Self-timed strobe generator and method for use with multi-strobe random access memories to increase memory bandwidth

摘要

A circuit takes a reference strobe signal as a first input, and a strobe ready signal generated from a memory that is strobed by the reference strobe signal as a second input. The circuit generates a self-timed strobe signal along with other control signals that are used to perform a subsequent memory access in a single clock cycle, thereby doubling memory access bandwidth.
