Abstract

A method and apparatus for accessing a memory device. The method includes providing control signals for an access command to the memory device via an asynchronous interface and transmitting data for the access command to the memory device. The method also includes encoding, into the transmitted data, a clock signal. The encoded clock signal in the transmitted data is used by the memory device for receiving the data transmission.
