Mad Men showrunner Matthew Weiner has spoken for the first and last time on the epic seven-season show's finale. While he touched on plenty of the big moments and multiple characters' endings, his comment on naysayers is what we loved the most.Read Full Story
Pretty much since we were given the first inkling of a hint that Mad Men couldn't last forever and would eventually end, fans have been speculating about how it would all go down. There were plenty of wild theories and most of them turned out to be wrong... one truly feminist hope for the show proved (almost) right, however.Read Full Story
He's part gifted con man, part devilishly handsome ladies' man and 100 percent damaged goods. He's been an enigma to us throughout the entire seven-season run of Mad Men, and his colossal dysfunction ever so slowly opened the door to our fascination with him.Read Full Story
The very last promo for Mad Men has arrived and the world is in meltdown mode. It's nostalgic, sure. But it's also completely useless... as always. Which reminds me just how glad I am to say goodbye to the show... if only because I'm so over the showrunner.Read Full Story
With only three episodes until the end of Mad Men, Peggy really kicked her feminist mentality into overdrive last night and honestly, we're feeling pretty inspired by her railing against the aftereffects for women after a one-night stand.Read Full Story

Tools & Resources
The whole point of life insurance is that you never know when you'll need it. So even though your policy might be long-term, you need to make sure it offers the right amount of benefits for your current situation.
A good rule of thumb is to recalculate your life insurance needs once a year, or more often if there's a major change in your life.
Whether you're married or single, it's good to know that your finances will be resolved if you should die unexpectedly. That could mean paying off loans or a mortgage, and it's especially important if you have a lot of debt or want your family to keep living in your home.
Take another look at your policy when:
You'll want to know that your family's financial needs will be covered if you're no longer able to provide for them. You'll need the most life insurance when your kids are growing-enough to last them until they become adults and cover their college education. This is even more important if you're the main breadwinner.
Consider raising or lowering your coverage when:
The general rule for life insurance is that your policy's "death benefit" (the amount that gets paid to your beneficiaries if you die) should pay seven times your annual salary. The idea is that as your salary changes, your family's lifestyle changes to match. If you're self-employed or own a business, you might also have business-related expenses to cover.
Think about adjusting your policy when:
If you're ready to hit the road on your new two-wheeler, call Allstate to protect yourself and your bike. Get an easy no-obligation quote, call us at 1-877-379-BIKE (2453), or find an agent near you. Are you in Good Hands?

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Loulla-Mae Eleftheriou-Smith, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Wednesday, 22 December 2010 10:45AM
The ads, created in-house, will run on all national radio stations, as well as Spotify and we7 from today (22 December). The push forms part of the integrated "Gio Compario" campaign.
The radio spots start with spoof advertisements for fictional product, such as spray-on socks, which are interrupted by the Gocompare.com character singing that users "will thank their stars" after using the site.
Nicholas Hall, head of marketing at Gocompare.com, said: "The Gio campaign has been a huge success and resulted in real results for the company in terms of an uplift in traffic to the site and, ultimately, in quote volumes.
"The character is so recognisable and viewers or listeners have got used to him popping up in random situations, but we have evolved the format and taken the element of surprise that one step further.
"The ads have very little actual Gocompare branding in them, but play on that brand recognition that Gio now has with any audience."
Running alongside the radio ad, Gocompare.com last week announced the launch of a TV ad on Christmas Day, that pays homage to the silent movie era, where Gio Compario will not sing.
Nick Hall, head of marketing at Gocompare.com, said: "We're giving viewers a break from Gio's amazing voice in the TV adverts this Christmas with our salute to the silent movies."

This lone dwarf iris was the only one blooming in the bed. A number of the typical spring bulbs have bloomed in much reduced numbers this year, after a long, hard winter. Only the daffodils and the scilla seem to be going strong.

Gannett (NYSE: GCI) is ending the week before its Q1 earnings report on a high note, with its stock up nearly 40 percent to $3.75 on Thursday. But the company has been laying the ground for what has been shaping to be a painful report. An analysts consensus from FactSet Research anticipates the McLean, Va.-publisher of USA Today to post a per-share profit of $0.28 on revenue of $1.47 billion, Marketwatch reported. Last year, Gannett posted what at the time looked like a fairly weak Q108 profit of $0.84 on $1.7 billion in revenue.
— You've been warned: Gannett has already warned that it was facing a 30 percent decline in ad sales for the most recent quarter. The company also told investors that it expects to end 2009 with $100 million in capital expenditures. The company has been trimming staff by the thousands since last year and has continues to cut salaries by slashing wages and an imposing unpaid furloughs.
— Vote of confidence: While those cost-saving efforts haven't really done much for the stock lately, the share price got a boost from two announcements this week. In an SEC filing on Thursday, Gannett announced that investor Ariel Capital Management increased its stake in to roughly 12.5 percent of Gannett's outstanding shares — more than double its previous 4.9 percent holding. Ariel is known for investing in companies it views as undervalued, so the increase in its holdings was viewed as a strong vote of confidence. Secondly, Gannett got some breathing room on its debt payments. In an 8-K filing, Gannett said it extended some of its notes due next two years out to 2015 and 2016.

