ABSTRACT:
A method and an apparatus to track transition of a flag signal for DRAM data transfer have been disclosed. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes one or more memory devices, coupled to a data bus, to receive a command signal, wherein the command signal initiates a set of data transfer operations to transfer data between the data bus and one of the one or more memory devices; and a timing unit, coupled to the one or more memory devices, to receive the command signal, a flag signal, and a memory select signal, the timing unit to generate a trigger signal, in response to a transition of the flag signal, to complete the data transfer operations if the memory select signal corresponds to the one of the one or more memory devices. Other embodiments have been claimed and described.
