Abstract:
A method may include link training a plurality of back-side lanes coupling a plurality of memory chips of a memory module to a plurality of data buffers of the memory module. The method may also include link training a plurality of front-side lanes coupling the plurality of data buffers to a memory controller. The method may further include determining after link training of the back-side and front-side lanes whether signal integrity of data communicated over the front-side lanes exceeds one or more thresholds. The method may additionally include responsive to determining that the signal integrity of data communicated over one or more of the front-side lanes fails to exceed the one or more thresholds, modifying timing of data communicated over one or more of the back-side and front-side lanes in order to improve signal integrity of the one or more of the front-side lanes failing to exceed the thresholds.
