Abstract
A memory control circuit coupled to multiple memory ranks may receive read and write requests for a different ranks of the multiple memory ranks. The memory control may allocate write requests to different slots based on the write requests target memory rank, and may adjust the number of slots available for a given memory rank during a write turn to improve write efficiency. The memory control circuit may also determine a number of ranks switches within a read turn based on whether a particular quality-of-service requirement associated with the read requests is being satisfied.
