ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing the number of interface lines and non-volatile memory devices in a computer system includes providing a non-volatile memory having a SDRAM style interface. A system having both non-volatile memory and SDRAM has reduced interface lines by providing only one memory interface. A system where the SDRAM interface logic is initialized by code stored in the non-volatile memory having a SDRAM style interface, eliminating any requirement for other non-volatile memory, independent of the SDRAM interface, from which to initialize the system.
