  • Implementing Bus Interface Calibration for Enhanced Bus Interface Initialization Time
    Publication number: 20090327562
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for implementing bus interface calibration to improve bus interface initialization time in a system. Bus interface calibration is performed and average calibration values are saved. At bus interface initialization time, checking for saved calibration values is performed. The saved calibration values are used and tested. When the saved calibration values pass the test, then the saved calibration values are used for system operation without performing any training steps.
