Abstract:
1. A memory hub for accessing a plurality of memory devices, the memory huh comprising: a switch; a link interface coupled to the switch for receiving memory requests for access to at least one of the memory devices; a memory device interface coupled to the switch and the memory devices; and a self-test module coupled to at least one of the memory devices via the switch, wherein the self-test module is operable to couple a series of corresponding first and second signals to the at least one memory device and to alter the relative timing between when some of the corresponding first and second signals in the series are coupled to the at least one memory device over a range, the self-test module further receiving output signals from the at least one memory device and determining based on the received output signals whether the at least one memory device properly responded to the series of first and second signals.
