Data storage for voltage domain crossings |
摘要 |
According to an embodiment, an apparatus includes a data storage device. Data to be stored in the data storage device is level shifted from a first voltage domain to a second voltage domain prior to being stored within the data storage device. The data storage device is powered by the second voltage domain. The apparatus further includes a circuit that is powered by the second voltage domain and that is responsive to data output by the data storage device. |

1. An apparatus comprising:
a data storage device in a first clock domain, wherein data to be stored in the data storage device is level shifted from a first voltage domain to a second voltage domain. prior to being stored within the data storage device, and wherein the data storage device is powered by the second voltage domain; a circuit powered by the second voltage domain and in a second clock domain, the circuit responsive to output data, wherein the output data is output by the data storage device; and address circuitry powered by the first voltage domain, wherein the data storage device is responsive to an output of the address circuitry, and wherein the address circuitry includes a counter. |