MONDAY, Feb. 21 (HealthDay News) -- People with ragweed allergies who live in northern climates aren't imaging that their misery is lasting longer and longer each year.
New research suggests that for people living in some northern U.S. states, the length of ragweed season has gotten longer by more than two weeks, and for people living in some areas of Canada, the ragweed season has stretched by nearly a month.
"This study is a confirmation of what the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has been projecting. We've gone from a theoretical projection of changes in the timing of ragweed season, to boots on the ground starting to see it happen," said study author Lewis Ziska, a plant physiologist at the Agricultural Research Service at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in Beltsville, Md.
"This is a caution light. Pollen seasons may be getting longer, and climate change may have health implications as well," he said.
Ziska's findings are published in this week's online issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Ragweed allergies are very common in the United States. At least one in 10 people in the United States is sensitive to ragweed pollen, according to background information in the study. For people who have any type of allergy, about 27 percent have a ragweed sensitivity.
And, the study reports, the prevalence of allergic disease has been increasing in the United States over the past three decades. Exactly why is unclear, but many experts suspect that changes in the global climate may be causing longer pollen seasons, which increase the duration of exposure to allergens.
If this theory were true, said Ziska, then it would make sense that the length of the ragweed pollen season -- which is dependent on warm, but not too hot, temperatures -- would be getting shorter in southern latitudes and longer in northern latitudes.

"It was just night and day from the last couple games," junior big man Akil Mitchell said after the Cavaliers humbled the Seminoles 56-36 at John Paul Jones Arena.

Campaign-Sign Theft and Vandalism: Are People in Our Community Really That Immature?
I know it's kind of hard to believe, but we're only a couple weeks from the election. Now, I haven't counted the number of political campaign signs I see on a daily basis; but, especially this close to the election, I know I see a lot. A whole lot. Well, apparently, some people in Larimer County can't just leave those signs alone, and instead are stealing or vandalizing the ones they don't agree with. Really? Really?

41 year old man | Fort Lauderdale, FL, USA | Seeking women 28-42 within 50 miles
Only need one good one.
I guess this is where I get to talk about myself? Well, I guess let me start off with what I am not. I am not lazy, I am not unemployed, I am not looking for a booty call or just some random hook up and I am not a liar. What I am though is someone who is looking for someone that I can get to know and hopefully it leads into something more. Although I dont think anyone is perfect. I feel that it is our imperfections which make us all unique, I do feel that there is someone out there that is perfect for me. I am a Daddy to a 7 year old boy which spends 95% of his free time with me. I say Daddy cause I think any man can father a child but it takes a Daddy to truly be there and raise him to be a man one day. There is nothing I wouldn't do for my son and he is and always will be my first priority. The woman I would like to find is someone that is ambitious and fun with a good sense of humor. Someone that loves to laugh and that knows how to love. Someone that will be there for me and that I can be there for them as well. I wont say someone that doesn't play games cause games can be fun just not those that deal with feelings and emotions. I would like someone that takes pride in her appearance and that also doesn't mind getting dirty. I love all kinds of music but my favorites would be country and rock. So hopefully this gives you a little info about me and makes you interested in knowing more. So if you are interested, take a chance and we can see what can happen...

Fraudulent petition seeks organization of Loving County
On this day in 1893, the organizers of the Loving Canal and Irrigation Company filed a petition with the Reeves County Commissioners Court requesting separate organization for Loving County. In 1887 the Texas legislature had separated Loving County from Tom Green County, but it remained attached to Reeves County for judicial purposes. Loving County is the only Texas county to be organized twice. The first organization appears to have been a scheme to defraud on the part of the organizers. Although the 1890 United States census reported a population of only three in Loving County, the petition filed with the Reeves County Commissioners Court three years later was signed by 150 allegedly qualified voters. In the ensuing county election eighty-three votes were reported, and county organization was approved. In the spring of 1894, however, only three people were found to be living in Mentone, the county seat. Loving County reportedly held a second election of county officials in November 1894, but there is evidence that neither election was legitimate. The legislature deorganized Loving County in 1897, reattaching it to Reeves County. After Mentone was abandoned in 1897, no town existed in Loving County. The 1900 census reported a county population of eleven females and twenty-two males, all white. With the discovery of oil in the county in the 1920s, the population grew, and the county was organized a second time in 1931. The oil town of Ramsey was renamed Mentone and became the county seat.

