US Patent 12072376 Die-to-die connectivity monitoring

An input/output (I/O) sensor for a multi-IC module. The I/O sensor includes: delay circuitry, configured to receive a data signal from an interconnected part of an IC of the multi-IC module and to generate a delayed data signal, the delay circuitry including an adjustable delay-line configured to delay an input signal by a set time duration; a comparison circuit, configured to generate a comparison signal by comparing the data signal with the delayed data signal; and processing logic, configured to set the time duration of the adjustable delay-line and, based on the comparison signal, identify a margin measurement of the data signal for determining an interconnect quality parameter.
