Tonia Morris has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11658159
    Abstract: An integrated circuit may include circuitry for accessing an associated die stack. The circuitry may receive temperature information as well as a plurality of operating parameters that help determine whether it may be desirable to reroute access commands or requests to one or more die in the stack. The circuitry may include a smart crossbar switch that implements an address translation or hashing function to help map the logical user address to a physical address space. Performing thermally aware traffic management in this way can ensure that acceptable timing margins are maintained in the system to minimize the probability of errors.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20210149707
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to process data packets for logical and virtual switch acceleration in memory are disclosed. An example memory includes an input packet buffer to store an inbound data packet from a network; an output packet buffer to store an outbound data packet to transmitted via the network; and programmable logic to: read the inbound data packet from the input packet buffer; process the inbound data packet to determine the outbound data packet; and output the outbound data packet to the output packet buffer.

  • Patent number: 10635628
    Abstract: A host controller apparatus for determining information related to a time shift for transmitting instructions on a command and address bus includes an interface for transmitting a plurality of instruction signals to a memory module via the command and address bus and for receiving a loopback feedback signal from the memory module. The host controller apparatus further includes a control module configured to transmit the plurality of instruction signals to the memory module via the command and address bus. The control module is configured to receive the loopback feedback signal from the memory module. The loopback feedback signal includes a looped-back composite version of the plurality of instruction signals. The control module is configured to determine the information related to the time shift for transmitting instructions on the command and address bus based on the loopback feedback signal.
