摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for implementing direct attenuation loss measurement in an electronic package. A sinusoidal voltage source signal of a selected frequency is coupled to an embedded transmission line test structure in the electronic package. Receive circuitry is coupled to the transmission line test structure for detecting amplitude of a received sinusoidal voltage source signal to identify attenuation loss through the transmission line test structure. An identified attenuation loss of the transmission line test structure is compared with a threshold value for verifying acceptable attenuation of the electronic package transmission line test structure.

摘要： A memory chip suitable for use in a daisy chain of memory chips. The memory chip receives an address/command word on a first input, determines if the address command word is directed to the memory chip; if so, the memory chip accesses an array on the memory chip. If not, the memory chip re-drives the address/command word on a first output. Write data is received as part of the address/command word or from a first data bus port. A bus clock is received and is used to receive and transmit information on the first input, the first output, the first data bus port and the second data bus port. The memory chip is incorporated into a design structure that is embodied in a computer readable medium used for designing, manufacturing, or testing the memory chip.

摘要： In an embodiment, a predicted voltage to supply to an electronic device is learned based on a dynamic voltage variation that occurs at the electronic device. The dynamic voltage variation occurs in response to the electronic device processing a functional event, and the predicted voltage is supplied to the electronic device in response to observing the functional event on a bus that is connected to the electronic device. In response to observing the dynamic voltage variation, the predicted voltage that is associated with the functional event is modified based on the dynamic voltage variation. Then, on the next occurrence of the functional event, the predicted voltage is supplied to the electronic device. In this way, voltage transients at the electronic device are controlled.
