ABSTRACT:
A keyboard controller is used to drive the PDEN pins on DIMMs. A PC has a keyboard controller with a plurality of programmable input/output (I/O) pins. The state of the programmable I/O pins can be set by software. The pins are coupled to individual PDEN pins on the DIMMs. When the programmable I/O pins are activated, the PDEN pins are driven active and each DIMM outputs a signal indicating its characteristics. The signals are latched and stored for use by a memory controller.