23 year old man | Clear Lake City, TX, USA | Seeking women 18-22 within 20 miles
Sometimes it takes a painful experience for a man to change his ways.
I work a lot most weeks. I'm an iron worker for Turner Industries. But I make time in my life for family, friends and fun though. :) I have a puppy named Sammy and I love him with all my heart. So if you want me you get him too. I'm mainly looking for someone to fill this gap in my life. Someone who can make me smile while at the same time put up with my smart ass comments. I feel like I have an awesome life and everything is going great for me but to me I don't see the actual point to it all if I don't have someone I can share it with.
Camping , Fishing/Hunting , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Video games , Watching sports
Billiards / Pool, Running, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I have Dogs
I like Cats
I love music. All music really. From the 40's to now. But if I had to pick an absolute favorite it would have to be Country. It seems to me that Country music has the most songs that I myself can really relate to.
I enjoy traveling, hiking, running, surfing, photography, watching sports and video games. I mean of course I enjoy a lot more but I think that list will do for now. :)

Come Worship the Lord
Michael Card
Come, worship the Lord
For we are His people
The flock that He shepherds
Come, let us sing to the Lord
And shout with joy to the Rock Who saves us
Let us come with thanksgiving
And sing joyful songs to the Lord
The Lord is God, the Mighty God
The great King for all the gods
He holds in His hands the depths of the Earth
And the highest mountains as well
He made the sea, it belongs to Him
The dry land too, is formed by His hand
Come, let us bow down and worship
Bending the knee for the Lord our Maker
For we are His people
We are the flock that He shepherds

About the BookRotterham Home was a hospice for young people, a place where teenagers with terminal illnesses went to die. Nobody who checked in ever checked out. It was a place of pain and sorrow, but also, remarkably, a place of humor and adventure. At the hospice was a group of five young men and women who called themselves the Midnight Club. Every night at twelve they met and told each other stories--tales of intrigue and horror, of life and death. True stories, made-up stories, and stories that fell somewhere in between.
But one night, in the middle of a particularly scary story, these five people make a pact with each other that says that the first one of them who dies is to make every effort to contact the others--from beyond the grave.
Then one of them does die.
And the story begins.
The most wonderful story.
The most horrible.

wow.. missed some driver team changes... VIA WRC
Seven world champions, six winners of world championship rallies, a double European title-holder and the inaugural FIA WRC Academy Cup champion are among those set to tackle the motorsport showpiece from 17-22 January.
Sebastien Loeb, world rally champion for the past eight seasons, heads the entry in his Citroen Total World Rally Team DS3 WRC. Joining him in the French squad is new team-mate Mikko Hirvonen, who switched from Ford during the close-season. Highly rated Belgian Thierry Neuville will compete in a privateer DS3.
Finn Jari-Matti Latvala heads Fords challenge in a Fiesta RS WRC alongside Petter Solberg, who returns to the Blue Oval for the first time since 2000. A further six Fiesta RS WRCs will also be in action on the asphalt event with former Monte Carlo winner Francois Delecour the pick of the bunch in his private entry.
Spaniard Dani Sordo continues to front MINIs WRC bid although regular team-mate Kris Meekes seat has been taken by emerging French star Pierre Campana. British talent Meeke remains part of MINIs world championship effort but his programme for 2012 has yet to be finalised.
Portugals Armindo Araujo and Brazilian Paulo Nobre will pilot a brace of privateer MINIs, meaning there will be a total of 16 World Rally Cars in action.
As well as counting as round one of the 2012 WRC, Rallye Monte-Carlo is also the first round of this seasons Super 2000 World Rally Championship. Inaugural WRC Academy champion Craig Breen will be among the frontrunners in his Fiesta, while double Junior world champion PG Andersson and twice European champion Giandomenico Basso form Protons factory line-up.
Pole Michal Kosciuszko and Italian Lorenzo Bertelli are among those in contention for Production Car World Rally Championship honours.
Other notable runners include seven-time WRC event winner Sebastien Ogier in a Volkswagen Motorsport-run Skoda Fabia, former Junior championship ace Kevin Abbring and last years Rallye Monte-Carlo winner Bryan Bouffier

Ukraine's acting president called for the relaunch of an anti-terrorist operation in the east of the country on Tuesday after the body of a local politician from his own party was found showing signs of torture.
Oleksander Turchinov said in a statement that "brutally tortured" bodies had been found near the city of Slaviansk, which is in the hands of pro-Russian militants. One was that of Volodymyr Rybak, a member of Turchinov's Batkivshchyna party, who had recently been abducted by "terrorists."
"These crimes are being carried out with the full support and indulgence of the Russian Federation," he said. "I call on the security agencies to relaunch and carry out effective anti-terrorist measures, with the aim of protecting Ukrainian citizens living in eastern Ukraine from terrorists."

