SHARED ACCESS MEMORY SCHEME

摘要

A memory device loops back control information from one interface to another interface to facilitate sharing of the memory device by multiple devices. In some aspects, a memory controller sends control and address information to one interface of a memory device when accessing the memory device. The memory device may then loop back this control and address information to another interface that is used by another memory controller to access the memory device. The other memory controller may then use this information to determine how to access the memory device. In some aspects a memory device loops back arbitration information from one interface to another interface thereby enabling controller devices that are coupled to the memory device to control (e.g., schedule) accesses of the memory device.
