Abstract

Apparatuses and methods for setting operational parameters of a memory based on location are disclosed. The operational parameters may include operational parameters for an input/output circuit. For example, operational parameters may be for output driver circuit impedance, equalization for input receiver circuits, termination impedance, as well as others. Location information is provided to a memory device and used for setting the operational parameter. A nominal operational parameter setting may be offset based on the location information, thereby tailoring the operational parameter of the memory device according to location in some examples. The location information may be memory slot address for location based on memory module location. The location information may be related to a location of a memory device within a sub-system. The location information may be provided to unused terminals of a memory device, for example, unused data terminals in some examples.
