Abstract
A memory controller includes logic to determine corresponding reference voltage values and delay values for one or more memory devices. The memory controller includes a command-address (CA) interface to send a command to a memory device to set a reference voltage value of the memory device to a test value, a data interface to write a data pattern to the memory device and read the data pattern from the memory device, and test reference voltage logic to perform a density check on at least a portion of the data pattern read from the memory device and determine whether the test value is a potential reference voltage value based on the density check. An operational reference voltage value selected from one or more potential reference voltage values may be used to determine a delay value.
