ABSTRACT:
A memory module having a termination component. The memory module includes first and second memory devices, a termination component and three sets of signal lines. A first set of signal lines is coupled to the first memory device and dedicated to data transfers involving the first memory device. A second signal lines is coupled to the second memory device and dedicated to data transfers involving the second memory device. A third set of signal lines is coupled to the first and second memory devices and the termination component such that a signal propagating on the third set of signal lines propagates past the first memory device before reaching the second memory device, and propagates past the second memory device before reaching the termination component.
