered by STA Make sure no combinational logic beforea synchronizer.

Reconvergence Check: Signals synced by a groupsynchronizers can't merged into combinational logic immediately.

B2B Check: Two beat approach by flops are usually usedto handle asynchronous paths. But there is no quantized parameters to calculateMTBF by this approach.

Async Timing Check Async path timing status is notcovered by STA We use scripts to capture related timing to check these paths.

解:这图好糊 、

6、Complete the blanks inthe following question with the appropriate answer.

There is a FIFO, at the input side, there will be atmost 80 valid input out of 100 cycles; at the output side there will be at least 8 available slots out of 10 cycles, please specify what is the minimized FIFO depth for this case.

Depth=_____106____

160*(80/100)- 160*(10/100)*(8/10)=128-12.8=106

8 、There is a counter can down count from 60 to 0. When the count reaches 0, the count will alarm. There are 4 buttonson the counter (they can all be treated as pulse signals). Users are allowed topress merely 1 button each time. When the counter is alarming, press ‘add’ or ‘clear’buttons will stop alarming.

Button 'start':press 'start' button,the counter will start downcount to 0.

Button 'clear':press 'clear' button,the counter will be back to 60 and stop counting.

Button 'hold':press 'hold' button, thecounter will stop countering, until press 'start' or 'clear' button ('add'button doesn't work when hold).

Button 'add'

press 'add' button, the counter will add 10 (Forexample, when the counter is 20, press 'add' then the counter will go back to 30. When the counter is 54, press 'add' then the counter will go back to 60.)

Please draw the finite state machine diagram

Please describe the counter in verilog using the ftmyou design in question 1(clock signal: clk, reset signal: rst_n) Output alarm(when the counter is arming, alarm=1). Output [5:0] counter_num from (60 to 0)

Please use below module definition to start with:

module downcounter(

    input  clk,

    input  rst_n,

    //funcbuttons

    input  start,

    input  clear,

    input  hold,

    input  add,

    output  alarm,

    output[5:0] counter_num

);

endmodule

10、Gate level logic netlist_ais optimized to netlist_b in back-end flow. And they are checked by formalcheck tool to prove whether they are functional equivalence. Please answer belowquestions.

1.What is the concept of combinational and sequential logic?Please classify A/B/C/D cells in below netlist_a schematic, which belong tocombinational logic and which belongs to sequential logic?

组合逻辑

时序逻辑

 bcd组合逻辑,a时序逻辑

2. If the value vector 110 is applied to the leftthree flops D pin After 1 cycle what is the D pin value of the reg_d in netlist_a/netlist_b?

3. Please estimate if above netlists are functionequivalent or not according to the netlist schematics and explain why?

不等效吧

第一个化简得 :第一个看不清,到底是vdd还是gnd?

假设是vdd,结果是a+b^c

如果是gnd,结果是a+b'c

第二个化简得:a'+b^c

但不管是啥,a的路径都不等价吧

11、3-stages pipelinecircuit shown as below.

The clock period is 0.9

The clock uncertainty is 0.1

The cell delay for F1/F2/F3 from CP-> Q are 0.15

The library setup require time for F1/F2/F3 are 0.1

1. Please calculate the setup slack between F1 and F2

 写错了 slack减反了,应该是-0.25ns

2. Please describe what's clock skew and suggest how to fix the setup violation between F1 and F2 with clock skew

 换一个速度快的寄存器,降低温度,降低时钟频率,加流水线,缩短关键路径,在f2时钟路径上加buffer

3. Please recalculate the slack between F2 and F3 after the setup violation between F1 and F2 are fixed to 0

【STA专题四】时序约束 - 知乎

setup slack = 0.9-0.15-0.1 = 0.75

12、Please use NAND2 gates to create new logic signal as below: (Use as less gates as possible) New_ logic= ECO_SELECT? Original_logic & mask: original logic;

13、Design a sequence(10100) detector. The logic with single bit input and single bit output. When detectinginput bit with the sequence of 10100 output pulse with one cycle of 1'b1,otherwise output keeps 1'b0. (No need to write RTL code, just provide aschematic diagram or a state machine flow chart.)

 输出补一下斜杠,我忘写了

14、Design a block (WriteVerilog code) with below requirement:

Block interfaces: data_in[31:0], data_ in_valid, data_out[31:0],data_out_valid, clock, reset_;

Function: Input package of data_in and output packageof data_out both include 4 bytes of data, and we expect that data_out containsthe 4 bytes data from the same position but in different input cycle. (i.e.output cycle 0 contains the lowest bytes from input cycle 0 to 3; output cycle1 contains to second lowest bytes from input cycle 0 to 3; output cycle 2contains second highest bytes from input cycle 0 to 3; output cycle 3 containshighest bytes from input cycle 0 to 3; output cycle 4 contains lowest bytesfrom input cycle 4 to8...)

Timing requirement: data_out and data_out_valid need direct flop-driven.
