  • Publication number: 20140244900
    Abstract: A memory module includes an input/output (I/O) interface adapted to fit into a system random access memory (RAM) socket. The module also includes at least one controller coupled to the I/O interface, the controller comprising a plurality of registers, and a plurality of non-volatile memory devices coupled to the controller. In the module, when data is received at the I/O interface, the received data is stored using at least one of the plurality of registers and the controller performs one of a plurality of non-volatile memory operations on at least a portion of the plurality of non-volatile memory devices based on the received data.

  • Patent number: 7733130
    Abstract: A data communications system is disclosed. The data communications system comprises two clock domains. Each of the clock domains are coupled to receive a source clock signal. The first clock domain includes a first clock signal and the second clock domain includes a second clock signal, each of the first clock signal and the second clock signal are derived from the source clock signal. The first clock signal has a frequency which is different from that of the second clock signal. The system includes circuitry configured to generate a pulse indicative of when data transferred between the first clock domain and the second clock domain may be latched. Data is only latched when the pulse is asserted and on a given edge of the first clock signal, and the circuitry is configured to generate the pulse such that the given edge occurs at approximately a position corresponding to a middle of a period of the second clock signal.
