Selectively controlling clock transmission to a data (DQ) system

Abstract:

An apparatus may include a delay line that receives a command signal and provides a delayed command signal. The apparatus may include an edge starter that provides a clock enable signal responsive, at least in part, to a change in level of the command signal. A gate circuit of the apparatus may provide a shift clock signal responsive, at least in part, to the clock enable signal. The apparatus may also include a shifter that captures and shifts the delay command signal responsive, at least in part, to the shift clock signal.
