Systems, methods, and circuitry are provided for a sorting array. In one example, a sorting array element includes an output register and control circuitry. The output register is configured to store an output value. In response to a cell under test (CUT) load signal the output register stores a CUT value and in response to a first register shift signal from a previous sorting array element the output register stores contents of an output register of the previous sorting array element. The control circuitry is configured to generate the CUT load signal and a second register shift signal for a subsequent sorting array element based on relative magnitudes of the CUT value, the output value, and an output value stored in the output register of the previous sorting array element.

High throughput sort

Signal processing circuitry includes at least one processor configured to obtain a digitized radar signal, and further configured, for one or more iterations, to: determine a first power of at least one first signal sample of the radar signal; determine a second power of at least one second signal sample of the radar signal, the at least one second signal sample being subsequent in time to the at least one first signal sample; and determine a difference value between the second power and the first power. The at least one processor further configured to detecting a burst interference signal occurring within the radar signal based on the one or more difference values from the one or more iterations.

Systems, devices, and methods for real-time inteference detection

A circuit having load jump mitigation, including: circuit processing stages arranged in a pipeline configuration and operable based on respective stage clock signals; and clock control circuits respectively connected to the circuit processing stages to control the respective stage clock signals. Each of the clock control circuits is operable to: enable the respective stage clock signal in response to receiving a data in signal representing that the respective circuit processing stage begins to receive valid data for processing; disable the respective stage clock signal based on a predetermined respective circuit processing stage processing delay having elapsed since the respective circuit processing stage received any valid data; and enable a next of the clock control circuits, which is connected to a next of the circuit processing stages, based on the predetermined respective circuit processing stage processing delay having elapsed since the respective stage clock signal was enabled, indicating that the respective circuit processing stage is beginning to send the processed valid data to the next circuit processing stage.

Circuit with load jump mitigation

In some methods, sampled values based on a reception signal are stored in rows and columns of a memory array. A first 1-dimensional (1D) detector is moved in a first direction over the memory array. The first 1D detector includes a first cell under test and first and second training cells on opposite sides of the first cell under test. The first cell under test and the first and second training cells of the first 1D detector being aligned in the first direction. A second 1D detector is moved over the memory array. The second 1D detector includes a second cell under test and third and fourth training cells on opposite sides of the second cell under test. The second cell under test and the third and fourth training cells of the second 1D detector are aligned in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction.

Context based target detection

Systems, devices, and methods for real-time interference detection

A fault detector for detecting a fault in a digital processing circuit configured to transform an input data set to an output data set based on an energy conserving function. The fault detector includes an input sum of absolute squares circuit configured to determine an input sum of absolute squares value of the input data set, which has a predetermined length; an output sum of absolute squares circuit configured to determine an output sum of absolute squares value of the output data set; and an energy conservation check circuit configured to identify a fault in the digital processing circuit if a comparison based on the input sum of absolute squares value and the output sum of absolute squares value does not meet a predetermined energy conservation criteria.

Fault detection based on energy conservation

A reconfigurable integrated circuit is provided wherein the available hardware resources can be optimised for a particular application. Dynamically reconfiguring (in both real-time and non real-time) the available resources and sharing a plurality of processing elements with a plurality of controller elements achieve this. In a preferred embodiment the integrated circuit includes a plurality of processing blocks, which interface to a reconfigurable interconnection means. A processing block has two forms, namely a shared resource block and a dedicated resource block. Each processing block consists of one or a plurality of controller elements and a plurality of processing elements. The controller element and processing element generally comprise diverse rigid coarse and fine grained circuits and are interconnected through dedicated and reconfigurable interconnect. The processing blocks can be configured as a hierarchy of blocks and or fractal architecture.

Reconfigurable integrated circuit

A processor control system allows stored program code to be replaced. The original code can be stored entirely in a first memory, for example a ROM, with correction instructions stored in a second memory, for example a RAM, and the second memory is accessed only when a correction instruction exits. Received memory addresses are divided into a first plurality of most significant bits, and a second plurality of least significant bits. Only when the second plurality of least significant bits are all equal to zero, and there is a correction instruction stored in the RAM with an address which equals the most significant bits, the correction instruction is read and supplied to the processor. This, employs relatively little additional hardware, and the efficiency of the system is improved.

Processor control system for supplying control instructions to a processor

A finite state machine (FSM) circuit including a random access memory (RAM) as the basic logical element and a multiplexer, which can be programmed to perform arbitrary sequences of events. The RAM is used as a state table and output states are fed back to determine the next memory location. The number of locations in the RAM is reduced in comparison with prior art devices, which minimises power consumed by a microprocessor implementing such an FSM. This reduction in the number of locations is possible because only relevant inputs to the RAM are selected. The circuit has both synchronous and asynchronous implementations.
