Abstract

An illustrative embodiment disclosed is a circuit including an edge-triggered flip-flop having a first input port, a first clock port, and a first output port. The edge-triggered flip-flop receives, at the first clock port, a strobe having a first edge and a second edge. The edge-triggered flip-flop receives, at the first input port, a control byte time-aligned with the first edge and a data byte time-aligned with the second edge. The edge-triggered flip-flop passes, to the first output port, the control byte based on the first edge and the data byte based on the second edge. The circuit includes an inputs/outputs (I/O) decoder coupled to the first output port. The I/O decoder sends the control byte to microcontroller and sends the data byte to memory cells.
