APPARATUSES AND METHODS INCLUDING DICE LATCHES IN A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18335385 Titled 'APPARATUSES AND METHODS INCLUDING DICE LATCHES IN A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes an apparatus that includes multiple dice latches, control logic, and data input logic. The dice latches store data and are connected in parallel. The control logic receives signals to load and reset the data, and it provides the necessary signals to the dice latches. The data input logic is connected to each dice latch and receives signals to precharge and input data. It then provides the data and its complement to the respective dice latch.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to one or more embodiments, an apparatus comprising a plurality of dice latches, dice latch control logic, and a plurality of data input logic is provided. The dice latches are coupled in parallel and latch respective data. The dice latch control logic receives a load control signal and a reset control signal, provides a reset signal and further provides first and second load signals to the dice latches. The reset signal is based on the reset control signal. The first and second load signals are based on the load control signal and the reset control signal. The data input logic each are coupled to a respective one of the dice latches. Each of the data input logic receives a precharge control signal and respective input data and further provides data and complementary data to the respective one of the dice latches.
