摘要: Provided is a delay-locked loop circuit for providing a delay-locked clock signal to a data output buffer, the delay-locked loop circuit including: a first delay-locked-mode-based selector configured to select, as a first selected clock signal, one of a first divided clock signal, which is obtained by dividing a reference clock signal by N, and the reference clock signal; and a delay-locked mode controller configured to determine a delay-locked mode on the basis of a command received from the outside and to control the first delay-locked-mode-based selector according to the delay-locked mode. The delay-locked clock signal is generated by comparing a phase of a feedback clock signal generated from the first selected clock signal with a phase of the reference clock signal.

摘要: A high-speed memory circuit architecture for arrays of resistive change elements is disclosed. An array of resistive change elements is organized into rows and columns, with each column serviced by a word line and each row serviced by two bit lines. Each row of resistive change elements includes a pair of reference elements and a sense amplifier. The reference elements are resistive components with electrical resistance values between the resistance corresponding to a SET condition and the resistance corresponding to a RESET condition within the resistive change elements being used in the array. A high speed READ operation is performed by discharging one of a row's bit lines through a resistive change element selected by a word line and simultaneously discharging the other of the row's bit lines through of the reference elements and comparing the rate of discharge on the two lines using the row's sense amplifier. Storage state data are transmitted to an output data bus as high speed synchronized data pulses. High speed data is received from an external synchronized data bus and stored by a PROGRAM operation within resistive change elements in a memory array configuration.

摘要: During a command/address calibration mode, a memory controller may transmit multiple cycles of test patterns as signals to a memory device. Each cycle of test pattern signals may be transmitted at an adjusted relative phase with respect to a clock also transmitted to the memory device. The memory device may input the test pattern signals at a timing determined by the clock, such as rising and/or falling edges of the clock. The test pattern as input by the memory device may be sent to the memory controller to determine if the test pattern was successfully transmitted to the memory device during the cycle. Multiple cycles of test pattern transmissions are evaluated to determine a relative phase of command/address signals with respect to the clock for transmission during operation of the system.

摘要: Examples may include techniques for dual-range clock duty cycle tuning of a clock signal used for an input/output data bus. A clock duty cycle of the clock signal is monitored to determine whether the clock duty cycle falls within a threshold of a 50 percent duty cycle. A dual-range tuning is then implemented until the clock duty cycle of the clock signal falls within the threshold.

摘要: An integrated circuit may comprise a digital logic circuit, a memory refresh circuit, and DRAM cells. A first portion of the DRAM cells may be refreshed by the memory refresh circuit. The DRAM cells store data received via a communication link and a rate at which the first portion of the DRAM cells is refreshed may be adjusted based on a symbol rate at which the data is received via the communication link. The DRAM cells may include one-transistor (“1T”) cells. The adjustment of the rate at which the first portion of the DRAM cells is refreshed may include an enabling of refresh of the first portion of the DRAM cells by the memory refresh circuit during a first time interval and a disabling of refresh of the first portion of the DRAM cells by the memory refresh circuit during a second time interval.
