    Abstract: A die with a transmission circuit, a reception circuit, and a comparison circuit can be provided. The transmission circuit can be configured to transmit a first signal through a first channel at a first transmission rate and a first transmission amplitude. The reception circuit can be in communication with the transmission circuit through the first channel. The reception circuit can receive a second signal at a first reception rate and at a first reception amplitude. The comparison circuit can be in communication with the transmission circuit and the reception circuit. The comparison circuit can be configured to: determine a first rate error value, determine a first amplitude error value, compare the first rate error value with a rate threshold to determine a first rate error occurrence, and compare the first amplitude error value with an amplitude threshold to determine a first amplitude error occurrence.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems and methods associated with integrated circuit packages with integrated test circuitry for testing of a channel between dies are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an integrated circuit (IC) package may include a first die, a second die, and a channel that couples the first die to the second die. The first die may include a transmitter, test circuitry coupled between the transmitter and the channel, wherein the test circuitry is to control charge and discharge of the channel, and a receiver coupled to the channel. The receiver may determine a voltage of the channel during charge and discharge of the channel, and output an indication of the voltage. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for the characterization of transmission media, among other embodiments. For example, a system for characterizing a transmission medium may include: a waveform generator to generate an initial input waveform; waveform pre-processing circuitry to process the initial waveform to generate a processed input waveform for provision to the transmission medium, wherein the processed input waveform has a maximum amplitude greater than a maximum amplitude of the initial input waveform; and waveform output circuitry to display or store data representative of an initial output waveform, wherein the initial output waveform is output from the transmission medium as a reflection or transmission of the processed input waveform.
