Abstract: A memory system and method uses stacked memory device dice coupled to each other and to a logic die. The logic die may include a timing correction system that is operable to control the timing at which the logic die receives signals, such as read data signals, from each of the memory device dice. The timing correction controls the timing of the read data or other signals by adjusting the timing of respective strobe signals, such as read strobe signals, that are applied to each of the memory device dice. The memory device dice may transmit read data to the memory device at a time determined by when it receives the respective strobe signals. The timing of each of the strobe signals is adjusted so that the read data or other signals from all of the memory device dice are received at the same time.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide memory systems having a plurality of memory devices sharing an interface for the transmission of read data. A controller can identify consecutive read requests sent to different memory devices. To avoid data contention on the interface, for example, the controller can be configured to delay the time until read data corresponding to the second read request is placed on the interface.

Abstract: Error correcting codes (ECCs) have been proposed to be used in high frequency memory devices to detect errors in signals transmitted between a memory controller and a memory device. For high frequency memory devices, ECCs have delay characteristics of greater than one clock cycle. When the delay exceeds one clock cycle but is much less than two clock cycles, an entire second clock cycle must be added. By calculating and comparing the ECC value in a static logic circuit and a dynamic logic circuit, the logic delay is substantially reduced. In addition, the ECC value may be calculated and compared using two sets of static logic gates, where the second static logic gate is clocked by a clock signal that is delayed relative to the clock signal of the first set of logic gates.

Abstract: A signal capture system and method is used to capture a data signal using a data strobe signal having a preamble of strobe signal transitions. The system includes a data latch circuit receiving the data signal. The data latch circuit is clocked by transitions of the data strobe signal to capture respective bits of data corresponding to the data signal. A decoder receives a memory command signal and generates a data start signal after a delay period from receiving the memory command signal if the command signal corresponds to a read or a write command. The receipt of read or write command signals is used by a control circuit to identify the start of valid read or write data signals. The control circuit then outputs the captured data signals responsive to the data start signal, thereby ignoring the transitions in the preamble of the data strobe signal.
