Abstract
A memory controller emulator for controlling memory devices in a memory system includes a counter for generating a plurality of address values. A plurality of storage devices for storing memory address information, memory data to be stored in the memory devices, and memory commands for controlling operation of the memory devices, are coupled to the counter. Each of the plurality of storage devices is configured to output data stored therein based upon address values received from the counter.

A memory controller emulator for controlling memory devices in a memory system comprising:
- a counter for generating a plurality of address values;
- and
- a plurality of storage devices coupled to the counter for storing memory address information, memory data to be stored in the memory devices, and memory commands for controlling operation of the memory devices, each of the plurality of storage devices configured to output data stored therein based upon address values received from the counter.
A method of emulating a memory controller for controlling memory devices in a memory system comprising:
- storing memory address information, memory data to be stored in the memory devices, and memory commands for controlling operation of the memory devices;
- automatically generating a plurality of sequential values;
- and
- outputting stored memory address information, memory data, and memory commands, based upon the generated sequential values.
A memory controller emulator comprising:
- at least one storage device for storing signal information representing signals transmitted from a memory controller to a memory module;
- and
- an address generator coupled to the at least one storage device, the address generator configured to output address information, the at least one storage device configured to output signal information based upon address information received from the address generator.
