Abstract

Circuit and methods provide for adjustable power consumption using a plurality of memory controllers. In one example, a first memory controller has a first power consumption level. A second memory controller has a second power consumption level that differs from the first power consumption level. Memory controller bypass logic is connected to the first and second memory controllers and selects for a memory client at least one of the first and second memory controllers in response to a change in a power conservation condition.
