Abstract
A memory interface circuit includes a first receiver coupled to a differential data strobe signal and a second receiver that has a first input coupled to a reference voltage source and a second input coupled to one of the pair of complementary signals. A qualification circuit is configured to detect a preamble transmission in the differential data strobe signal based on timing provided by an output of the first receiver when the memory interface circuit is in a first operating state, detect the preamble transmission in the differential data strobe signal based on timing provided by an output of the second receiver when the memory interface circuit is in a second operating state, and assert a preamble detection signal when the preamble transmission is detected. A gating circuit is configured to provide a receive clock signal when the preamble detection signal is asserted.
