Abstract

A memory device includes a command interface configured to receive write commands from a host device. The memory device also includes an input buffer configured to buffer data from the host device. The memory device further includes a write shifter configured to receive a first write command of the write commands and to shift the first command through the write shifter. The write shifter is also configured to cause the input buffer to be disabled after a first threshold of clock cycles when the first write command has shifted through the write shifter. The write shifter is additionally configured to receive a second write command and prevent the input buffer from being re-enabled until the second write command has shifted through a second threshold of stages of the write shifter.
