It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present disclosure may be practiced without some of these specific details. In some instances, methods, means, elements and circuits that are well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the present disclosure.
Fig. 1 shows a block diagram of a start control device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the starting apparatus includes:
a plurality of processing chips 12 connected in series;
a control chip 11 connected to a first-stage processing chip 121 of the plurality of processing chips,
the control chip 11 is configured to:
at a first time when the plurality of processing chips 12 are started, sending a start signal of a first frequency to the first-stage processing chip 121, so that the plurality of processing chips 12 sequentially operate at the first frequency, where the first frequency is a first one of M preset start frequencies, and M is an integer greater than 1;
according to the corresponding relationship between the M start frequencies and the durations, at a second time spaced from the first time by a first duration, sending a start signal of a next start frequency to the first-stage processing chip 121, where the first duration corresponds to the first frequency;
at a third time spaced from the time of sending the start signal of the mth start frequency by a second time length, sending the start signal of the target frequency to the first-stage processing chip 121, so as to sequentially operate the plurality of processing chips 12 at the target frequency, where the second time length corresponds to the mth start frequency,
wherein the M starting frequencies are less than the target frequency.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, in the starting process of the multi-chip cascade link, the control chip sends M preset starting frequencies and target frequencies to the first-stage processing chip, so that each chip on the link runs at the same frequency, the impedance change of the chips tends to be stable and similar, the distribution of voltage is further balanced, and the performance of the whole link is improved.
For example, M start-up frequencies (M is an integer greater than 1) may be preset to configure the start-up frequency for each processing chip on the link. Wherein M starting frequencies can be expressed as f1、f2、……、fMM starting frequencies f1、f2、……、fMAre all less than the target frequency f of the plurality of processing chips 12 in the link when working normallyT
In one possible implementation, each start-up frequency may correspond to a duration that is greater than or equal to a duration required for each processing chip on the link to operate smoothly at the corresponding start-up frequency. After receiving the new start frequency, the processing chips 12 adjust the operating frequency to the newly received start frequency and require a certain time for stable operation, and the time duration corresponding to each start frequency is set to be longer than the time duration required for the sequential operation of the processing chips 12, so that each processing chip on the link can operate stably. In this way, the correspondence (e.g., mapping table) between the M start frequencies and the time durations can be established.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a starting process of a starting control device according to an embodiment of the disclosure. In one possible implementation, as shown in fig. 2, at a first time when the plurality of processing chips 12 are started, the control chip 11 may send a first frequency f to the first stage processing chip 1211A plurality of processing chips 12 sequentially at a first frequency f1And (5) operating. For example, the first frequency f1There may be a minimum frequency 26M configurable by the clock of the control chip 11.
In a possible implementation mannerIn the control chip 11, the first frequency f is transmitted1According to the correspondence between the M start frequencies and the durations, the first frequency f of transmission can be determined1Is started (first time period T)1). Thus, a first time interval T is formed between the first time and the second time1At the second moment, the control chip 11 can send the next starting frequency f to the first stage processing chip 1212So that the plurality of processing chips 12 are sequentially activated at the activation frequency f2And (5) operating. For example, f2The configuration is 100M.
In a possible implementation manner, according to a preset sending sequence of M starting frequencies and a corresponding relationship between the starting frequencies and the durations, the control chip 11 may send a next starting frequency at intervals of the corresponding durations after sending one starting frequency until the M starting frequencies are sent in sequence. During this time, the plurality of processing chips 12 are each operated at the received start-up frequency.
In one possible implementation, the control chip 11 sends the mth start frequency fMAccording to the correspondence between the M starting frequencies and the time lengths, the transmission f can be determined after the starting signal is sentMIs started, is followed by a wait period (second period T)M). Thus, the second time interval T is set between the sending of the starting signal of the Mth starting frequencyMAt the third time, the control chip 11 may send the target frequency f to the first stage processing chip 121TSo that the plurality of processing chips 12 are sequentially at the target frequency fTAnd (5) operating.
It should be understood that the target frequency f of operation is different for the chipsTThe target frequency f may be set according to actual conditionsTThe present disclosure is not so limited.
In one possible implementation, the time duration corresponding to each activation frequency is the same. That is, the duration of the M start-up frequencies can be set to a fixed longer duration (e.g., 0.5 seconds), which can ensure that the processing chips 12 on the link can operate smoothly under various conditions.
In a possible implementation manner, the duration of the M start-up frequencies may also be set to correspond to the time required for data transmission at each start-up frequency, for example, the duration corresponding to each start-up frequency is set to be greater than the number of clock cycles according to the number of clock cycles required for data transmission from the control chip 11 to the last stage processing chip.
In a possible implementation manner, the durations of the M start frequencies may also be set according to feedback signals of the plurality of processing chips running stably, for example, after the control chip 11 sends a start signal of a start frequency to the first-stage processing chip 121, the control chip receives feedback signals of the plurality of processing chips 12 running stably at the start frequency, and the duration corresponding to each start frequency may be set to be greater than the time interval between the start signal and its feedback signal.
The specific value of the corresponding duration of each starting frequency is not limited in the present disclosure.
In one possible implementation, the M start frequencies may increase with the transmission order of the start signals. That is, M starting frequencies f1、f2、f3、……、fMFor example, the values of the M start frequencies may be sequentially configured to be 26M, 100M, and 200M … …, and the operating frequencies of the processing chips 12 may be gradually increased upwards by configuring the start frequencies to increase with the transmission sequence, so as to improve the performance and efficiency of the entire link. It should be understood that, the preset starting frequencies may be different from chip to chip, and the specific setting values of the starting frequencies are not limited by the disclosure.

In a possible implementation manner, according to a preset sending order of the N configuration signals and a corresponding relationship between the configuration signals and the time lengths, the control chip 11 sends one configuration signal and then sends the next configuration signal at intervals of the corresponding time lengths until the N-1 configuration signals are sent in sequence. During this period, the plurality of processing chips 12 activate the corresponding processing unit group of the N groups of processing units of each processing chip according to the received configuration signal;
in a possible implementation manner, after the control chip 11 sends the nth-1 configuration signal, according to the corresponding relationship between the N configuration signals and the time length, it may be determined to send the nth configuration signal SNPrevious waiting period (fourth period T)SN-1). Thus, the fourth time period T is separated from the time of sending the N-1 configuration signalSN-1At the sixth time, the control chip 11 may send the nth configuration signal S to the first stage processing chip 121NSo that the Nth group of processing units in the N groups of processing units of each processing chip are started.

That is, the duration of the N configuration signals may be set to a fixed longer duration (e.g., 0.5 seconds), which may ensure that the plurality of processing chips 12 on the link operate smoothly under various conditions.
In a possible implementation, the time lengths of the N configuration signals may also be set to correspond to the time required for the data transmission of the activated processing unit, for example, the time length corresponding to each configuration signal is set to be greater than the number of clock cycles according to the number of clock cycles required for the data transmission from the control chip 11 to the last stage processing chip.
In a possible implementation manner, the time lengths of the N configuration signals may also be set according to feedback signals of the multiple processing chips that operate stably, for example, after the control chip 11 sends a configuration signal to the first-stage processing chip 121, the control chip receives feedback signals of the multiple processing chips 12 that start the corresponding processing units to operate stably according to the configuration signal, and the time length corresponding to each configuration signal may be set to be greater than the time interval between the configuration signal and the feedback signal thereof.
