Abstract

Memory devices, systems including memory devices, and methods of operating memory devices are described, in which clock trees can be separately optimized to provide a coarse alignment between a clock signal and a command/address signal (and/or a chip select signal or other control signal), and/or in which individual memory devices can be isolated for fine-tuning of device-specific alignment between a clock signal and a command/address signal (and/or a chip select signal or other control signal). Moreover, individual memory devices can be isolated for fine-tuning of device-specific equalization of a command/address signal (and/or a chip select signal or other control signal).
