    摘要: Techniques and mechanisms for providing termination for a plurality of chips of a memory device. In an embodiment, a memory device is an integrated circuit (IC) package which includes a command and address bus and a plurality of memory chips each coupled thereto. Of the plurality of memory chips, only a first memory chip is operable to selectively provide termination to the command and address bus. Of the respective on-die termination control circuits of the plurality of memory chips, only the on-die termination control circuit of the first memory chip is coupled via any termination control signal line to any input/output (I/O) contact of the IC package. In another embodiment, the plurality of memory chips are configured in a series with one another, and wherein the first memory chip is located at an end of the series.

    摘要: A transmission line interface circuit includes a voltage regulator to control a voltage swing of the transmission line interface circuit for signal transmission. The transmission line interface circuit includes complementary driver elements, including a p-type driver element to pull up the transmission line in response to a logic high, and an n-type driver element to pull down the transmission line in response to a logic low. The voltage regulator is coupled between one of the driver elements and a respective voltage reference to reduce a voltage swing of the transmission line interface circuit.

    摘要: Described herein are a method and an apparatus for dynamically switching between one or more finite termination impedance value settings to a memory input-output (I/O) interface of a memory in response to a termination signal level. The method comprises: setting a first termination impedance value setting for a termination unit of an input-output (I/O) interface of a memory; assigning the first termination impedance value setting to the termination unit when the memory is not being accessed; and switching from the first termination impedance value setting to a second termination impedance value setting in response to a termination signal level.
