    摘要: The transmission of interrupts is described where the interrupt is represented at a peripheral device by the electrical level of a conductor but where it is conveyed to a receiving module by way of a message packet routed along a routing path. According to one aspect, the message packet includes the identification of the peripheral device which generated the interrupt and the receiving module acts on the message packet to implement an interrupt handling routine depending on the identification of the peripheral device. According to another aspect, the message packet includes a transaction identifier which uniquely identifies one of a series of interrupts, and the receiving module generates a response packet containing that transaction identifier thereby allowing the peripheral device to monitor whether or not its interrupts have been treated properly.

    摘要: The disclosed invention provides a structure and method for detecting address line (e.g., wordline, bitline) memory failures. In one embodiment, the method and structure comprise generating an address signature, by re-encoding an internally generated address signal from activated elements (e.g., wordlines) inside a memory array. The regenerated address signature may be compared with a requested memory address location. If the regenerated address signature and memory location are equal than there is no error in the memory array, but if the regenerated address signature and memory location are equal than an error is present in the memory array. Accordingly, re-encoding an address signature provides a closed loop check that a wordline and/or bitline, that was actually activated in a memory array, was the correct requested wordline and/or bitline, that no other wordlines or bitlines were also triggered, and that the wordline and/or bitline is continuous.
