Zusammenfassung: | This disclosure describes aspects of memory die interconnections to physical layer interfaces (PHYs) that may enable expanded channel bus width and improved signal integrity (SI). In aspects, a memory die is operably coupled to a first PHY via a command-and-address (CA) bus and data input/output (DQ) bus of the first PHY and to a second PHY via a chip select (CS) bus of the second PHY. The second PHY may provide a CS signal to the memory die, and the first PHY can perform a training procedure via CA signaling or DQ signaling. The training procedure may improve SI between the memory die and the PHYs. Additionally, a memory die may be interconnected to different PHYs to expand a channel bus width. Thus, by interconnecting memory dies to one or more PHYs as described herein, improved SI and expanded channel bus width can be achieved. |
