DYNAMIC SELECTION OF OUTPUT DELAY IN A MEMORY CONTROL DEVICE

In an example, a memory control device includes an output circuit, an output delay unit, and a write-levelization controller. The output circuit is coupled to provide an output signal comprising a data signal or data strobe signal for a synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) system having a plurality of ranks. The output delay unit is coupled to apply an output delay to a bitstream to be transmitted to generate the output signal. The output delay includes an aggregate of a de-skew delay and a write-levelization delay. The write-levelization delay controller is coupled to adjust the write-levelization delay for each write transaction to the SDRAM system of a plurality of write transactions based on a selected rank of the plurality of ranks. The de-skew delay is the same across the plurality of ranks for each of the plurality of write transactions.
