| Abstract | A memory system having a master device and a plurality of memory
subsystems, including first and second memory subsystems coupled to a
first bus. Each memory subsystem includes a plurality of memory devices.
The master device transmits a request for a read operation onto the first
bus to access data from at least one memory device included in at least
one memory subsystem. The first and second memory subsystems each include
a transceiver device, a bus, and first and second memory devices. Each
transceiver device connects to the first bus. The bus of each memory
subsystem connects to each respective transceiver device, wherein each
transceiver device is coupled between the first bus and each respective
memory subsystem bus. The first and second memory devices in each memory
subsystem are coupled respective transceiver devices via respective buses. |
