Abstract: A read clock circuit selectively provides a read clock signal from a memory to a memory controller over a memory bus. A pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM) driver including an input and an output capable of driving at least three levels indicating respective digital values. A digital control circuit is coupled to the PAM driver and operable to cause the PAM driver to provide a preamble signal before the read clock signal, the preamble signal including an initial toggling state in which the PAM driver toggles between two selected levels at a first rate, and a final toggling state in which the PAM driver toggles between two selected levels at a second rate higher than the first rate, with a length of the initial toggling state and a length of the final toggling state are based on values in a mode register.

Abstract: A memory controller monitors memory command selected for dispatch to the memory and sends commands controlling a read clock state. A memory includes a read clock circuit and a mode register. The read clock circuit has an output for providing a hybrid read clock signal in response to a clock signal and a read clock mode signal. The read clock circuit provides the hybrid read clock signal as a free-running clock signal that toggles continuously, and as a strobe signal that is active only in response to the memory receiving a read command.

Abstract: A memory includes a read clock state machine and a read clock driver circuit. The read clock state machine has a first input for receiving a read command signal, a second input for receiving a read clock mode signal, and an output for providing a drive enable signal. The read clock driver circuit has an output for providing a read clock signal in response to a clock signal when the drive enable signal is active. When the read clock mode signal indicates a read-only mode, the read clock state machine starts toggling the read clock signal during a read preamble period before a data transmission of a first read command, and continues toggling the read clock signal for at least a read postamble period following the data transmission of the first read command.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for training data in a computer system includes reading data stored in a first memory address in a memory and writing it to a buffer. Training data is generated for transmission to the first memory address. The data is transmitted to the first memory address. Information relating to the training data is read from the first memory address and the stored data is read from the buffer and written to the memory area where the training data was transmitted.
