20230027926 · 2023-01-26 ·

Methods, systems, and devices related to an improved driver for non-binary signaling are described. A driver for a signal line may include a set of drivers of a first type and a set of drivers of a second type. When the driver drives the signal line using multiple drivers of the first type, at least one additional driver of the first type may compensate for non-linearities associated with one or more other drivers of the first type, which may have been calibrated at other voltages. The at least one additional driver of the first type may be calibrated for use at a particular voltage, to compensate for non-linearities associated with the one or more other drivers of the first type as exhibited at that particular voltage.

Variable width memory module supporting enhanced error detection and correction

Described are memory modules that support different error detection and correction (EDC) schemes in both single- and multiple-module memory systems. The memory modules are width configurable and support the different EDC schemes for relatively wide and narrow module data widths. Data buffers on the modules support the half-width and full-width modes, and also support time-division-multiplexing to access additional memory components on each module in support of enhanced EDC.
