Abstract

See full text

An integrated circuit memory device is disclosed. The memory device includes a memory core having a timing input to receive a clock signal. An interface couples to the memory core. The interface includes a receiver to receive a serial stream of write data bits and a sampler clocked by a strobe signal to generate serialized write data. The interface also includes a deserializer and control logic. The deserializer includes an input to receive the serialized write data and an output to generate parallel data responsive to a control signal generated by the control logic. In a first mode of operation, the control logic generates the control signal with respect to the clock signal. In a second mode of operation, the control logic generates the control signal with respect to the strobe signal.
