Zusammenfassung:A system and method for expanding the command set of a memory controller is provided. In one implementation, the method includes decoding a first plurality of commands through a command decoding state machine, and in response to the command decoding state machine decoding an extended command, waking the microcontroller to process an additional command other than a command among the first plurality of commands. The extended command is a command that notifies the microcontroller of the additional command to be processed. ® KIPO & WIPO 2009
