Abstract
A memory controller configured according to a delay pair for communicating with a memory device automatically selects optimal delay pairs by testing whether successful communication exists at various values for the delay pairs. The resulting set of delay pairs allowing successful communication are divided into a boundary set and non-boundary set. An optimal delay pair from the non-boundary set is chosen according to its relationship to delay pairs in the boundary set.
