具体实施方式
现在将参考附图更全面地描述示例实施例。然而,示例实施例能够以多种形式实施,且不应被理解为限于在此阐述的范例;相反,提供这些实施例使得本公开将更加全面和完整,并将示例实施例的构思全面地传达给本领域的技术人员。图中相同的附图标记表示相 同或类似的结构,因而将省略它们的详细描述。
虽然本说明书中使用相对性的用语,例如“上”“下”来描述图标的一个组件对于另一组件的相对关系,但是这些术语用于本说明书中仅出于方便,例如根据附图中所述的示例的方向。能理解的是,如果将图标的装置翻转使其上下颠倒,则所叙述在“上”的组件将会成为在“下”的组件。其他相对性的用语,例如“高”“低”“顶”“底”“左”“右”等也作具有类似含义。当某结构在其它结构“上”时,有可能是指某结构一体形成于其它结构上,或指某结构“直接”设置在其它结构上,或指某结构通过另一结构“间接”设置在其它结构上。
用语“一个”、“一”、“所述”用以表示存在一个或多个要素/组成区分/等;用语“包括”和“具有”用以表示开放式的包括在内的意思并且是指除了列出的要素/组成区分/等之外还可存在另外的要素/组成区分/等。
在一个芯片中,通常包含有多个单元。举例来说,一个典型的动态随机存取存储器芯片有多达6千4百万个存储单元,这些存储单元可以按行和列的方式排列成主阵列,以便于通过字线和位线来寻址。
在典型的动态随机存取存储器芯片的制造过程中,可能会发生主阵列中一百万甚至数百万个单元存在着缺陷,即所谓的失效地址。为了提高芯片的成品率,通常会在芯片上制作冗余线路,这些冗余线路可以替代有缺陷的失效地址所在的失效线路,从而旁路这些有缺陷的失效地址并使存储电路可以正常使用。
参照图1,示出了根据本公开的示例性实施方式的一个芯片的结构示意图,一个芯片100通常包括正常单元区110和备用单元区120,正常单元区110中含有较多的单元,正常单元区110包括两种正交的线路:字线111和位线112,其中,字线111为列线路,位线112为行线路。同时,在正常单元区110之外,芯片100上还设置有包含备用单元的备用单元区120,备用单元区120包括两种正交的笔直线路:备用字线121(Redundancy Word-Line,RWL)和备用位线122(Redundancy Bit-Line,RBL),其中,备用字线121为列线路,用于修补字线111上的失效地址;备用位线122为行线路,用于修补位线112上的失效地址。
然而,对于封装后的存储器,当存储器中的失效线路多于冗余线路的时候,存在着无法修复失效线路而导致无法读取失效地址的信息,导致程序无法正常运行的情况发生。基于此,本示例性实施方式中提供了一种封装后的内存修复方法。
参照图2,示出了根据本公开的示例性实施方式的一种封装后修复控制电路存储器系统的框图。如图1所示,存储器系统200响应于从主机50接收的各种输入/输出(I/O)请求,执行至少写入操作和读取操作。存储器系统200通常包括存储器控制器201和存储器设备202。
主机50可以是电子设备,例如,计算机、笔记本电脑、平板电脑、智能电话、智能电视等。主机50可结合运行一个或多个操作系统51的一个或多个应用52的执行,来访问存储器系统200。
在响应于主机请求的读取/写入操作或其它存储器访问操作的执行期间,存储器系统200可以从存储器控制器201向存储器设备202提供封装后修复命令和相关联的失效地址。
一旦识别出集成电路的失效部分,修复过程包括用冗余资源替换失效部分。用冗余资源替换失效部分的方法称为PPR(Post Package Repair,包装后修复)方法,该PPR包括hPPR(hard Post Package Repair,硬包装后修复)和sPPR(soft Post Package Repair,软包装后修复)。封装后软修复sPPR是一种快速但临时地修复内存阵列中元素的方法,而封装后硬修复hPPR则需要更长的时间,但它是对内存阵列中元素进行永久修复。
在实际应用中,对于sPPR或是hPPR而言,在同一个存储体组中,通常只有一个备用线路(备用位线或备用字线)可以进行修复操作。
图3示意性示出了根据本公开的一些实施例的封装后的内存修复方法的步骤流程图。参考图3,该封装后的内存修复方法可以包括以下步骤:
步骤S310,在内存测试过程中,将内存的失效信息写入到SPD(Serial Presence Detect,串行检测)中,失效信息包括失效地址;
步骤S320,在设备开机后,从SPD中读取失效地址,并确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量;
步骤S330,在失效线路的数量小于或等于冗余线路的数量时,使用冗余线路对失效线路进行修复;
