    Abstract: Methods for improving timing in memory devices are disclosed. A method may include sampling a command signal according to a clock signal to obtain standard-timing commands. The method may also include sampling the command signal according to an adjusted clock signal to obtain time-adjusted commands. The method may also include comparing the standard-timing commands and the time-adjusted commands. The method may also include determining an improved timing for the clock signal based on the comparison of the standard-timing commands and the time-adjusted commands. The method may also include adjusting the clock signal based on the improved timing. Associated systems and methods are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A device may include a number of drivers, wherein each driver of the number of drivers includes a number of transistors coupled to an output node. The device may further include circuitry coupled to the number of drivers. The circuitry may configure at least one driver of the number of drivers in each of a number of configurations, wherein each configuration of the number of configurations is associated with a calibration code of a number of calibration codes. Each configuration generates, in response to signal transmission via the output node, an associated channel performance response of a number of channel performance responses. The circuitry may also store a calibration code for the at least one unit driver, wherein the calibration code generates a desired channel performance response of the number of channel performance responses. Systems and related methods of operation are also described.

    Abstract: Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a deck over a base, and having memory cells supported by the deck. Each of the memory cells includes a capacitive unit and a transistor. The individual capacitive units of the memory cells each have a storage node electrode, a plate electrode, and a capacitor dielectric material between the storage node electrode and the plate electrode. A reference-voltage-generator includes resistive units supported by the deck. The resistive units are similar to the memory cells but include interconnecting units in place of the capacitive units. The interconnecting units of some adjacent resistive units are shorted to one another.
