Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes four independent single pair Ethernet ports coupled to a cable comprising four wire pairs for communication with a micro-switch, the micro-switch configured for communication with four endpoint devices, each of the endpoint devices in communication with the micro-switch over a single pair Ethernet cable comprising one of the four wire pairs. Each of the four independent single pair Ethernet ports comprises an echo canceller for receiving input from a transmitter at one of the independent single pair Ethernet ports and each of the other independent single pair Ethernet ports to cancel alien crosstalk between the four wire pairs.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a slave device at a master device, determining at the master device if the slave device is configured for I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) or SPE (Single Pair Ethernet) based on an output at the slave device, and selecting an I2C mode of operation at the master device if the slave device is configured for I2C, or selecting an SPE mode of operation at the master device if the slave device is configured for SPE. Data and control are selected from an I2C controller at the master device in the I2C mode of operation and selected from a physical coding sublayer at the master device in the SPE mode of operation.

Abstract: Among other things, dynamically selecting or configuring one or more hardware resources to render a particular display data includes obtaining a request for rendering display data. The request includes a specification describing a desired rendering process. Based on the specification and the display data, hardware is selected or configured. The display data is rendered using the selected or configured hardware.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for switching between different video processing modes in an apparatus. In a first mode, minimal processing of the video frames may be performed by the apparatus prior to feeding the frames to a display controller. In a second mode, the apparatus may perform additional rendering of the video frames including compositing of other graphical input with the rendered video frames to generate display frames that may be fed to the display controller. To conserve power, the apparatus may operate in or switch to the first mode when the additional rendering and compositing is not required or when the device is in a low power mode, and operate in or switch to the second mode when the additional rendering and compositing is required to render desired graphical effects.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed which can perform cable characterization at link-up and during in-service monitoring to provide the best data throughput. In some embodiments a plurality of frequency tones may be sent across a cable to a remote system. A plurality of return loss values associated with sending the plurality of frequency tones may then be measured and stored. Next, a crosstalk value across the cable may be computed. A quality value for the cable may then be determined based on at least the plurality of return loss values and the crosstalk value.

Abstract: A plurality of asynchronous command streams are established. A first command stream shares a common resource with a second command stream. A synchronization object is incorporated into the first command stream. A central server arbitrates serialization of the first and second command streams using the synchronization object. The central server arbitrates serialization without direct communication between the first and second command streams.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for notifying a display driver to update a display with a graphics frame including multiple graphics data rendered separately by multiple graphics processing units (GPUs) substantially concurrently are described. Graphics commands may be received to dispatch to each GPU for rendering corresponding graphics data. The display driver may be notified when each graphics data has been completely rendered respectively by the corresponding GPU.
