    Abstract: A digital FM demodulator and method for determining phase changes in highly oversampled complex FM digital signals is described. In a first embodiment the FM signal is oversampled with respect to the frequency of its associated modulating signal. In this embodiment a first digital processing stage delays and conjugates the original FM signal. This delayed conjugated original FM signal is then multiplied with the original FM signal to generate a second signal that represents the changes in the phase between samples of the original FM signal. A second processing stage then delays and conjugates the second signal. The delayed conjugated second signal is then multiplied with the original second signal to generate a third signal that represents changes in the phase between samples of the second signal. The imaginary component of the third signal is passed through a digital integrator which outputs the phase changes of the original FM signal. In a second embodiment, the highly oversampled signal is oversampled with respect to the deviation frequency of its associated modulating signal. In this embodiment the center frequency of the original FM signal is frequency shifted to approximately zero frequency. This frequency shifted signal is then delayed and conjugated. The delayed conjugated shifted signal is then multiplied with the original frequency shifted signal; yielding an output signal where the imaginary portion of the output signal is equal to the phase changes of the original FM signal.

    Abstract: The present invention is an improvement of a digital topology including a logic block portion and a buffer portion. The improved buffer portion of the present invention is implemented with first and second parallel, same conductivity type transmission gates. The transmission gates couple either a first (V1) or second (V2) voltage onto the output of the buffer (55) in response to a logic signal originating from the logic block portion. The first (V1) and second (V2) voltages are selected to be relatively close in magnitude such that the peak-to-peak voltage of the digital output signal seen on the output of the buffer is relatively small. As a result, power consumption for charging the output of the buffer is minimized. In addition, the parallel transmission gates only consume power while charging the output of the buffer so that quiescent power consumption of the buffer is eliminated. Quiescent power dissipation is also eliminated in certain types of logic block designs that include logic gates having constant current sources. This is achieved by enabling the current sources with a pulse signal. The pulse width and magnitude of the pulse signal is selected to allow a latched sense amplifier to sense valid data from the output of the logic block portion during a specified interval. After valid data is sensed, the logic blocks's current sources are disabled, and the logic block portion no longer consumes any power. The sense amplifier is enabled for intervals long enough to capture the data from the logic block and drive the transmission gates with the data. In this configuration, none of the elements in the topology dissipate quiescent power since none of them are constantly operating.

    Abstract: An improvement for reducing proximity effects comprised of additional lines, referred to as intensity leveling bars, into the mask pattern. The leveling bars perform the function of adjusting the edge intensity gradients of isolated edges in the mask pattern, to match the edge intensity gradients of densely packed edges. Leveling bars are placed parallel to isolated edges such that intensity gradient leveling occurs on all isolated edges of the mask pattern. In addition, the leveling bars are designed to have a width significantly less than the resolution of the exposure tool. Therefore, leveling bars that are present in the mask pattern produce resist patterns that completely developed away when a nominal exposure energy is utilized during exposure of photoresist.
