    摘要: A method and apparatus of alternating service modes of a silicon on insulator (SOI) process circuit includes determining whether the SOI process circuit is in a first or second service mode. A first clock or a second clock is selected for transmission along a buswire of the SOI process circuit based upon the determination. A receiving device of the signal is notified whether the SOI process circuit is operating in the first service mode or the second service mode.

    摘要: A memory loopback system and method including an address/command transmit source configured to transmit a command and associated address through an address/command path. A transmit data source is configured to transmit write data associated with the command through a write path. Test control logic is configured to generate gaps between successive commands. A loopback connection is configured to route the write data from the write path to a read path. A data comparator is configured to compare the data received via the read path to a receive data source and generate a data loopback status output. Pattern generation logic can be configured to generate a loopback strobe, the loopback strobe being coupled to the read path. The pattern generation logic may be configured to synthesize a read strobe based on the test control logic and to use the synthesized read strobe as the loopback strobe. The loopback connection may be configured to route the address/command data from the address/command path to an address/command comparator, the address/command comparator being configured to compare the address/command data to an address/command receive source and generate an address/command loopback status output.

    摘要: A method and architecture optimizes transaction ordering in a hierarchical bridge environment. A parent-bridge is one level above a child-bridge, which in turn is one level above a grand-child component. The parent-bridge is a bridge-bridge. The child-bridge can be a bus-bridge or a bridge-bridge. The grand-child component can be a bus, a bus-bridge or a bridge-bridge. A parent-bridge is connected to a child-bridge via child-links, the child-bridge connected to grandchild-links, and the parent-bridge having multiple transaction order queues (TOQs) per child-link. Ideally, the parent-bridge has one TOQ for each grandchild-link where the parent-bridge applies separate transaction ordering for each of the grandchild-links. However, at a minimum, the system uses at least two TOQs per child-link, and as such, provides a higher level of transaction throughput than systems using one TOQ per child-link. The child-bridge sends a signal to the parent-bridge identifying from which grandchild-link a transaction was sent.

    摘要: A device for implementing transaction ordering enforcement between different queues of a computer system interconnect using an inter-queue ordering mechanism. The device includes first and second circular queues and input and output counters. The queues have an ordering dependency requirement between them such that entries in the second queue are not allowed to pass entries in the first queue. One requirement is that an entry in the second queue cannot be dequeued before an entry that was placed earlier in the first queue is dequeued. Another requirement is that an entry in the second queue cannot be dequeued before an entry that was placed earlier in the first queue is dequeued and then acknowledged as completed. The input and the output counters increment whenever an entry is enqueued to or dequeued from the first queue, respectively. The device may be implemented PCI and PCI-X systems or other interconnect systems.

    摘要: A technique is disclosed for facilitating data processing in a computer system. The technique utilizes logic to implement a dual mode design for PCI/PCI-X computer systems that enables optimal efficiency in regardless of which mode the system is operating in. The technique involves the implementation of two sets of transmitting and receiving elements, one tuned to PCI protocol timing and the other to PCI-X protocol. Therefore, allowing the system to process both PCI and PCI-X transactions without adversely affecting the other functional mode. The technique also enables an operator to adjust the clock timing separately for each protocol without having a detrimental affect on the other operating protocol.
