Abstract
A method for calibration of a memory controller may include determining if an unused memory location exists in memory. The method may include writing a first pattern to the unused memory location in response to a determination that the unused memory location exists. The method may include determining if a second pattern exists in the memory in response to a determination that the unused memory location does not exist. The method may include iteratively modifying a first delay of a first delay control module among a plurality of delay values. The method may include reading from a memory location including the first pattern or the second pattern for each iteration of modification of the first delay. The method may include modifying one or more second delays, each second delay associated with one of one or more second delay control modules, based on the results of reading from the memory location.
