Abstract

Provided is a device for use in a memory module coupled to a host memory controller over a bus, comprising memory module control logic to generate a request signal to a host memory controller having a pulse width greater than or equal to a minimum pulse width, wherein the minimum pulse width comprises a number of clock cycles needed to guarantee that the host memory controller detects the request signal, and wherein the pulse width of the request signal indicates at least one function in addition to the request signal to the host memory controller.