Described is a memory system in which the memory core organization changes with device width. The number of physical memory banks accessed reduces with device width, resulting in reduced power usage for relatively narrow memory configurations. Increasing the number of logic memory banks for narrow memory widths reduces the likelihood of bank conflicts, and consequently improves speed performance.
1. A memory apparatus comprising:
a register to hold width selection information;
an interface to exchange data with a remote device;
a plurality of memory subsections, each subsection including columns of memory cells coupled to corresponding sense amplifiers; and
routing coupling the memory subsections with the interface, the routing supporting first and second width configurations responsive to the width selection information;
in the first width configuration, the routing conveys data of a first data width between a first integer number of the memory subsections and the interface, and the plurality of memory subsections collectively provide a first memory depth, and
in the second width configuration, the routing conveys data of a second data width between a second integer number of the memory subsections and the interface, and the plurality of memory subsections collectively provide a second memory depth;
wherein the memory apparatus loads the sense amplifiers in the first number of the memory subsections for read operations in the first width configuration and loads the sense amplifiers in the second number of memory subsections for read operations in the second width configuration.
2. The memory apparatus of
a command interface to receive memory commands, the memory commands including address information;
decode logic to receive and to decode the address information and the width selection information, to produce decoded information; and

in the second width configuration, data is conveyed on the first data line but not the second data line.
12. The memory apparatus of
the memory apparatus further comprises first and second data pins;
the memory apparatus further comprises a crossbar switch coupling the first and second data pins with the first data line; and
the crossbar switch is to couple the first data line with a selective one of the first data pin or the second data pin.

17. A method for accessing memory having a plurality of memory subsections, each subsection including columns of memory cells coupled to corresponding sense amplifiers, the method comprising:
programming a register to store width selection information indicative of at least two data widths, including a first data width and a second data width;
receiving, at a command interface, a memory command including address information;
loading, based on the address information, the sense amplifiers in a first integer number of the plurality of memory subsections if the width selection information is indicative of the first data width and in a second number of the plurality of memory subsections if the width selection information is indicative of the second data width; and
responsively conveying data to or from the sense amplifiers in the first integer number of the plurality of memory subsections if the width selection information is indicative of the first data width, the first integer number of the plurality of memory subsections collectively providing a first memory depth, and to or from the sense amplifiers in the second integer number of the plurality of memory subsections if the width selection information is indicative of the second data width, the plurality of memory subsections collectively providing a second memory depth.

responsively conveying data to or from the second number of the plurality of memory subsections if the width selection information is indicative of the second data width includes conveying data to or from the first data line but not the second data line.
27. The method of
conveying data to or from the first data line includes using the crossbar switch to convey data to a selective one of the first data pin or the second data pin.
28. A memory comprising:
an interface to exchange data with a remote device;
a plurality of memory subsections, each memory subsection including columns of memory cells coupled to corresponding sense amplifiers;
means for storing width selection information;
means for routing data from different numbers of the memory subsections to the interface responsive to the width selection interface; and
means for reconfiguring logical organization of the memory subsections depending on the width selection information, such that the number of sense amplifiers loaded for each memory access varies in dependence on memory width.

