Pulse-signaling circuits for networks on chip

摘要

A pulse circuit contains an input stage configured to receive input pulses on input nodes using push-pull elements, wherein a given push-pull element is configured to receive an input pulse on a given input node and to provide a corresponding internal signal. The pulse circuit further contains a feedback loop that includes a logic element coupled between outputs from the push-pull elements and reset nodes of the push-pull elements. This logic element is configured to provide one or more outputs from the pulse circuit and to reset the internal signals from the push-pull elements via the feedback loop.
