Embodiments including systems, methods, and apparatuses associated with reordering data retrieved from a dynamic random access memory (DRAM). A memory controller may be configured to receive an instruction from a central processing unit (CPU) and, based on the instruction, retrieve a sequential data from a DRAM. The memory controller may then be configured to reorder the sequential data and place the reordered data in one or more locations of a vector register file.

A refresh voltage control engine selectively applies different high voltages to use in refresh operations. The control engine can detect that a portion of a memory device needs to be refreshed, and determine that the refresh cycle time is too short for a state of the portion of the memory device. The memory device typically has an associated refresh cycle time or time between refreshes based on the device and system architecture. The control engine can generate one or more control signals to cause the system to apply an overcharge refresh to overcharge the portion of the memory device with a refresh operation to extend the refresh cycle time for the portion of the memory device.

A system monitors and dynamically changes memory mapping in a runtime of a computing system. The computing system has various memory resources, and multiple possible mappings that indicate how data is to be stored in and subsequently accessed from the memory resources. The performance of each memory mapping may be different under different runtime or load conditions of the computing device. A memory controller can monitor runtime performance of the current memory mapping and dynamically change memory mappings at runtime based on monitored or observed performance of the memory mappings. The performance monitoring can be modified for any of a number of different granularities possible within the system, from the byte level to memory channel.
摘要:
A method, device, and system are disclosed. In one embodiment method includes determining a left edge and right edge of a valid data eye for a memory. The method continues by periodically checking the left and right edges for movement during operation of the memory. If movement is detected, the method retrains the valid data eye with an updated left edge and right edge.

In a semiconductor memory chips, a semiconductor memory system, and a method of masking write data, data, command, and address signal streams are serially transmitted in the form of signal frames in accordance with a predefined protocol. The semiconductor memory system and predefined protocol are adapted to transfer write data mask bits in a close relation to respectively associated write data units within one write data/command stream. An interface section between a reception interface and a memory core of the semiconductor memory chip includes a frame decoder and a intermediate data buffer.
摘要:
A method for masking DQ bits that are input into a semiconductor memory by a memory controller is described. In this case, the bits to be masked are provided with an increased level and therefore cannot be read into the semiconductor memory due to the increased voltage level which functions as a deactivating voltage level.

A voltage regulator for one or more dies in a multi-stack integrated circuit includes an inductor located on a die, a voltage controller that is electrically coupled to the inductor and is also located on the die, and a capacitor that is electrically coupled to the inductor and the voltage controller and is also located on the die. The inductor defines an interior space and the voltage controller and the capacitor are located within the interior space of the inductor. The inductor can be a lateral inductor or a through layer via inductor. The multi-stack integrated circuit may have multiple dies. A voltage controller may be electrically coupled to each of the dies, although it may be located on only one of the dies. Alternatively, separate voltage controllers may be electrically coupled to each of the multiple dies and may be located on each of the respective dies.

A mechanism is described for facilitating write tracking for following data eye movements across changing thermal conditions in memory systems according to one embodiment of the invention. A method of embodiments of the invention includes monitoring movements of a valid data eye associated with a memory device of a plurality of memory devices of a memory system at a computing system. The monitoring may include initiating write commands during one or more refresh periods associated with the valid data eye. The method may include determining drifting in the movement of the data eye, and correcting the drifting based on adjusting one or more existing phase interpolator values associated with the movements of the data eye.
