Abstract
An apparatus includes a detector circuit and a data buffer. The detector circuit may be configured to (i) identify a start of a command sequence associated with a directed access to a memory system and (ii) generate a control signal indicating a non-consecutive clock associated with the start of the command sequence. The data buffer circuit may be configured to initialize a condition of a receiver circuit in response to the control signal prior to reception of a first data bit associated with the command sequence.