步骤S340,在失效线路的数量大于冗余线路的数量时,将失效信息加载到寄存器中。
根据本示例实施例中的封装后的内存修复方法,一方面,通过将内存的失效地址写入到SPD中,设备开机后,可以直接从SPD中读取失效地址,并确定失效线路的数量,根据失效线路的数量对失效线路进行修复,或者将失效信息加载到寄存器中,以在需要使用的时候,可以直接调用,从而实现了对失效地址进行全部修复的过程。另一方面,通过在内存测试过程中,记录失效信息,并在开机的时候对失效地址进行修复,实现了一种从软件的层面修复失效地址,从而为内存的封装后修复提供了一种实现方案,减少了内存的故障率,延长了内存的使用寿命。
下面,将对本示例实施例中的封装后的内存修复方法进行进一步的说明。
在步骤S310中,在内存测试过程中,将内存的失效信息写入到SPD中,失效信息包括失效地址。
SPD是一组关于内存模组的配置信息,如P-Bank(Physical Bank,物理层)数量、行地址/列地址数量、位宽、各种主要操作时序等信息,这些信息都存放在一个容量为256字节的EEPROM(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory,电擦除可编程只读存储器)中,即SPD内的时序信息由模组生产商根据所使用的内存芯片的特点编写并写入至EEPROM,所述EEPROM存放在内存中。也就是说,失效信息可以写入到EEPROM的SPD中。
EEPROM的主要用途就是协助北桥芯片精确调整内存的物理/时序参数,以达到最佳 的使用效果。如果在BIOS(Basic Input Output System,基本输入输出系统)中将内存设置选项定为“By SPD”。那么在开机时,北桥会根据SPD中的参数信息来自动配置相应的内存时序与控制寄存器,避免人为出现调校错误而引起故障。
在内存访问测试过程中,首先进行内存的测试,这一过程是在内存条出厂前的完成,内存厂家用其测试软件实现内存的读写测试。并将其失效信息写入到内存的SPD中,如表1所示,SPD的定义为512Kb。其中Byte(字节)384~511由用户自定义,从Byte384开始定义的内容如表2所示。失效地址依次按照此内容格式往下写入,如表2所示。

Byte8 Byte9 Byte10 Byte11 Byte12 Byte13 Byte14 Byte15
               
               
               
               
Byte496 Byte497 Byte498 Byte499 Byte500 Byte501 Byte502 Byte 503

398 内存条中第2颗失效颗粒的位置及Rank
399 内存条中第2颗失效颗粒对应的Bank/Bank Group
400 内存条中第2颗失效颗粒对应的行地址
401 内存条中第2颗失效颗粒的列地址
在表2中,可以将内存条中的所有失效颗粒的失效位置、失效颗粒的Rank、Bank/Bank Group(存储体组)、行地址和列地址等失效信息写入到内存的用户自定义字节中,其中,Rank指的是在内存模组上的内存区块;内存芯片中用于寻址的阵列称为内存芯片的Bank。
在实际应用中,可以将内存信息按照表2的失效信息顺序写入到用户自定义字节中,也可以按照其他顺序来写入,本示例性实施方式对此不作限定。
在步骤S320中,在设备开机后,从SPD中读取失效地址,并确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量。
本示例性实施方式中,在内存厂家完成对失效信息的写入步骤之后,在设备的系统开机,例如,用户使用过程中,操作系统的CPU(Central Processing Unit,中央处理器)会首先对内存中的SPD进行读取,并根据SPD中记录的失效地址,确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量,并根据不同的失效线路的数量来确定不同的修复方案。
由于同一个存储体组中的冗余线路只能对其所在的存储体组中的失效线路进行修复,因此,上述确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量可以包括:确定同一个存储体组中的失效地址所在的失效线路的数量。
在步骤S330中,在失效线路的数量小于或等于冗余线路的数量时,使用冗余线路对失效线路进行修复;在步骤S340中,在失效线路的数量大于冗余线路的数量时,将失效信息加载到寄存器中。
