Abstract
An apparatus and method for changing the extra margin adjustment (EMA) for a memory is disclosed. A control unit may access a table responsive to an indication of a change of operating point. The table includes a number of different delay times, each of which corresponds to a particular operating point. The control unit may select the delay time that corresponds to the new operating point to which the memory operation is being changed. The control unit may further convey an indication of the selected delay time to the memory, thereby causing the memory to operate according thereto.
