摘要： A memory controller receives data and phase-providing signals from a memory device. The phase-providing signal is not a clock signal, but is used by the memory controller to phase align a local data-sampling signal with the incoming data. The memory controller samples the data signal with the data-sampling signal. The memory controller can perform maintenance operations to update the phase relationship between the phase-providing and data-sampling signals.

摘要： A memory device includes multiple data I/O lanes and corresponding lane or column decoders. Instead of providing the same address to each column decoder, decoder logic calculates potentially different column addresses depending on the needs of the device utilizing the memory. For example, the column addresses might be based on a received CAS address and an accompanying offset. This allows data access at alignments that do not necessarily correspond to CAS alignments. The technique is utilized in conjunction with graphics systems in which tiling is used. In systems such as this, memory offsets are specified in terms of pixel columns and rows. The technique is also used in conjunction with a router such as a TCP/IP router, in which individual packets are aligned at CAS boundaries. In this situation, the decoder logic is alternatively configurable to allow access of either an information packet or a plurality of packet headers during a single memory access cycle.

摘要： An apparatus that reduces sampling errors for data communicated between devices uses phase information acquired from a timing reference signal such as a strobe signal to align a data-sampling signal for sampling a data signal that was sent along with the timing reference signal. The data-sampling signal may be provided by adjustably delaying a clock signal according to the phase information acquired from the strobe signal. The data-sampling signal may also have an improved waveform compared to the timing reference signal, including a fifty percent duty cycle and sharp transitions. The phase information acquired from the timing reference signal may also be used for other purposes, such as aligning received data with a local clock domain, or transmitting data so that it arrives at a remote device in synchronism with a reference clock signal at the remote device.

摘要： Methods and arrangements are provided for use in memory devices, which allow column address strobe (CAS) timing to adjust to, and/or be adjusted by a controller to, have both minimal unloaded latency and optimal pipelined latency. A delay CAS (DC) period is only applied until a row-to-column delay (tRCD) has been satisfied. Once the tRCD has been satisfied, then the DC period is not enforced for subsequent CAS operations within the memory core associated with a page hit. When a subsequent read command is received at the input/output pins of the memory device and a corresponding RAS operation is performed in the memory core, then the tRCD will again need to be satisfied and a DC period will again be enforced. Consequently the methods and arrangements allow the CAS delay to be dynamically and selectively adjusted to best support the workload. This results in better performance and increased bandwidth.
