    摘要: The described embodiments provide a system for controlling an integrated circuit memory device by a memory controller. During operation, the system sends a memory-access request from the memory controller to the memory device using a first link. After sending the memory-access request, the memory controller sends to the memory device a command that specifies performing a timing-calibration operation for a second link. The system subsequently transfers data associated with the memory-access request using the second link, wherein the timing-calibration operation occurs between sending the memory-access request and transferring the data associated with the memory-access request.

    摘要: Systems and methods for data transmission power optimization are disclosed. In one aspect, the system consolidates signals from multiple narrowband channels in a radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit (IC) (RFIC) into a single shared buffer and evenly distributes packets based on the signals across lanes in a communication bus to a modem circuit. Such even utilization of the lanes of the bus allows for idle periods to occur on the bus, during which a low power or sleep state may be used to reduce power consumption.
