Abstract
A memory circuit power management system and method are provided. In use, an interface circuit is in communication with a plurality of memory circuits and a system. The interface circuit is operable to interface the memory circuits and the system for performing a power management operation in association with at least a portion of the memory circuits. Such power management operation is performed during a latency associated with one or more commands directed to at least a portion of the memory circuits.
