Arithmetic processing apparatus and control method for arithmetic processing apparatus

A transmitting circuit transmits data to which an error detection code is attached to a receiving circuit via a transmission path. When detecting the error of the data received via the transmission path, a receiving circuit transmits a retransmit request for the data in which the error is detected to the transmitting circuit. The receiving circuit enters a termination unit adjustment period using the error detection of the received data as a trigger and updates the resistance values of a receiving side termination unit installed at the termination of the transmission path to an appropriate value within the termination unit adjustment period.

Transmission device, receiving circuit and control method of transmission device

A clock adjustment circuit delays a phase of a clock signal on the basis of a TAP value so as to output an adjusted clock signal. By synchronizing transmission data with the adjusted clock signal, reception data is generated. A data adjustment circuit delays the transmission data on the basis of a TAP2 value. By synchronizing the delayed transmission data with the adjusted clock signal, adjusted reception data is generated. A data adjustment control circuit generates the TAP2 value on the basis of a result of a comparison between the reception data and the adjusted reception data, and outputs to a clock adjustment control circuit an instruction to update the TAP value.

Information processing apparatus, data reception device and method of controlling the information processing apparatus

A transmission LSI calculates a buffer usage rate in accordance with data stored in a buffer in a transmission data processing unit and determines, in accordance with the calculated buffer usage rate, the number of signal lines that perform a phase readjustment and the timing thereof. Then, the transmission LSI and a receiving LSI perform a phase adjustment using some of the signal lines and continues a data transfer using the rest of the signal lines. Accordingly, it is possible to maintain the optimum phase of a clock without delaying the data transfer.

Data transfer unit, data transmission device, data receiving device, and control method

A data processing device which performs a data transmission between semiconductor devices using a plurality of signal lines. In the data processing device, when there occurs an error in a data transmission from a transmitting device to a receiving device using a plurality of signal lines, data in which the error has occurred is stored. The stored data is compared bit by bit with non-erroneous data, thereby designating a bit in which error has occurred in the stored data.

Error identifying method, data processing device, and semiconductor device

A selection-signal generating circuit in an LSI being a transmission-side LSI, when a transmission error is detected on an A-side signal line and degeneration control is performed thereon, instructs a selector to select an input from an ECC generator in order to transmit data and ECC data for this data to be transmitted via the B-side signal line, via the A-side signal line. In this manner, the degenerated signal line is used to transmit the ECC data for transmission data to be transmitted via a signal line which is not degenerated.

A plurality of units (processing units) connected to a crossbar are divided into a plurality of groups and one is selected from requests selected for each group according to priority among the groups that changes at prescribed time intervals. Thus, the number of times per unit time requests issued from units belonging to a group whose priority is improved at the prescribed time intervals can be maintained over a certain value regardless of a request state.

Arbiter, crossbar, request selection method and information processing device

A configuration is such as to change a mode setup of other crossbars influenced by an error occurring in one of plural crossbars from a first mode to a second mode for operating each of them independently (i.e., in a singularization mode) in the case of placing plural crossbars (i.e., crossbar units) for connecting incorporated units (i.e., processing units) and operating the plural crossbars in the first mode (i.e., a dualized mode) for dualizing them, thereby continuing an operation of a system by using a normally operable part when an error occurs in a part of the system.
