Abstract:
Apparatuses and techniques for operating devices with multiple differential write clock signals having different phases are described. For example, a memory controller (e.g., of a host device) can provide two differential write clock signals to a memory device over an interconnect. The two differential write clock signals may have a phase offset of approximately ninety degrees. Instead of generating its own phase-delayed write clock signals using a component (e.g., a clock divider circuit) that can enter the metastable state, the memory device can use the multiple differential write clocks signals provided by the memory controller to process memory requests.
