A memory device is provided with memory components and a clock skew generator, supporting at least two read and write operations that can occur coincidentally in read-read, read-write and write-write modes of operation of the memory device. The clock skew generator produces at least two stable and balanced clock channels carrying the at least two clock signals and varies relative timing of the clock signal edges so as to displace the edges in time, in those modes of operation wherein simultaneous edges would lead to detrimental loading.
