Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is a technique to interface a display card through an interface connector. A video output device on the display card generates digital video output signals from a graphics chipset on a motherboard. The card is plugged into an interface connector on the motherboard. The interface connector is compatible with a first interface standard. The video output device is compatible to a second interface standard. A card detector is coupled to the video output device and the interface connector to enable the video output device if the graphics chip set supports the video output device.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system are disclosed. In one embodiment the method comprises transmitting Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) Express protocol data on a first set of one or more lanes of a link and concurrently transmitting non-PCI Express protocol data on a second set of one or more lanes of the link.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the invention, a method is provided in which a first clock signal is generated. A second clock signal is derived from the first clock signal. The second clock signal is delayed relative to the first clock signal by a first delay period by a delay locked loop (DLL) circuit. The second clock signal is used to latch incoming data from a memory device.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the invention, a method is provided in which a write strobe signal is generated to latch output data into a memory unit that comprises one or more dual data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR-SDRAM) devices. The write strobe signal has an edge transition at approximately the center of a data window corresponding to the output data. A first receive clock signal is delayed by a first delay period using a delay locked loop (DLL) circuit to generate a first delayed receive clock signal. The first delayed receive clock signal is used to latch incoming data from the memory unit.

Abstract: A disk drive controller which can be programmed for compatibility with a variety of disk drives having differing interface requirements. Information regarding specific characteristics of a disk drive to be installed is loaded into a register in the disk drive controller. Information such as the drives data rate, density, precompensation, physical designation, and mode of operation of a disk drive can be programmed into the register. The interface between the disk drive controller and the disk drive is then configured according to the stored information.
