Abstract

The invention is directed to a memory controller and an associated signal generating method. By appropriately arranging a sequence according to which command signals are generated and expanding a latching interval of a part of address signals, not only the memory controller is enabled to control the DDR memory modules in a functional manner to further overcome issues of conventionally small latching intervals, but also system stability and access performance are reinforced as the memory access clock speed continue to increase.
