Abstract: A system provides DO-level sparing to spare a fault of a data signal (DQ) line of a memory bus. The data bus has multiple data dynamic random access memory (DRAM) devices and at least one error correction code (ECC) DRAM device coupled to it. An error manager can be in the memory controller or in a platform error controller. The error manager to detect a DQ failure and dynamically switches ECC mode on the fly. The error manager can map out data bits of the DQ and remap ECC bits of the at least one ECC DRAM device to the mapped out data bits of the DQ.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for on-package accelerator complex (AC) for integrating accelerator and IOs for scalable RAN and edge cloud solutions. The AC comprises one or more dies including an IO interface tile that is coupled to multiple intellectual property (IP) blocks that may be integrated on the same die as the IO interface tile or separate dies that are coupled to the IO interface tile via die-to-die or chiplet-to-chiplet interconnects. The IP blocks may include a network interface (e.g., Ethernet) and one or more accelerators. The package further includes a central processing unit (CPU) that is coupled to the AC via a die-to-die or chiplet-to-chiplet interconnect. The IO interface tile includes integrated shared scratchpad memory that is shared among the IP blocks and the CPU cores. The IO interface tile further includes an interface controller for scheduling IP blocks and configuring data transfers between the IP blocks, such as used by a RAN pipeline.

Abstract: A system includes a processor coupled to an integrated circuit. The processor includes a non-volatile memory to store instructions to perform a boot process. The boot process is discontinued to prevent unauthorized use of the processor if a value received from the integrated circuit in response to a first value sent to the integrated is not valid.
