Zusammenfassung:A memory bus comprising a plurality of latches arranged sequentially between a source node and a destination node of a channel of the memory bus; and a pulse generator. The pulse generator is operable to generate a sequence of pulses, each sequential pulse to be simultaneously received by the plurality of latches. A pulse is generated for each edge of a clock signal. A first latch of the plurality of latches is operable to pass on a first data sample while a first pulse is received by the first latch of the plurality of latches. A second latch of the plurality of latches is operable to pass on a second data sample towards the first latch of the plurality of latches while the first pulse is simultaneously received by the first and second latches of the plurality of latches.
