Abstract:
A clock synchronization circuit includes a delay-locked loop (DLL) and a delay-locked control unit. The DLL is configured to generate an output clock signal by delaying an input clock signal by a delay time, and to execute a delay-locking operation in which the delay time is adjusted to a locked state according to a comparison between the output clock signal and the input clock signal. The delay-locked control unit configured to detect the locked state of the DLL, and to control the DLL based on the determined locked state
Abstract:
A memory device includes a clock receiver configured to receive, from a memory controller, a write clock that is used to receive write data during a data write operation, a duty monitor configured to generate first monitoring information by monitoring a duty of the write clock, and a duty adjuster configured to adjust the duty of the write clock in response to a duty control signal and output an adjusted write clock. The memory device provides the first monitoring information to the memory controller, and receives the duty control signal, generated using the first monitoring information, from the memory controller.
Abstract:
A memory module includes memory devices arranged in ranks and columns and designated in first and second groupings, the first grouping includes memory devices arranged in only a first rank nearest a memory controller and directly connected to the memory controller, the memory devices in the second grouping are indirectly connected to the memory controller via a corresponding memory device in the first grouping arranged in a same column, and each memory device selectively provides either self-data retrieved from a constituent memory core or other-data retrieved from a memory core of another memory device during the read operation.

Abstract:
A method of controlling on-die termination (ODT) in a multi-rank system including a plurality of memory ranks is provided. The method includes: enabling ODT circuits of the plurality of memory ranks into an initial state when the multi-rank system is powered on; enabling the ODT circuits of a write target memory rank and non-target memory ranks among the plurality of memory ranks during a write operation; and disabling the ODT circuit of a read target memory rank among the plurality of memory ranks while enabling the ODT circuits of non-target memory ranks among the plurality of memory ranks during a read operation.
Abstract:
A semiconductor package includes a first layer of one or more first semiconductor chips each having a first surface at which one or more first pads are exposed, a second layer of one or more second semiconductor chips disposed over the first layer and each having a second surface at which one or more second pads are exposed, and a first redistribution layer between the first layer and the second layer and electrically connected to the one or more first pads. The first layer may include one or more first TPVs extending through a substrate (panel) of the first layer and electrically connected to the first redistribution layer.
