摘要:
A method for transferring data into a data memory using a data protocol is presented. The data memory is an error correction code (ECC) memory or a non-error correction code memory. The data protocol has different frames. When data are written into an ECC memory, the protocol includes a data mask frame in which the data mask bits are replaced by ECC bits. The method is designed such that ECC and non-ECC DRAMs can be established with the same protocol and at least a similar architecture.

The present invention relates to a memory system having a memory device with two clock lines. One embodiment of the present invention provides a memory system comprising at least one memory device, a memory controller to control operation of the memory device, a first clock line which extends from a write clock output of the memory controller to a clock port of the memory device to provide a clock signal to the memory device, and a second clock line which extends from the clock port of the memory device to a read clock input of the memory controller to forward the clock signal applied to the clock port of the memory device back to a read clock input of the memory controller. The memory device may further comprise a synchronization circuit adapted to receive the clock signal from the memory controller and to, provide an output data synchronized to the forwarded clock signal.
