Abstract
A random access memory is connected to a processing unit through a memory interface. Access to the random access is memory is controlled by a process. The memory interface receives a request for access to the memory issued by the processing unit. In response to the request, the memory interface indicates to the processing unit that the memory is not available to receive another access request during a duration of unavailability. This duration can be differentiated depending on whether the received request is a write or read request. The value of the duration of unavailability associated with a write request and the value of the duration of unavailability associated with a read request are individually programmable independently of each other.