Motherboard 105 includes a memory controller 125 connected via conductive traces 130 to connectors 110. Memory controller 125 communicates with memory modules 115 through conductive traces 130. Memory controller 125 also has an interface (not shown) that communicates with other components on the motherboard, allowing those components to read from and write to memory.
Each memory module 115 typically contains a fixed-width data path interface. The fixed-width nature of the interface is generally a result of a desire to create an industry standard interface that can accommodate interoperable modules from a large number of suppliers.
System 100 works with different numbers of memory modules 115 installed, and with modules having different memory capacities and/or organizations. However, a system such as this is normally designed for a specific system data path width, i.e., for a specified number of data bit lines from controller 125 to memory modules 115.
Memory devices can be targeted to a wide variety of markets with very different sets of cost and performance constraints; consequently, the optimal device width can vary significantly from one application to the next. Unfortunately, these variations make it difficult for memory suppliers and distributors to accurately predict the customer demand mix for memory devices of various widths. Inaccuracies in demand-mix prediction can cause supply/demand imbalances and inventory management difficulties, which in turn can lead to pricing instability and highly variable profit margins. Furthermore, a memory device manufacturer may find that optimizing the cost for each target device width means a different design at the die level and potentially at the package level. This can increase the time-to-market and level of financial and engineering resources required to deliver each of these products to market.
Fixed-width devices have other drawbacks related to inflexible data path configuration. Because the system memory interface width and memory device interface widths are fixed, the addition of more memory devices or modules to the system typically requires multiple ranks, which generally necessitates the use of a multi-drop datapath topology. Adding more drops to the system tends to degrade signaling performance.
One way to reduce time-to-market and resource requirements is to create a common die design and package pinout that can support a variety of device data path widths. Some memory manufacturers support this capability through memory designs that allow configurations to be postponed until relatively late in the manufacturing process. A configuration is typically selected through one of several possible schemes, such as fuse or anti-fuse programmability, wire-bonding options, or upper level metal mask changes. This flexibility allows the device to be tested at the target width and sold as a fixed-width device.
Another way to reduce time-to-market and resource requirements associated with fixed-width memories is to use a memory design in which the width (e.g., the number of data pins) can be dynamically changed to suit the needs of a particular system. One such memory design is depicted in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 5,893,927 to William P. Hovis, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Besides the commands of /CS, /RAS, /CAS and /W, command decoder 210 also recognizes commands based on a combination of /CS, /RAS, /CAS, and /W. For instance, command decoder 210 decodes the simultaneous receipt of /CS, /RAS, /CAS, and /W as a mode register set command. When a mode register set command is received, control logic 215 causes a mode register 220 to latch the address data on address inputs A0-A10 and BA0-BA1.
The data on address inputs A0-A10, generally, represent either a row or column address, whereas the data on address inputs BA0-BA1, generally, represent a bank address. The bank address inputs BA0-BA1 specify one of the memory banks A-D discussed in detail below. During the mode register set operation, however, the data on address inputs A0-A10 and BA0-BA1 represent commands. Hereinafter, the address inputs and the data thereon will generically be referred to as address inputs.
SDRAM 200 includes a row address buffer and refresh counter 225 and a column address buffer and burst counter 230, both of which connect to address inputs A0-A10 and BA0-BA1. The row address buffer portion latches the address inputs at row-access-strobe (RAS) time and provides the row address to the appropriate row decoder 235. The refresh counter portion refreshes the memory. The column address buffer portion latches the address inputs at column-access-strobe (CAS) time and provides the column address to the appropriate column decoder 240. The burst counter portion controls the reading/writing of more than one column based on a pre-set burst length.
The memory of SDRAM 200 is divided into four memory banks A-D that can be independently and simultaneously selected. Each memory bank A-D has associated therewith a row decoder 235, a sense amplifier 255, and a column decoder 240. Based on the address latched by the row address buffer and refresh counter 225, one of row decoders 235 enables a row of bits in the corresponding bank. An associated sense amplifier 255 latches the columns of this row via sense amplification, and the associated column decoder 240 outputs one or more bits depending on the device width and burst length. Sense amplifier 255 typically represents a combination of column I/O amplifiers arranged along an edge of the array of banks and lower-level sense amplifiers interleaved between memory cells.
SDRAM 200 includes configuration logic 260 for setting the device width. Configuration logic 260 connects to mode register 220, and from there receives a memory-width configuration value stored in register 220 during device configuration. Based on this information, configuration logic 260 configures a data control circuit 265, a latch circuit 270, and an input/output (I/O) buffer 275 to obtain the device width associated with the memory-width configuration value. Specifically, configuration logic 260 controls switches and multiplexers in data control circuit 265 such that the number of active I/O drivers corresponds to the programmed device width.
