Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing a simulated write in a computer system includes, responsive to a scheduled memory operation determined by a memory controller, sending a simulated write operation to a physical layer circuitry (PHY) to increase circuit power without enabling the output of the PHY until the memory operation begins. Responsive to the memory operation being complete, sending a simulated write operation to the PHY to decrease circuit power.

Abstract: A controller integrated in a memory physical layer interface (PHY) can be used to control training used to configure the memory PHY for communication with an associated external memory such as a dynamic random access memory (DRAM), thereby removing the need to provide training sequences over a data pipeline between a BIOS and the memory PHY. For example, a controller integrated in the memory PHY can control read training and write training of the memory PHY for communication with the external memory based on a training algorithm. The training algorithm may be a seedless training algorithm that converges on a solution for a timing delay and a voltage offset between the memory PHY and the external memory without receiving, from a basic input/output system (BIOS), seed information that characterizes a signal path traversed by training sequences or commands generated by the training algorithm.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for clock delay compensation in a multiple chiplet system. Techniques disclosed include distributing, by a clock generator, a clock signal across distribution trees of respective chiplets; measuring phases, by phase detectors, where each phase measurement is associated with a chiplet of the chiplets and is indicative of a propagation speed of the clock signal through the distribution tree of the chiplet. Then, for each chiplet, techniques are further disclosed that determine, by a microcontroller, based on the phase measurements associated with the chiplet, a delay offset, and that delay, based on the delay offset, the propagation of the clock signal through the distribution tree of the chiplet using a delay unit associated with the chiplet.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for training data in a computer system includes reading data stored in a first memory address in a memory and writing it to a buffer. Training data is generated for transmission to the first memory address. The data is transmitted to the first memory address. Information relating to the training data is read from the first memory address and the stored data is read from the buffer and written to the memory area where the training data was transmitted.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for calibrating, by a memory interface system, an interface with dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) using a dynamically changing training clock. Techniques disclosed comprise receiving a system clock having a clock signal at a first pulse rate. Then, during the training of the interface, techniques disclosed comprise generating a training clock from the clock signal at the first pulse rate, the training clock having a clock signal at a second pulse rate, and sending, based on the generated training clock, command signals, including address data, to the DRAM.

Abstract: In one form, an apparatus comprises a delay circuit and a controller. The delay circuit delays a plurality of command and address signals according to a first delay signal and provides a delayed command and address signal to memory interface. The controller performs command and address training in which the controller provides an activation signal and a predetermined address signal with first timing according to the first delay signal, and the plurality of command and address signals besides the predetermined address signal with second timing according to the first delay signal, wherein the second timing is relaxed with respect to the first timing. The controller determines an eye of timing for the predetermined address signal by repetitively providing a predetermined command on the command and address signals, varying the first delay signal, and measuring a data signal received from the memory interface.
