Abstract: The charge injection circuit of this invention comprises at least one pair of floating gate MOS transistors (M1,M2) having source and drain terminals which are coupled together and to an injection node (ND), and at least one corresponding pair of generators (G1,G2) of substantially step-like voltage signals (S1,S2) having an initial value and a final value, and having outputs respectively coupled to the control terminals of said transistors (M1,M2); the signal generators (G1,G2) being such that the initial value of a first (S1) of the signals is substantially the equal of the final value of a second (S2) of the signals, and that the final value of the first signal (S1) is substantially the equal of the initial value of the second signal (S2).

Abstract: A method for the electric dynamic simulation of VLSI circuits, the particularity whereof resides in the fact that it comprises the steps of: -- determining, by means of a digital simulator and starting from a circuit to be simulated, a plurality of independent subcircuits whose dimensions are equal to, or smaller than, those of the circuit; -- electrically simulating each one of the subcircuits; and -- concatenating the results obtained by means of the electric simulations of the subcircuits.

Abstract: An input structure (1) for associative memories, including an array of elementary cells (2), a number of input lines (20), a number of output lines (30), a number of address lines (40), and a number of enabling lines (50). Each elementary cell (2) is formed by a D type latch (3) having a data input connected to one of the address lines (40) and an enabling input connected to one of the enabling lines (50), and by a switch (4) connected between an input line and an output line, and having a control input connected to the output of a respective latch to selectively connect the respective input line (20) and output line (30) according to the data stored in the latch.

Abstract: In order to estimate power consumption, over a given time interval, of digital circuits described at the level of functional elements (G) provided with input/output terminals (a, b, c; x), associated additional elements (B) are emulated at the hardware level. The said additional emulated elements are able to detect, during said time interval, at least one signal indicative of the behaviour of the functional element (G) associated during hardware emulation of the circuit. Preferably the number of transitions performed during the aforesaid time interval of the associated functional element (G) is recorded, as well as the fraction of time in which the state of said functional element (G) is stable (1 or 0). The value of said signals is acquired to perform an estimation of the power consumption of the functional element (G) during the aforesaid time interval.
