Abstract: A memory controller and/or memory device control termination of a communication link in order to achieve power savings while reducing or eliminating unwanted reflections in the channel. Following transmission of data over the communication channel, termination is left enabled for a programmable time period beginning immediately following completion of the transmission. The time period is sufficiently long to allow the unwanted reflections to be absorbed by the termination. Following the time period, the termination is disabled for power savings.

Abstract translation: 存储器控制器和/或存储器设备控制通信链路的终端，以便在减少或消除信道中的不必要的反射的同时实现功率节省。 在通过通信信道传输数据之后，在传输完成之后立即开始可编程时间段的终止。 该时间段足够长以允许不期望的反射被终端吸收。 在该时间段之后，终止功能被禁用以节省电力。
