Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for adjusting timing of memory access operations to a memory block. In one embodiment, a controller may be in communication with a memory block. The controller may be adapted to adjust timing of a memory access operation to the memory block by extending a portion of a clock pulse to compensate for delay associated with the memory block. The delay may correspond to a predecoder delay or a global decoder delay. The clock pulse may be a read clock pulse or a write clock pulse. In one embodiment, the controller may be adapted to adjust timing of a read clock pulse differently from a write clock pulse.
