Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for communicating data with stacked memory dies are described. A first semiconductor die may communicate with an external computing device using a binary-symbol signal including two signal levels representing one bit of data. Semiconductor dies may be stacked on one another and include internal interconnects (e.g., through-silicon vias) to relay an internal signal generated based on the binary-symbol signal. The internal signal may be a multi-symbol signal modulated using a modulation scheme that includes three or more levels to represent more than one bit of data. The multi-level symbol signal may simplify the internal interconnects. A second semiconductor die may be configured to receive and re-transmit the multi-level symbol signal to semiconductor dies positioned above the second semiconductor die.

Claim (Index 21):
The apparatus of  claim 20 , wherein:\n the controller is operable to:\n transmit the second signal to the one or more memory dies of the first plurality of memory dies through the first TSV and to the one or more memory dies of the second plurality of memory dies through the third TSV, wherein transmitting to the one or more memory dies of the second plurality of memory dies is in conjunction with re-transmitting the second signal at the second controller.
