Abstract: A system includes a link having one or more lanes associated with transmitting data and one or more lanes associated with transmitting a clock signal. The system includes a device coupled with the link, the device to receive a signal via the one or more lanes associated with transmitting the clock signal and determine a number of pulses associated with the signal over a period. The device is further to determine the number of pulses associated with the signal fail to satisfy a predetermined condition relating to a specified number of pulses for the period and initiate a power-down sequence in response to determining the number of pulses that fail to satisfy the predetermined condition relating to the specified number of pulses for the period.

Abstract: A system includes a first device and a second device coupled to a link having one or more lanes. The first device is to transmit two or more frames to synchronize the one or more data lanes, where each frame comprises a quantity of bits. The second device is to receive a first set of bits from each data lane corresponding to the quantity of bits in each frame of the two or more frames. The second device is to determine that the first set of bits received from a data lane of the one or more data lanes does not correspond to a frame boundary of the two or more frames. The second device is further to synchronize each data lane of the one or more data lanes with respect to the frame boundary, responsive to determining that the first set of bits does not correspond to the frame boundary.

Abstract: Embodiments include a memory device with an improved calibration circuit. Memory device input/output pins include delay lines for adjusting the delay in each memory input/output signal path. The delay adjustment circuitry includes digital delay lines for adjusting this delay. Further, each digital delay line is calibrated via a digital delay line locked loop which enables adjustment of the delay through the digital delay line in fractions of a unit interval across variations due to differences in manufacturing process, operating voltage, and operating temperature. The disclosed techniques calibrate the digital delay lines by measuring both the high phase and the low phase of the clock signal. As a result, the disclosed techniques compensate for duty cycle distortion by combining the calibration results from both phases of the clock signal. The disclosed techniques thereby result in lower calibration error relative to approaches that measure only one phase of the clock signal.

Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer program product for enabling reliable millimeter links in wireless communications systems. One or more beams associated with a plurality of communication paths is trained to determine one or more angles corresponding to the beams at which the beams are received by at least one of a first communication device and a second communication device. Using the determined one or more angles, at least one communication path in the plurality of communication paths is selected for transmission of one or more data packets between the first and second communication devices. Using the selected communication path, one or more data packets are transmitted.

Abstract: Systems and methods relating to determining an address of a user by device location prior to sending a replacement card, the method being performed by a card management computing system associated with a card management entity.
