System and methods of selectively managing errors in memory modules. In an exemplary implementation, a method may include monitoring for persistent errors in the memory modules. The methods may also include mapping at least a portion of the memory modules to a spare memory cache only to obviate persistent errors. The method may also include initiating memory erasure on at least a portion of the memory modules only if insufficient cache lines are available in the spare memory cache.

Systems and methods of selectively managing errors in memory modules

Systems and methods for implementing a stride value for memory are provided. One embodiment relates to a system that includes a plurality of memory modules configured to store interleaved data in a plurality of memory storage units according to a predetermined interleave. A memory test device is configured to perform a memory test that accesses a portion of the plurality of memory storage units in a sequence according to a programmable stride value. The memory test device performs the memory test by writing test data to each of the memory storage units in the portion of the plurality of memory storage units and reading the test data from each of the memory storage units in the portion of the plurality of memory storage units.

System and method for implementing a stride value for memory testing

Systems and methods for implementing a stride value for memory are provided. One embodiment includes a system comprising a plurality of memory modules configured to store interleaved data in a plurality of memory storage units according to a predetermined interleave. The plurality of memory storage units can be defined by a memory range of consecutive addresses. The system also comprises a memory test device configured to access a portion of the plurality of memory storage units in a sequence that repeats according to a programmable stride value.

Systems and methods for implementing a stride value for accessing memory

A circuit and system for improving signal integrity in a memory system. The circuit has a transmission line having a dampening impedance between a driver and a branch point of the transmission line. The circuit also has a termination impedance having one end coupled to the transmission line between the dampening impedance and the branch point. The transmission line has branches coupled to memory module interfaces. The branches have respective lengths between the branch point and the memory module interfaces to be configured symmetrically, wherein the branch point is at a point to balance signal transmission on the branches.

Circuit and system for accessing memory modules

A double-high memory system compatible with termination schemes for single-high memory systems. The system includes an interface for input and output of data. A plurality of memory units is configured in two rows. A transmission line couples the plurality of memory units and the interface. The double-high memory system is provided in a non-stacked arrangement.
