  • Patent number: 11321157
    Abstract: A digital system and a method of operating a digital system wherein the digital system has a digital resource and an event detector detect events of the digital resource. An operational mode of at least one of the system and the digital resource in effect during an interval is determined and a number of events that occur during the interval is accumulated. The accumulated events are compared against at least one threshold associated with the operational mode and action is taken if the comparison indicates an out-of-nominal operation of the digital resource.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10360096
    Abstract: Data is sent from a memory buffer device to a host device over a link. An error in the data is determined. A read response cancellation signal is sent to the host device to indicate the error to the host device, where the read response cancellation signal is to be sent subsequent to the data being sent from the memory buffer device to the host device.

  • Patent number: 10061719
    Abstract: A plurality of completed writes to memory are identified corresponding to a plurality of write requests from a host device received over a buffered memory interface. A completion packet is sent to the host device that includes a plurality of write completions to correspond to the plurality of completed writes.

  • Publication number: 20170322841
    Abstract: Data is sent from a memory buffer device to a host device over a link. An error in the data is determined. A read response cancellation signal is sent to the host device to indicate the error to the host device, where the read response cancellation signal is to be sent subsequent to the data being sent from the memory buffer device to the host device.
