Abstract

Apparatus facilitating peak power management are useful in mitigating excessive current levels within a multi-die package. For example, such apparatus may include an array of memory cells, a controller for performing an access operation on the array of memory cells, an input buffer having an input connected to a clock signal line and having an output, a clock generator for generating an internal clock signal, an output buffer having an input connected to receive the internal clock signal and having an output connected to the clock signal line, and a counter for counting pulses of a particular clock signal selected from a group consisting of the internal clock signal from the clock generator and an external clock signal from the output of the input buffer.
