    摘要: A memory system having a memory element chip (DRAM) and a memory controller chips having a plurality of drivers and receivers and latches for transferred data. For writes clocks, write data and write for CRC (cyclic redundancy checks) is transferred to the DRAM from the memory controller and latched for error checking. The reads are clocked and the read data is received and transferred to a read data latch with also receives a clocked read strobe for verification of data integrity from DRAM. Each chip has a bi-functional pin that acts as a shared CRC pin during write and acts as a shared strobe pin during READ. Data transfers with the CRC signal and DQS signal are transferred across two paths CRC0/DQS and CRC1/DQS1. One could also transfer the CRC signal across one path with only the CRC0/DQS signal. Read operations have no CRC, and have no need for CRC because transfer errors during read can be detected by memory error correction coding (ECC). Write data provides source synchronous I/O data to said memory element chip needed for modem high speed memory communications.

    摘要: A system and method for providing a memory device having a shared error feedback pin. The system includes a memory device having a data interface configured to receive data bits and CRC bits, CRC receiving circuitry, CRC creation circuitry, a memory device pad, and driver circuitry. The CRC receiving circuitry utilizes a CRC equation for the detection of errors in one or more of the received data and the received CRC bits. The CRC creation circuitry utilizes the CRC equation for the creation of CRC bits consistent with data to be transmitted to a separate device bits. The memory device pad is configured for reporting of any errors detected in the received data and the received CRC bits. The driver circuitry is connected to the memory device pad and merged with one or more other driver circuitries resident on one or more other memory devices into an error reporting line.
