Patent
Source synchronous link integrity validation
TL;DR: In this article, a source synchronous link test that uses a transition weave pattern is presented, where the reflection results from a previous transition on the victim line is used to test the aggressor line.
Patent
System and method for testing signal interconnections using built-in self test
TL;DR: In this paper, a system and method for testing signal interconnections using built-in self test (BIST) functionality is designed into the various chips of a computer system.
Patent
Automated calibration of I/O over a multi-variable eye window
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for automated calibration of I/O over a multi-variable eye window is provided, where a transmitter may conduct data transmissions to a receiver of an integrated circuit (IC) over a plurality of signal lines.
Patent
Source synchronous receiver link initialization and input floating control by clock detection and DLL lock detection
TL;DR: In this paper, a source synchronous receiver may include a clock receiver comprising a clock detector and a clock signal buffer, which is used to detect a first clock signal and assert a clock detect signal responsive to detecting the first signal.
Patent
Digital process monitor
TL;DR: In this article, a digital process monitor for measuring the performance of an integrated circuit has been developed, which includes a ring oscillator that generates a series of clocked pulses, and a ripple counter that counts the pulses.
