Zusammenfassung:Hardware and/or software that dynamically enables or disables CRC and/or adjust voltage level of power supply to a physical layer block on a host by determining an optimum tradeoff between power and performance. The hardware and/or software decreases the voltage level for the power supply and enables CRC to compensate signal errors (e.g., errors from signal integrity issues). Hardware and/or software dynamically adjusts voltage level of the power supply rail based on the throughput or speed of the DDR link. In some examples, depending on read or write operations, the voltage level of the power supply rail is adjusted.
