Abstract
Systems, apparatuses, and methods related to a controller architecture for read data alignment are described. An example method can include sending a first notification from a physical layer to each of a number of memory controllers, wherein the first notification indicates that the physical layer and/or a memory device coupled to the physical layer is busy, and blocking commands on each of the number of memory controllers in response to receiving the first notification to cause read data alignment. The method can also include sending a second notification from the physical layer to each of the number of memory controllers, wherein the second notification indicates that the physical layer and/or the memory device coupled to the physical layer is no longer busy, and resuming processing commands on each of the number of memory controllers in response to receiving the second notification.
