METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REDUCING LATENCY IN A PERIPHERAL COMPONENT INTERCONNECT EXPRESS LINK
A method for reducing latency in a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) link between a PCIe root complex and a PCIe device is provided. The method includes measuring, by the PCIe device, a throughput of data transmission that is sent to a buffer of the PCIe device. The method includes determining, by the PCIe device, a latency tolerance reporting (LTR) value based on the measured throughput. The method includes transmitting, by the PCIe device, the LTR value to the PCIe root complex at an estimated time point via the PCIe link, wherein the estimated time point is prior to a time at which a buffer switching operation occurs.
Various solutions for transmit power determination for sounding reference signal (SRS) with respect to user equipment and network apparatus in mobile communications are described. An apparatus may determine a type of random access procedure. The apparatus may determine a transmit power control (TPC) command value according to the type of random access procedure. The apparatus may obtain an SRS power control variable according to the TPC command value. The apparatus may transmit an SRS to a network node according to the SRS power control variable.
A chip with a current-mirror-like voltage source is shown. The current-mirror-like voltage source has a first n-channel Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (NMOS), a second NMOS, and an operational amplifier. The first and second NMOSs have drains coupled to a first voltage source Vdd1. The operational amplifier has an output terminal coupled to the gates of the first NMOS and the second NMOS, a negative input terminal coupled to the source of the first NMOS to form a negative feedback loop, and a positive input terminal coupled to the source of the second NMOS to form a positive feedback loop. The operational amplifier is powered by a second voltage source that is greater than the first voltage source, to operate the first and second NMOSs in their saturation region, and thereby the current-mirror-like voltage source outputs a load current mirrored from a first current.
A memory device includes memory cells, at least one word-line, bit-line groups, and a peripheral circuit. Each bit-line group includes multiple bit-lines.
