Abstract

A method of training a command signal for a memory module. The method includes programming a memory controller into a mode where a single bit of an address signal is active for a single clock cycle. The method then programs a programmable delay line of the address signal with a delay value and performs initialization of the memory module. The memory module is then placed in a write leveling mode. A write leveling procedure is then performed and a response to the write leveling procedure is determined from the memory module. A determination is made whether the memory module is in a pass state or an error state based on the response.
