摘要： A communications link includes multiple continuously calibrated parallel lines, wherein one or more lines are at least partially powered down while being continuously calibrated to reduce power consumption. In one aspect, at least N+1 lines (where N is the logical bus width) are periodically recalibrated, and at least one redundant line is powered down between calibrations. The redundant line could be either a true spare available for use as a replacement, or an extra line which carries functional data while other lines are being calibrated in turn. In another aspect, the logical bus width is variable, but does not exceed NMAX. When N

The communication interface device includes shadow selection logic to select a driver bit position as a shadowed driver value, and line drivers to transmit data for the selected driver bit position and the shadowed driver value on separate link segments of a bus. The communication interface device also includes shadow compare logic to compare a selected received value with a shadowed received value from the bus and identify a miscompare in response to a mismatch of the compare, and shadow counters to count a rate of the miscompare relative to a bus error rate over a period of time. A defective link segment is identified in response to the rate of the miscompare within a predefined threshold of the bus error rate.

摘要： A mechanism for de-skewing and aligning data bits sent between two chips on an elastic interface. On the receiving end of an elastic interface, the eye of each data bit within a clock/data group is delayed by less than a bit time to align the eyes with the nearest clock edge of a received clock signal. In addition to aligning the eyes of the individual data bits with the nearest clock edge, IAP patterns are used to determine the amount of further delay needed to line up the individual data beats from each data bit. If the data beats for the data bits are not aligned, all but the slowest data beat are delayed to align the data beats for all bits. The additional delay is achieved using sample latches that result in a delayed signal with less jitter. As a result of having less jitter, the received, de-skewed, and aligned clock/data group can be forwarded to the operative portion of the receiving chip at an increased frequency.
摘要翻译：用于在弹性界面上在两个芯片之间发送的数据位的偏斜和对准的机制。在弹性接口的接收端，时钟/数据组内的每个数据位的眼睛被延迟小于一点时间，以使眼睛与接收到的时钟信号的最近的时钟沿对齐。除了将各个数据位的眼睛与最近的时钟边沿对齐之外，还使用IAP模式来确定从每个数据位排列各个数据节拍所需的进一步延迟量。如果数据位的数据跳转不对齐，除了最慢的数据跳转之外，除了所有位的数据跳转之外，都会被延迟。使用采样锁存器实现额外的延迟，导致延迟信号抖动较小。由于具有较少的抖动，所接收的，去偏斜的和对准的时钟/数据组可以以增加的频率转发到接收芯片的操作部分。

摘要： Methods and apparatus are disclosed for aligning received data bits in elastic interface systems. Depending upon which one of several alignment modes is selected, data bits can be loaded into FIFO latches on rising clock edges if the data was sent on rising clock edges, on falling clock edges if the data was sent on falling clock edges, or on the nearest clock edge if minimum latency is desired. Alternatively, data bits can be delayed by one or more bit times before loading into FIFO latches to reduce the elastic interface system's sensitivity to drift. The present invention permits a user to trade off factors related to for latency, drift, and skew by choosing among different alignment modes in an elastic interface system.
