Abstract
A method for communicating with memory, performed by a memory controller, is provided. The method includes sampling reads from a plurality of memory devices and storing first calibration points in first buffers, based on the sampling, with at least one first calibration point and corresponding first buffer for each of the plurality of memory devices. The method includes sampling a read from a second memory device in background while performing a read from a first memory device using the first calibration point in the first buffer corresponding to the first memory device. The method includes storing a second calibration point in a second buffer, for the second memory device, based on the sampling in the background, with the first buffer for the second memory device having the first calibration point used for ongoing reads of the second memory device.
