Abstract: A Registered DIMM (RDIMM) system with reduced electrical loading on the data bus for increases memory capacity and operation frequency. In one embodiment, the data bus is buffered on the DIMM. In another embodiment, the data bus is selectively coupled to a group of memory chips via switches.

Abstract: A method for generating a read enable signal which is for controlling reading of a pair of data strobe signals and a data signal in a memory system is provided. The method comprises: detecting whether the pair of data strobe signals are both high or low; and generating the read enable signal if the pair of data strobe signals are detected being both high or low. Because the read enable signal is generated using the pair of strobe signals, DLL can be turned off, thus the power consumption of the memory system can be reduced. In addition, the read enable signal is self-aligned with a certain point of the pair of strobe signals, this may enhance precision of the transmission of the pair of strobe signals and the data signal.

Abstract: The present application provides a memory module. The memory module includes one or more volatile memory devices, one or more non-volatile memory devices, and a data exchange controller. The data exchange controller controls data exchange between the volatile memory devices and the non-volatile memory devices.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses to calibrate read/write memory accesses through data buses of different lengths via advanced memory buffers. One embodiment includes an advanced memory buffer (AMB) having: a plurality of ports to interface respectively with a plurality of data buses; a port to interface with a common clock bus for the plurality of data buses; and an adjustable circuit coupled with the plurality of ports to level delays on the plurality of data buses. In one embodiment, the data buses have different wire lengths between the dynamic random access memory (DRAM) memory chips and the advanced memory buffer (AMB).

Abstract: Integrated circuits have expanded a set of custom registers and a read mechanism for control registers. One embodiment includes a circuit having a first set of registers; a second set of registers to be written via one or more write operations addressed to one or more registers of the first set; and a read controller coupled with the first and second sets of registers, the read controller to selectively output a portion of data stored in the first and second sets of registers based on data stored in one or more registers of the second set. In one embodiment, the circuit further includes a logic block; and a multiplexer to select from an output of the logic block and an output of the read controller as an output of the circuit based on the data stored in the one or more registers of the second set.
