Abstract

A memory system includes a memory device, a command clock (CK_t clock) that provides a first clock signal at a first frequency, and a data path clock (WCK_t clock) that provides a second clock signal at a second frequency different than the first frequency. Data path circuitry is synchronized with the WCK_t clock and provides an error detection code (EDC) hold pattern during an idle state. EDC hold pattern synchronization logic synchronizes a start of transmission of the EDC hold pattern synchronous to the CK_t clock.
