Abstract
The systems and methods provided herein acquire a command over multiple clock cycles and fires it. When a chip select signal (CS) transitions, a first portion of a command address is captured in a first clock cycle after the CS transitions. Then, a second portion of the command address is captured in a second clock cycle immediately after the first clock cycle or in a third clock cycle immediately following the second clock cycle. An internal command is fired, using the first portion of the command address and the second portion of the command address.
