    Abstract: A DPE memristor crossbar array system includes a plurality of partitioned memristor crossbar arrays. Each of the plurality of partitioned memristor crossbar arrays includes a primary memristor crossbar array and a redundant memristor crossbar array. The redundant memristor crossbar array includes values that are mathematically related to values within the primary memristor crossbar array. In addition, the plurality of partitioned memristor crossbar arrays includes a block of shared analog circuits coupled to the plurality of partitioned memristor crossbar arrays. The block of shared analog circuits is to determine a dot product value of voltage values generated by at least one partitioned memristor crossbar array of the plurality of partitioned memristor crossbar arrays.

    Abstract: Devices and methods are provided, In one aspect, a device for driving a memristor array includes a substrate including a well having a bottom layer, a first wall and a second wall. The substrate is formed of a strained layer of a first semiconductor material. A vertical JFET is formed in the well. The vertical JFET includes a vertical gate region formed in a middle portion of the well with a gate region height less than a depth of the well. A channel region is formed of an epitaxial layer of a second semiconductor wrapped around the vertical gate region. Vertical source regions are formed on both sides of a first end of the vertical gate region, and vertical drain regions are formed on both sides of a second end of the vertical gate region.

    Abstract: A method is provided. In an example, the method includes identifying a memory module that includes a plurality of memory dies. Each memory die of the plurality of memory dies includes a plurality of memory regions, and each memory die of the plurality of memory dies services a respective portion of a data access. An error pattern is detected in a first memory region of the plurality of memory regions. The first memory region is associated with a first memory die of the plurality of memory dies. Based on the detected error pattern, the first memory region of the first memory die is marked as erased without marking a second memory region of the first memory die as erased.

    Abstract: A method for managing a multi-lane serial link is described. The method includes establishing a serial link between a number of integrated circuits across a first number of lanes. The first number of lanes are a subset of a number of available lanes on the serial link. The method also includes selecting to change a transmission state of a second number of lanes. The second number of lanes are a subset of the available lanes. The method also includes changing the transmission state of the second number of lanes while transmitting data on a number of remaining lanes. The method further includes synchronizing the first number of lanes and the second number of lanes.