本示例性实施方式中,通过比较失效线路的数量和冗余线路的数量,来确定具体的修复方案,对于失效线路的数量小于或等于冗余线路的数量的情况,可以直接使用冗余线路对失效线路进行修复。此处的修复有可能是hPPR,也可能是sPPR修复。
具体的,当失效线路存储在非易失性存储器中的时候,使用的是hPPR命令进行修复;当失效线路存储在易失性存储器中的时候,使用的是sPPR命令进行修复。其中,hPPR属于永久修复的方法,使用hPPR修复后,冗余线路即永久替换了失效线路。
而对于失效线路的数量大于冗余线路的数量的情况,直接将失效信息加载到寄存器中,以暂时存放失效信息。以便于在对内存进行读写访问过程中,如果访问到失效地址,则直接从寄存器中读写失效地址对应的信息。避免直接访问到失效地址而出现故障。
同样需要说明的是,上述冗余线路的数量也指的是同一个存储体组中的冗余线路的数量。
在本示例性实施方式中,通过上述步骤S320-S340,可以在每次开机后对内存进行修复,从而实现一种从软件层面进行修复的方法,以便于用户在使用存储器过程中对内存进行修复,减少存储器使用过程中的故障率,从而可以提升用户体验。
参照图4,示意性示出了根据本公开的示例性实施方式的封装后的内存修复流程示意图,如图4所示,在步骤S401中,进行内存测试,以获得内存的失效地址;在步骤S402中,将失效地址写入到SPD中;在步骤S403中,设备开机;在步骤S404中,从SPD中读取失效地址;在步骤S405中,进入判断条件,即判断失效地址所在的失效线路的数量是否小于或等于冗余线路的数量;如果满足判断条件,则执行步骤S406,使用PPR进行修复;如果不满足判断条件,则执行步骤S407,将失效信息加载到寄存器中;完成所有失效地址的修复后,再执行步骤S408,正常启动系统,并且在对内存进行读写访问过程中,如果访问到失效地址,则直接从寄存器中读写失效地址对应的信息。
需要说明的是,尽管在附图中以特定顺序描述了本发明中方法的各个步骤,但是,这 并非要求或者暗示必须按照该特定顺序来执行这些步骤,或是必须执行全部所示的步骤才能实现期望的结果。附加的或备选的,可以省略某些步骤,将多个步骤合并为一个步骤执行,以及/或者将一个步骤分解为多个步骤执行等。
此外,在本示例实施例中,还提供了一种封装后的内存修复装置。参考图5,该封装后的内存修复装置500可以包括:写入模块510、读取模块520、第一修复模块530和第二修复模块540,其中,
写入模块510,用于在内存测试过程中,将内存的失效信息写入到SPD中,失效信息包括失效地址。
读取模块520,用于在设备开机后,从SPD中读取失效地址,并确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量。
第一修复模块530,用于在失效线路的数量小于或等于冗余线路的数量时,使用冗余线路对失效线路进行修复。
第二修复模块540,用于在失效线路的数量大于冗余线路的数量时,将失效信息加载到寄存器中。
本示例性实施方式中,写入模块510可以将内存条中的所有失效颗粒的失效位置、失效颗粒的Rank、Bank/Bank Group(存储体组)、行地址和列地址等失效信息写入到内存的用户自定义字节中。可以将上述内存信息顺序写入到用户自定义字节中。
读取模块520用于在设备的系统开机后,首先对EEPROM中的SPD进行读取,并根据SPD中记录的失效地址,确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量,并根据不同的失效线路的数量来确定不同的修复方案。
由于同一个存储体组中的冗余线路只能对其所在的存储体组中的失效线路进行修复,因此,上述确定失效地址所在的失效线路的数量可以包括:确定同一个存储体组中的失效地址所在的失效线路的数量。
通过比较同一个存储体组中的失效线路的数量和冗余线路的数量,使用第一修复模块530或第二修复模块540进行修复。对于失效线路的数量小于或等于冗余线路的数量的情况,通过第一修复模块530直接使用冗余线路对失效线路进行修复。此处的修复有可能是hPPR,也可能是sPPR修复。
而对于失效线路的数量大于冗余线路的数量的情况,则通过第二修复模块540直接将失效信息加载到寄存器中,以暂时存放失效信息。以便于在对内存进行读写访问过程中,如果访问到失效地址,则直接从寄存器中读写失效地址对应的信息。避免直接访问到失效地址而出现故障。
在本示例性实施方式中,通过写入模块510、读取模块520、第一修复模530和第二修复模块540,可以在每次开机后对内存进行修复,从而实现一种从软件层面进行修复的方法,以便于用户在使用存储器过程中对内存进行修复,减少存储器使用过程中的故障率,从而可以提升用户体验。