Data control circuit 265 is connected to each column decoder 240, and to data I/O pin(s) DQ(s) via latch circuit 270 and input/output buffer 275. During a read operation, sense amplifiers 255 and column decoders 240 output data to data control circuit 265 based on the row enabled by decoder 235, the column enabled by decoder 240, and the burst length. Data control circuit 265 then routes the data to the number of I/O drivers set based on the device width. The data from the I/O drivers is then latched by the latch circuit 270, buffered by I/O buffer 275, and output on the data I/O pin(s) DQ(s). The number of I/O pin(s) DQ(s) corresponds to the device width.
During a write operation, SDRAM 200 receives data over the I/O pin(s) DQ(s). This data is buffered by I/O buffer 275, latched by latch circuit 270, and received by data control circuit 265. Data control circuit 265 sends the data to the appropriate column decoders 240 for storage in the memory banks A-D according to the enabled row and column.
SDRAM 200 also includes an input DQM to latch circuit 270 for every 8 bits of input/output. For instance a x16 SDRAM will have two inputs DQM0 and DQM1. When enabled, the input DQM prevents reading or writing the remainder of a burst. In this manner, the burst length can be controlled.
Each read operation presents an entire row of data to sense amps 255. Each write operation similarly involves an entire row. In SDRAM 200, changing the memory width merely changes the number of bits selected from the accessed row: the narrower the memory configuration, the fewer bits are selected from the accessed row. Since the power required to perform a row access does not change with changes in device width, the relative power efficiency of row accesses reduces with memory width.
Much of the operation of memory 300 is similar to SDRAM 200 of
Memory 300 includes a configurable memory core 305. In the example, memory core 305 includes eight physical memory banks PB0-PB7, though the number of physical banks may vary according to need. Physical banks PB0-PB7 are interconnected such that they can be combined to form different numbers of logical banks. In the example, pairs of physical banks (e.g., PB0 and PB1) can be combined to form four logical banks LB0-LB3, collections of four physical banks (e.g., PB0-PB3) can be combined to form two logical banks LB4 and LB5, and all eight physical banks can be combined to form a single logical bank LB0-7. Assuming, for simplicity, that each physical bank PB0-PB7 includes a single data I/O terminal, memory core 305 can be configured as a one-bit-wide memory with eight logical banks, a two-bit-wide memory with four logical banks, a four-bit-wide memory with two logical banks, or an eight-bit-wide memory with one logical bank.
Some configuration logic 310 controls the configuration of memory core 305 via a data control circuit 315. Configuration logic 310 also controls the data width through a collection of latches 320 and a collection of I/O buffers 325. As detailed below, data control circuit 315 includes some data routing logic, such as a crossbar switch, to provide flexible routing between the memory banks and data terminals DQs. The purpose and operation of these blocks is described below in more detail. As noted in
The components of core 400 are similar to like-numbered elements in
In the one-bit wide configuration, device data line D0 can be routed to/from any of the four physical banks PB0-PB3. In the 2-bit wide configuration ("x2 "), device data lines DQ0 and DQ1 can be routed to/from physical banks PB0 and PB1 (collectively, logical bank LB0,1) or physical banks PB2 and PB3 (collectively logical banks LB2,3). Finally, in the 4-bit wide configuration, device data lines DQ0, DQ1, DQ2, and DQ3 can be routed to/from respective physical banks PB0, PB1, PB2, and PB3 (collectively, logical bank LB0-3). Core 400 can thus be configured as a one-, two-, or four-bank memory with respective widths of four (x4), two (x2), and one (x1) data bits.
Core 400 is a synchronous memory; consequently, each physical bank PB0-PB3 includes an input latch 405 and an output latch 410. Physical banks PB0-PB3 additionally include respective memory arrays MA0-MA3, sense amplifiers SA0-SA3, and bank-select terminals BS1-BS3. Asserting a bank select signal on one of terminals BS1-BS3 loads the data in the addressed location within the selected memory array into the respective one of sense amplifiers SA1-1A3.
Latch 320 includes a pair of latches 415 and 420 for each physical bank PB0-PB3. Data control circuit 315 includes five multiplexers 425, 430, 435, 440, and 445 that communicate data between latch 320 and physical banks PB0-PB3. Multiplexers 425 and 430 are controlled by a write control signal WB; multiplexer 435 is controlled by a read control signal RA; multiplexer 440 is controlled by a write control signal WA; and multiplexer 445 is controlled by two read control signals RA and RB. Write control signals WA and WB and read control signals RA and RB are based on the selected data path width and bits of the requested memory address or transfer phase. Configuration logic 310 (
Table 1 shows the control values used for data path slice widths of one, two, and four. Table 1 also indicates which of data terminals D0-D3 are used for each data width.
When a width of one is selected during a read operation, the configuration logic 310 allows data from any one of the four physical banks PB0-PB3 to be presented at data terminal DQ0. Control signals RA and RB determine which data-bit signals will be presented at any given time. Control signals RA and RB are set (at this data width) to equal the two least-significant bits (A1, AO) of the memory address corresponding to the current read operation.
When a width of one is selected during a write operation, the circuit accepts the data bit signal from data terminal DQ0 and routes it to all four physical banks PB0-PB3 simultaneously. Control signals WA and WB are both set to a logical value of one to produce this routing. Other logic circuits (not shown) within configuration logic 310 control which of input latches 405 and 410 are active during any single write operation, so that each data bit signal is latched into the appropriate physical bank. For a given physical bank, only one of latches 405 and 410 is active during any given memory cycle.
