Latest Patents

One of his latest patents focuses on hardware mechanisms for link encryption. This invention discloses methods, systems, and apparatuses associated with hardware mechanisms for link encryption. In various embodiments, an interconnect interface is coupled to a processor core to interconnect a peripheral device to the processor core via a link established between the peripheral device and the interconnect interface. The interconnect interface selects a cryptographic engine from a plurality of cryptographic engines instantiated in the interconnect interface for the link. This cryptographic engine symmetrically encrypts data to be transmitted through the link. In more specific embodiments, each of the plurality of cryptographic engines is instantiated for one of a request type on the link, a virtual channel on the link, or a request type within a virtual channel on the link.

Another significant patent by Teoh involves timer control for peripheral component interconnect express components implemented with Thunderbolt controllers. This invention addresses systems, methods, and devices for controlling power management entry. A PCIe root port controller can be configured to receive a first power management entry request at a downstream port of the root port controller from an upstream switch port. The controller can reject this request and transmit a negative acknowledgement message to the upstream switch port. It then initiates a timer for at least 20 microseconds, during which it ignores any power management entry requests received from the upstream switch port. After the timer expires, the controller can accept a subsequent power management entry request and transmit an acknowledgement of this acceptance to the upstream switch port.
