Abstract:
An antenna array can be mounted on a flexible substrate and connected by a flexible interconnect to an integrated circuit such as a radio frequency front end. The antenna array can be mounted in a device housing that includes radio frequency interference (RFI) shielding. The antenna array is aligned with and next to an area of the housing that is not shielded against RFI.
Abstract:
The semiconductor module includes a plurality of memory die on a first side of a substrate and a plurality of buffer die on a second side of the substrate. Each of the memory die is disposed opposite and electrically coupled to one of the buffer die.
Abstract:
A communication channel includes a first component having a transmitter coupled to a normal signal source, and a second component having a receiver coupled to a normal signal destination. A communication link couples the first and second components. Calibration logic provides for setting an operation value for a parameter of the communication channel, such as by executing an exhaustive calibration sequence at initialization of the link. A tracking circuit, including a monitoring function, tracks drift in the parameter by monitoring a feedback signal that has a characteristic that correlates with drift in the communication channel, and updates, or indicates the need for updating of, the operation value of the parameter in response to the monitoring function.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a circuit for generating a clock signal to driver a plurality of memory components in a memory subsystern. The clock driver circuit comprises a clock generator for transmitting a clock signal to drive the plurality of memory components, a memory controller for controlling the plurality of memory components, and an adjustable impedance circuit residing within said memory controller such that the adjustable impedance circuit is programmable in accordance with a control input generated by the memory controller. The clock generator is configured to generate a clock signal with a voltage swing controlled by the impedance of the adjustable impedance circuit.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a detachable signalling interconnect apparatus that provides connectivity between two or more components of a memory system in conjunction with different modes of operation of the components. The memory system comprises: a first socket to receive a first memory module; a second socket to receive a second memory module; a detachable signal-interconnect; and a memory controller coupled to the detachable signal-interconnect and configured to define a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation, wherein in the first mode of operation the detachable signal-interconnect is to couple the memory- controller to the first memory module and in the second mode of operation the detachable signal-interconnect is to couple the memory controller to the first memory module and the second memory module.
Abstract:
Angular displacement of a flexible substrate is determined based on an electrical change of a mm-wave circuit associated with the flexible substrate. This electrical change may relate to, for example, one or more of a phase shift, an amplitude shift, a frequency shift, or a pulse shift. In some implementations the flexible substrate may include conductors on multiple layers whereby an angular displacement of the flexible substrate causes a relative displacement between conductors of different layers, thereby inducing the electrical change of the mm-wave circuit.
