Patent number: 12197357Abstract: A physical layer (PHY) is coupled to a serial, differential link that is to include a number of lanes. The PHY includes a transmitter and a receiver to be coupled to each lane of the number of lanes. The transmitter coupled to each lane is configured to embed a clock with data to be transmitted over the lane, and the PHY periodically issues a blocking link state (BLS) request to cause an agent to enter a BLS to hold off link layer flit transmission for a duration. The PHY utilizes the serial, differential link during the duration for a PHY associated task selected from a group including an in-band reset, an entry into low power state, and an entry into partial width state.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2021Date of Patent: January 14, 2025Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Robert J. Safranek, Robert G. Blankenship, Venkatraman Iyer, Jeff Willey, Robert Beers, Darren S. Jue, Arvind A. Kumar, Debendra Das Sharma, Jeffrey C. Swanson, Bahaa Fahim, Vedaraman Geetha, Aaron T.

Patent number: 11080212Abstract: A supersequence corresponding to an initialization state is received on a link that includes a repeating pattern of an electrical idle exit ordered set (EIEOS) followed by a number of consecutive training sequences. Instances of the EIEOS are to be aligned with a rollover of a sync counter.