When a width of two is selected during a read operation, configuration logic 310 allows two of the four data bit signals associated with physical banks PB0-PB3 to be present at data terminals DQ0 and DQ1. To obtain this result, control signal RA is set to 0, and control signal RB is equal to the lower bit (A0) of the memory address corresponding to the current read operation. Control signal RB determines which of two pairs of data bit signals (0 and 1 or 2 and 3) are presented at data terminals DQ0 and DQ1 during a given read operation.
When a width of two is selected during a write operation, configuration logic 310 accepts the data bit signals from physical banks PB0 and PB1 and routes them either to data terminals DQ0 and DQ1 or DQ2 and DQ3. In this configuration, physical banks PB0 and PB1 collectively form one logical bank LB0,1 and physical banks PB2 and PB3 collectively form a second logical bank LB2,3. Control signals WA and WB are set to 0 and 1, respectively, to obtain this result.
A width of four is selected by setting all of the control signals (RA, RB, WA, and W,) to 0. Read and write data signals are then passed directly between physical banks PB0-PB3 and corresponding data terminals DQ0-DQ3.
For each row access, data moves from memory arrays MA0-MA3 to their respective sense amplifiers SA0-SA3. Core 400 minimizes the power required to perform a row access by limiting each row access to the selected physical bank(s). To this end, bank-select signals on lines BS0-BS3 are only asserted to selected banks.
Configuration logic 310 determines which of physical banks PB0-PB3 are selected, and consequently which bank-select signals are asserted, based upon the selected device width and memory address. The following Table 2 summarizes the logic within configuration logic 310 that generates the appropriate bank-select signals.
The circuit of
All data to and from memory core 400 passes through data terminal DQ0 in the x1 mode, terminals DQ0 and DQ1 in the x2 mode, and terminals DQ0-DQ3 in the x4 mode.
Each of memory modules 620 and 625 comprises a module backplane 630 and a plurality of integrated memory circuits 635. Each memory module also includes first and second opposed rows of electrical contacts (module pins) 640 along opposite surfaces of its backplane. Only one row of contacts 640 is visible in
A plurality of signal lines, or "traces," extends between memory controller 605 and electrical connectors 610 and 615 for electrical communication with memory modules 620 and 625. More specifically, there are a plurality of sets of signal lines, each set extending to a corresponding, different one of connectors 610 and 615. A first set of signal lines 645 extends to first electrical connector 610, and a second set of signal lines 650 extends to second electrical connector 615. Motherboard 600 also has a third set of signal lines 655 that extends between the two connectors.
In the embodiment shown, the signal lines comprise system data lines—they carry data that has been read from or that is to be written to memory modules 620 and 625. It is also possible that other signal lines, such as address and control lines, would couple to the memory modules through the connectors. These additional signal lines could have a different interconnection topology than what is shown for signal lines 645, 650, and 655.
The routing of the signal lines is more clearly visible in
As discussed above, each connector 610 and 615 has first and second opposed rows of contacts.
As is apparent in
The system of
In a two-module configuration, shorting bar 810 is replaced with a second memory module 800. If modules 800 are adapted in accordance with the invention to support two width configurations and to include one half of the module pins 640 on either side, then there is no need for a switch matrix like data control circuit 315 of
For a more detailed discussion of motherboard 600, see U.S. patent application Ser. No. 09/797,099 filed Feb. 28, 2001, entitled "Upgradeable Memory System with Reconfigurable Interconnect," by Richard E. Perego et al., which issued Oct. 27, 2009, as U.S. Pat. No. 7,610,447 and is incorporated herein by reference.
In some embodiments, the access configurations of the memory modules are controllable and programmable by memory controller 605 in the manner described above in connection with
The integrated memory circuit can be configured for the appropriate access mode using control pins. These control pins might be part of the signal line sets 645, 650, and 655, or they might be part of a different set of signal lines. These control pins might be dedicated to this configuration function, or they might be shared with other functions. Also, the integrated memory circuit might utilize programmable fuses to specify the configuration mode. Integrated memory circuit configurability might also be implemented, for example, by the use of jumpers on the memory modules. Note that the memory capacity of a module remains the same regardless of how it is configured. However, when it is accessed through one signal line set it requires a greater memory addressing range than when it is accessed through two signal line sets. Also note that the two configurations shown in
As noted above, the general signal line scheme can be generalized for use with n connectors and memory modules. Generally stated, a system such as this uses a plurality of signal-line sets, each extending to a respective module connector. At least one of these sets is configurable or bypassable to extend to a connector other than its own respective connector. Stated alternatively, there are 1 through n sets of signal lines that extend respectively to corresponding connectors 1 through n. Sets 1 through n−1 of the signal lines are configurable to extend respectively to additional ones of the connectors other than their corresponding connectors.
Referring first to
Each signal line set extends to a corresponding connector. Furthermore, signal lines sets 935, 940, and 945 are extendable to connectors other than their corresponding connectors: signal line set 935 is extendable to connector 925; signal line set 940 is extendable to both connectors 920 and 925; signal line set 945 is extendable to connector 925. More specifically, a first signal line set 930 extends directly to a first memory connector 925 without connection to any of the other connectors. It connects to corresponding contacts of the first contact row of connector 925. A second signal line set 935 extends directly to a second memory connector 920, where it connects to corresponding contacts of the first contact row. The corresponding contacts of the second contact row are connected to corresponding contacts of the first contact row of first connector 925, allowing the second signal line set to bypass second connector 920 when a shorting module is placed in connector 920.
