Abstract:
Apparatuses, memories, and methods for facilitating splitting of internal commands using a shared signal path are described. In an example shared signal path, a command circuit is configured to receive a command and an indicator signal. A lockout circuit is coupled to the command circuit and configured to give precedence to a chosen command type by masking the indicator signal. In another example, a counter circuit is coupled to the lockout circuit and configured to force the lockout circuit to sample the indicator signal at regular intervals.
