Abstract:
An improved fractional divider that provides high resolution without the need for any analog components. It comprises an integer value storage means containing the integer part of the division value 'K' connected to the input of a programmable counter means that is configured for a count value of 'K' or 'K+1' depending upon the state of a count control signal and generates the output signal as well a terminal count signal which is connected to an enable input of a fractional accumulator means that produces said count control signal on an addition overflow and has a first input connected to its result output and a second input connected to the output of a fractional value storage means, containing the fractional part of the divider value.
Abstract:
The method and apparatus reduce access time in synchronous FIFOs with zero latency overheads. A FIFO buffer comprises FIFO means (301) storing 'n' data words, each 'm' bits wide, having an 'm' bit wide data input terminal. Furthermore, the FIFO buffer includes read data set selection means (303) connected to the data output terminals of the FIFO means and having two data output terminals providing simultaneous access to a selected storage location at an odd address and an even address. Odd read pointer generating means (304) provide the selection input to the data selection means (303) for selecting data at an odd read address of the read data selection means, while even read pointer generating means (305) provide the input for selecting data at an even read address. Multiplexing means (306) coupled to each of the two data output terminals of the read data set selection means select one of its outputs as the final output of the FIFO. State controlling means (310) coupled to the multiplexing means (306) control the selection of the final output and the selection input to the read data set selection means for selecting an odd read address and an even read address.
