Abstract

Method and devices include a shifter that is configured to receive a write command for a memory device and is configured to produce multiple shifted write commands from the write command. Multiple flip-flops that are configured to receive a subset of the multiple shifted write commands from the shifter. The multiple flip-flops also are configured to output an indicator of whether subsequent write commands of the subset of write commands is asserted when the write command has completed shifting through the shifter as a write start signal.
