Command delay

Abstract:

An apparatus includes a memory component, a delay component, and a command component coupled to the delay component. The command component can be configured to enter a received command associated with accessing a physical address in the memory component into an execution queue and mark the command as active. The command component can be configured to send the active command to the memory component to be executed. The command component can be configured to clear the active command from the execution queue in response to receiving a message from the memory component, via the delay component, indicating the active command has been executed. The delay component can be configured to delay the message from the memory component a particular period of time before sending the message to the command component.
