    摘要: One aspect of the invention relates to a method for synchronizing control signals with scaled digital video data. In one version of the invention, the method includes the steps of transferring digitized video data from a digitizer to a video scaler which stores the digitized video data to form pixel data and generates a pixel qualifier signal to indicate when pixel data is valid; storing the pixel data into a field memory in response to the pixel qualifier signal from the video scaler; storing control signal data in a control memory in response to the pixel qualifier signal, the control signal data being representative of control signals provided by the video scaler, such that a correspondence is created between the pixel data stored in the field memory and the control signal data stored in the control memory; and transferring the pixel data stored in the field memory and the control signal data stored in the control memory to a bus interface unit, the bus interface unit being coupled to a data bus of a host processor, such that the correspondence between the pixel data and the control signal data is maintained during the transfer.

    摘要: A multi-layered printed circuit board having an integrated twisted pair conductor. In a preferred embodiment, the printed circuit board comprises two segmented conductor traces on a first and a second layer of the printed circuit board crisscrossing each other and a plurality of vias. The two segmented conductor traces on the first layer are connected to the two segmented conductor traces on the second layer through the vias. The twisted pair conductor may be shielded by adding a ground trace on either side of the conductor traces and a ground plane both above and below the conductor traces. The conductor traces may also be tuned to specific electrical characteristics by properly spacing the plurality of vias such that a specific number of turns per unit length are achieved. The continuous conductor traces may be further tuned by using a specific dielectric thickness as well as by designing the conductor traces to be of a specific dimension.

    摘要: A system for improving Field Replacement Unit (FRU) isolation in memory sub-systems by monitoring Voltage Regulator Module (VRM) induced memory errors. A comparator compares the output voltage coming from the VRM to memory. If the comparator detects a VRM output voltage transient that is outside a rated threshold, then a counter is increased by one. If the counter exceeds a count threshold, a VRM error is posted. If a memory failure occurs within a predetermined period of time, then the VRM error pinpoints the VRM output voltage transient as being the likely cause of the memory failure.

    摘要: A system and method for handling processor internal errors in a data processing system. The data processing system typically includes a set of main microprocessors that have access to a common system memory via a system bus. The system may further include a service processor that is connected to at least one of the main processors. In addition, the system includes internal error handling hardware configured to log and process internal errors generated by one or more of the main processors. The internal error hardware may include error detection logic configured to receive internal error signals from the main processors. In response to receiving one or more IERR signals, the error detection logic is configured to assert and error detected signal that is received by error logging logic. The error logging logic is configured to update one or more error status register when the error detected signal is asserted. When the error logging logic has updated the status registers, is configured to assert an error logging complete signal that is received by processing control logic. The processor control logic is configured to assert one or more processor enable signals based on the state of the error status registers. In addition, upon completion of the error status update by the error logging logic, the status register is configured to assert an error status updated signal that ultimately produces a system reset. By incorporating error logging and handling into dedicated hardware tied directly to the processor internal error signals, the invention provides a low cost, low response latency mechanism for handling processor internal errors in high performance multiprocessor systems.

    摘要: A data processing assembly includes one or more hosts connected to one or more I/O Expansion Drawers. Assignment state information is stored on the Expansion Drawer to convey the assignment state of Expansion Drawer(s) resources to the hosts. The host retrieves the assignment state and, from it, determines, for each Expansion Buss cable connected to the host, the number of Expansion Cards in the Expansion Drawer to configure. A change in the number of Expansion Cards in the expansion apparatus may necessitate a change in the assignment state, which can be electronically accommodated (as opposed to a manual reconfiguration). Similarly, a failure of an Expansion Buss cable is addressed by electronically reassigning resources to another host or to the same host over a different Expansion Buss cable without the need for further manual intervention. The assembly is capable of verifying correct cable connection between a host and the Expansion Drawer.

    摘要: A cable having an electrically conducting wire with a cross sectional shape defined by a simple closed curve having from three to eight concave portions separated by an equal number of convex portions. The simple closed curve has no point where the radius of curvature is less than one-sixth (⅙) of an overall radius of the wire and no point where adjacent curves or lines intersect at an angle. The alternating concave and convex portions of the cable's cross-sectional shape may have substantially the same curvature. The cross-sectional shape of the cable avoids sharp angles and fight curves.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a communication system for a multi-blade server system includes a multi-drop serial bus network interconnecting a management module with each of a plurality of servers in a multi-server chassis. A first transceiver subsystem is configured for communicating over the serial bus network between the management module and each server within a first frequency band. A second transceiver subsystem is configured for simultaneously communicating over the serial bus network between the management module and the servers within a second frequency band higher than the first frequency band. A first signal-filtering subsystem substantially filters out signals in the second frequency band from the first transceiver subsystem. A second signal-filtering subsystem substantially filters out the signals in the first frequency band from the second transceiver subsystem.
