Abstract
In general, techniques are described for initializing a memory module in accordance with a programmable initialization sequence. A memory controller, for example, includes a programmable computer-readable medium that stores configuration data to control initialization of one or more memory modules. The memory controller includes an initialization control unit that outputs a sequence of commands to initialize the memory modules in accordance with the configuration data. The initialization control unit may select the sequence of commands from a set of predefined initialization sequences based on the configuration data.
