Abstract
A memory system includes a memory controller and a memory component coupled to each other. The memory controller includes an interface to receive a first signal and a second signal from the memory component, wherein the first signal comprises a first symbol and the second signal comprises a second symbol. A first circuit of the memory controller receives the first signal by sampling the first symbol using a first timing offset relative to a reference clock signal, and a second circuit of the memory controller receives the second signal by sampling the second symbol using a second timing offset relative to the reference clock signal. The first timing offset is independent of the second timing offset.
