20160077878 | Logical Data Shuffling - Embodiments relate to data shuffling by logically rotating processing nodes. The nodes are logically arranged in a two or three dimensional matrix. Every time two of the nodes in adjacent rows of the matrix are positionally aligned, these adjacent nodes exchange data. The positional alignment is a logical alignment of the nodes. The nodes are logically arranged and rotated, and data is exchanged in response to the logical rotation. | 03-17-2016 |
20090309184 | STRUCTURE AND METHOD TO FORM E-FUSE WITH ENHANCED CURRENT CROWDING - An e-fuse structure and method has an anode; a fuse link (a first end of the fuse link is connected to the anode); a cathode (a second end of the fuse link opposite the first end is connected to the cathode); and a silicide layer on the fuse link. The silicide layer has a first silicide region adjacent the anode and a second silicide region adjacent the cathode. The second silicide region comprises an impurity not contained within the first silicide region. Further, the first silicide region is thinner than the second silicide region. | 12-17-2009 |
20090055122 | On-Chip Frequency Response Measurement - A method and circuit are provided for measuring frequency response performance of an integrated circuit by providing a pulse having a rising edge and a falling edge where the pulse is provided to a plurality of serially connected components. The number of these components which have propagated the leading edge of the pulse before the occurrence of the falling edge provide a numeric indication of the circuit's frequency response and performance. | 02-26-2009 |
