Abstract
Apparatus facilitating peak power management include a plurality of dies, with each such die comprising an array of memory cells, a controller for performing access operations on the array of memory cells, and a counter configured to be responsive to a clock signal. A particular die of a first subset of dies of the plurality of dies comprises a clock generator for generating the clock signal. Each die of the first subset of dies is configured to be selectively enabled to receive commands in response to a first chip enable signal, and each die of a second subset of dies of the plurality of dies is configured to be selectively enabled to receive commands in response to a second chip enable signal independent of the first chip enable signal, wherein the first subset of dies and the second subset of dies are mutually exclusive.
