Abstract
An apparatus includes a transmitter and a controller. The transmitter may be configured to transmit data stored in a memory. The controller may be configured to (i) train one or more transmit parameters of the transmitter to synchronize transmission of the data with a clock signal while in a first mode, (ii) save the transmit parameters in response to a command received while the transmitter is in the first mode, and (iii) configure the transmitter to transmit the data while in a second mode using the transmit parameters as learned while in the first mode.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a transmitter configured to transmit data stored in a memory;
- and
- a controller configured to (i) train one or more transmit parameters of said transmitter to synchronize transmission of said data with a clock signal while in a first mode, (ii) save said transmit parameters in response to a command received while said transmitter is in said first mode, and (iii) configure said transmitter to transmit said data while in a second mode using said transmit parameters as learned while in said first mode.
A method for synchronization after a memory mode switch, comprising the steps of:
- storing data in a memory;
- training one or more transmit parameters of a transmitter to synchronize transmission of said data with a clock signal while in a first mode;
- saving said transmit parameters in response to a command received by a controller while said transmitter is in said first mode;
- and
- configuring said transmitter to transmit said data while in a second mode using said transmit parameters as learned while in said first mode.
