Abstract:
One or more values associated with a first configuration setting for a first circuit may be stored in a first set of one or more registers when an operation of the first circuit is based at least in part on one or more values associated with a second configuration setting stored in a second set of one or more registers. In response to receiving an indication of a change in an operating frequency or voltage of the first circuit, the one or more values stored in the second set of one or more registers may be changed by loading the one or more values associated with the first configuration setting stored in the first set of one or more registers into the second set of one or more registers in a parallel fashion.
Abstract:
A multi-channel memory system has a memory device, a plurality of channels, and a control circuit. The memory device has a plurality of memory storage spaces. The channels are coupled to the memory storage spaces, respectively, wherein each of the channels is configured to act as a memory interface for accessing a corresponding memory storage space independently. The control circuit controls clock frequencies of clocks on the channels, respectively. At a same time point, the channels include at least a first channel operating at a first clock frequency set by the control circuit and a second channel operating at a second clock frequency set by the control circuit at a same time point, and the second clock frequency is different from the first clock frequency.
