Abstract:
A method for routing signals to a memory module having a memory repeater hub, comprising:determining, by a first memory repeater hub of the first memory module, whether the signals received address a memory device on a first memory module; routing the signals to a first memory bus on the first memory module connected to the memory device, if the addressed memory device is on the first memory module; and routing the signals to a second memory repeater hub of the second memory module that is connected to the first memory module, if the addressed memory device is not on the first memory module; determining, by the second memory repeater hub, whether the signals received address a memory device on the second memory module; and routing the signals to a second memory bus on the second memory module connected to the memory device, if the addressed memory device is on the second memory module.
