摘要: A two-chip die module with minimal chip-to-chip clock skew is provided. The two-chip die module includes a common substrate, first and second chips operably disposed on the common substrate to be communicative in parallel with one another and a single phase lock loop (PLL). The PLL is disposed within one of the first and second chips to provide a source for a common clock signal for the first and second chips. PLL signals of the PLL to the first and second chips are nearly equal and clock sample signals of the first and second chips are nearly equal.

摘要: A method, a system and a computer program product for reconfiguring hardware network topology including graphics processor units (GPU) and central processing unit (CPU) interconnectivity on or across compute nodes of a rack-mount server. The re-configurability is based on detected thermal throttling or thermal hot spots when running workloads. For network re-configurability, a user can directly connect high-speed cable links between CPU/GPU connectors and between GPU/GPU connectors on a same PCB compute node, or across two PCB compute nodes as suggested by a control processor to avoid thermal and power hotspots when running the workload. The method recommends and generates a system map of the hardware network topology known to avoid/mitigate thermal throttling, and instructs a configuration of CPUs and GPUs such that GPUs are assigned to workloads at locations for mitigating thermal throttling based on detected thermal hot spots and power hot spots to optimize workload performance.

摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods for testing channel compliance. The method generally includes identifying at least one design criteria and determining boundary sets of frequency domain parameters for compliant signal channels known to achieve the design criteria. The boundary sets may be used for verifying whether a particular signal channel is compliant by comparing values of frequency domain parameters for the particular channel to one or more of the boundary sets of frequency domain parameters for the known compliant channels.

摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods for using a compliance model to determine compatibility of a channel with a bus's chip I/O circuitry at its ends. The method includes identifying at least one design criteria and obtaining boundary sets of frequency domain parameters for compliant signal channels known to achieve the design criteria. In certain embodiments, the boundary sets may be derived using a genetic algorithm. The method further includes verifying whether a particular signal channel is compliant by comparing values of frequency domain parameters for the particular channel to one or more of the boundary sets of frequency domain parameters for the known compliant channels.

摘要: Mechanisms, in a data processing system comprising an input/output subsystem implementing an industry standard optical bus, for handling a failure of an optical channel in an optical bus are provided. The mechanisms detect, by failure detection logic of the input/output (I/O) subsystem, failure of an optical channel of the optical bus. The mechanisms send, by a controller of the I/O subsystem, a control signal to channel routing logic of the I/O subsystem to control a routing of data signals between active bus lanes of the data processing system and optical channels of the optical bus in response to detecting the failure of the optical channel. The mechanisms control, by the channel routing logic, routing of data signals between the active bus lanes and the optical channels so as to remove the failed optical channel from further use and use a spare optical channel instead of the failed optical channel.

摘要: A system for detecting one or more signals at a PCI Express interface includes a receiver configured to receive a signal at the PCI Express interface, and a peak detector configured to detect one or more signals based on level sensing, and identify one or more data sampling points to set an amplitude threshold. A comparator is configured to compare an amplitude of the received signal with the amplitude threshold, and a processor is configured to confirm that the received signal is a valid signal when the amplitude of the signal is at least one of greater than or equal to the amplitude threshold over a predefined period of time. The processor is also configured to disable a signal detector that can detect one or more low frequency signals. The system also includes a tester configured to test whether the detected signal is correct.
