Abstract:
An electronic device may include an applications processor that communicates with a peripheral input-output (I/O) device using a coprocessor. The applications processor may include a first interprocessor communications (IPC) module, whereas the coprocessor may include a second IPC module for interfacing with the first IPC module. The first IPC module may forward a group of transactions to a submission queue and may ring a submission doorbell interrupt to signal that work items are pending in the submission queue. In response, the second IPC module may dequeue the work items from the submission queue and process these items at the I/O device. The second IPC module may provide a group of completed transactions to a completion queue and may ring a completion doorbell interrupt to signal that items are pending in the completion queue. Thereafter, the completed items are forwarded to other parts of the applications processor for processing.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for encoding data are disclosed that may allow for performing periodic calibration operations on a communication link. A controller may determine multiple possible values for a reference voltage used with the communication link based on an initial value. Calibration operations may be performed using each possible value, and the results of the operations scored based on the width of data eyes measured during the calibration operations. The controller may then select a new value for the reference voltage from the multiple possible values dependent upon the scores of each of the multiple possible values.
