Abstract

This document discusses, among other things, an example system and methods for memory expansion. An example embodiment includes receiving a memory request from a memory controller over a channel. Based on the memory request, the example embodiment includes selecting a location in memory to couple to a sub-channel of the channel and configuring the set of field effect transistors to couple the channel with the sub-channel. In the example embodiment, data may be allowed to flow between the memory controller and the location in the memory over the channel and the sub-channel.