A third signal line set 940 extends directly to a third memory connector 915, where it connects to corresponding contacts of the first contact row. The corresponding contacts of the second contact row are connected to corresponding contacts of the first contact row of connector 920. The corresponding second contact row contacts of connector 920 are connected to the corresponding contacts of the first contact row of connector 925.
A fourth signal line set 945 extends directly to a fourth memory connector 910, where it connects to corresponding contacts of the first contact row of connector 910. The corresponding contacts of the second contact row are connected to corresponding contacts of the first contact row of first connector 925.
This configuration, with appropriate use of shorting or bypass modules, accommodates one, two, three, or four physically identical memory modules. Each memory module permits simultaneous access through one, two, or four of its four available signal line sets. In the configuration of
An interesting aspect of a memory device with programmable data access width relates to the characteristic of the device that its bandwidth may generally be reduced as its data width is narrowed. As device bandwidth is reduced, opportunities increase for altering the device's memory array configuration to provide greater independence between array partitions.
There is typically some incremental circuit overhead associated with increasing the bank count of the device, setting a practical limit to the number of independent banks that could potentially be supported. However, a performance improvement related to the increased number of banks may justify some increase in device cost.
In the embodiment of
The examples highlighted in
Physical bank PB0 includes a row decoder RD0, a memory array MA0, a sense amp SA0 (actually a collection of sense amplifiers), and a column decoder CD0. Each of the remaining physical banks PB1-PB3 includes identical structures. The row decoders, memory banks, sense amps, and column decoders are omitted from
Address buffers 225 and 230, introduced in
The configuration and switching logic of core 1200 is extended to include a second set of address buffers (row and column) 1209 and a second set of configuration logic 1210. Address buffers 1209 connect to the row and column decoders in physical banks PB0 and PB1 via multiplexer 1205. Configuration logic 1210 connects to crossbar switch 1207—the data control circuit in this embodiment—and to bank-select terminals BS0 and BS1 via multiplexer 1205. A configuration-select bus CONF from configuration logic 310 includes three control lines C0-C2 that connect to crossbar switch 1207. Line C2 additionally connects to the select terminal of multiplexer 1205. In this embodiment, mode register 220 (
Core 1200 supports four operational modes, or "configurations," in addition to those described above in connection with
Core 1200 is operationally identical to core 450 of
Driving line C2 to a voltage level representative of a logic zero causes multiplexer 1205 to convey the contents of the second set of address buffers 1209 to physical banks PB0 and PB1, and additionally causes crossbar switch 1207 to respond to the control signals on lines C0 and C1. Logical banks LB0,1 and LB2,3 are thereby separated to provide independent memory access. Logical banks LB0,1 and LB2,3 are separately addressable in each of configurations two through five of Table 3. Though not shown, logical banks LB 0,1 and LB 2,3 can be adapted to receive either the same clock signal or separate clock signals.
In configuration number two, crossbar switch 1207 accesses logical bank LB0,1 on lines DQ0 and DQ1 and logical bank LB2,3 on lines DQ2 and DQ3. Core 1200 is therefore divided into a pair of two-bit memories accessed via separate two-bit data busses.
In configuration number three, crossbar switch 1207 alternatively accesses either logical bank LB0,1 or logical bank LB2,3 via lines DQ0 and DQ1. Core 1200 is therefore divided into two separately addressable two-bit memories that share a two-bit data bus. Configuration number four is similar, but access is provided via lines DQ2 and DQ3.
Configuration number five divides core 1200 into two separately addressable, one-bit-wide memories. In effect, each pair of physical blocks within logical blocks LB0,1 and LB2,3 is combined to form a single-bit memory with twice the address locations of a parallel configuration. Each of the resulting one-bit-wide memories is then separately accessible via one bus line.
The modes of Table 3 are not exhaustive. More control signals and/or additional control logic can be included to increase the available memory configurations. For example, configuration number five might be extended to include the ability to select the bus line upon which data is made available, or the two-bit modes could be extended to provide data on additional pairs of bus lines.
The mode-select aspect allows core 1200 to efficiently support data of different word lengths. Processors, which receive instructions and data from memory like core 1200, are sometimes asked to alternatively perform complex sets of instructions on relatively small data structures or perform simple instructions on relatively large data structures. In graphics programs, for example, the computationally simple task of refreshing an image employs large data structures, while more complex image processing tasks (e.g., texture mapping and removing hidden features) often employ relatively small data structures. Core 1200 can dynamically switch between configurations to best support the task at hand by altering the contents of mode register 220 (

Thus, the invention as defined by the claims is not limited to the specific features described above. Rather, the invention is claimed in any of its forms or modifications that fall within the proper scope of the appended claims, appropriately interpreted in accordance with the doctrine of equivalents.
