Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates generally to memory modules for computer systems. More particularly, the invention relates to address re-mapping techniques such as, for example, for system level negotiation of an addressing mode of a memory module by dynamic control of the presence detect data.
A memory module comprising: a plurality of memory devices associated with the module; each of the memory devices being configured in M banks; and a logic circuit for configuring the memory module to operate in a programmable addressing mode; the logic circuit receiving a number of address inputs and a number of bank address signals from a memory controller with the address inputs and bank address input signals corresponding to N bank memory devices; the logic circuit re-mapping at least one of said address inputs as an additional bank address signal to the memory device or at least one of the bank address signals to a different device bank address. |
