Abstract

A memory device includes a command interface configured to receive a two-cycle command from a host device via multiple command address bits. The memory device also includes a command decoder configured to decode a first portion of the multiple command address bits in a first cycle of the two-cycle command. The command decoder includes mask circuitry. The mask circuitry includes mask generation circuitry configured to generate a mask signal. The mask circuitry also includes multiplexer circuitry configured to apply the mask signal to block the command decoder from decoding a second portion of the multiple command address bits in a second cycle of the two-cycle command.
