    摘要: Systems and methods of retraining a receiver provide for determining a minimum transition density for a derived clock data link to the receiver. A retraining flit is generated based on the minimum transition density. In one approach, the retraining flit is generated by defining control data and payload data for the retraining flit. Error detection data is determined for the retraining flit based on the control and the payload data. The control data, the payload data and the error detection data have sufficient transitions to meet the minimum transition density.

    摘要: The current method and apparatus provides a novel approach to manage the power consumption of a high speed I/O interface by selectively turning off non-essential portions of the interface. Here only part of the interface is powered off as compared to the whole interface being turned off. From the upper layers (protocol/system) perspective, the interface is always “on”. Thus, this mechanism reduces link power by selectively turning off portions of the link, yet allowing for fast wake up in an interface power management architecture.

    摘要: Multiple initialization techniques for system and component in a point-to-point architecture are discussed. Consequently, the techniques allow for flexible system/socket layer parameters to be tailored to the needs of the platform, such as, desktop, mobile, small server, large server, etc., as well as the component types such as IA32/IPF processors, memory controllers, IO Hubs, etc. Furthermore, the techniques facilitate powering up with the correct set of POC values, hence, it avoids multiple warm resets and improves boot time. In one embodiment, registers to hold new values, such as, Configuration Values Driven during Reset (CVDR), and Configuration Values Captured during Reset (CVCR) may be eliminated. For example, the POC values could be from the following: Platform Input Clock to Core Clock Ratio, Enable/disable LT, Configurable Restart, Burn In Initialization Mode, Disable Hyper Threading, System BSP Socket Indication, and Platform Topology Index.

    摘要: Layout-aware modular decoupled crossbar and router for on-chip interconnects and associated micro-architectures and methods of operation. A crossbar and router architecture called MoDe-X (Modular Decoupled Crossbar) is disclosed that supports 5-port routing for use in 2D mesh interconnects and is implemented through use of decoupled row and column sub-crossbar modules in combination with feeder wiring and control logic that enables routing between ports on the row and column sub-crossbar modules. The corresponding MoDe-X router supports 5-port routing between various router input and output port combinations while reducing both router area and power consumption when compared with a conventional 5×5 crossbar design and implementation. The MoDe-X micro-architecture can be configured to support both single and dual local port injection configurations.
