Abstract

See full text

A method, apparatus and system. The method includes: performing one or more training iterations to tune a target clock signal frequency to be applied at a memory device, each of the one or more training iterations including: causing a modified clock signal frequency to be applied at the memory device; and decoding a quality feedback message from the memory device including an indication of a performance of the clock signal frequency at the memory device; and in response to a determination that the performance of the clock signal frequency falls within a target performance range of the memory device and that the clock signal frequency is below the target clock signal frequency, performing a subsequent training iteration of the one or more training iterations, and otherwise causing application at the memory device, during a memory operation, of a highest clock signal frequency corresponding to a training iteration for which performance of the clock signal was within the target performance range.
