A memory system includes a memory controller and a memory component coupled to
each other. An interface of the memory component is configured to receive a first
signal from the memory controller with read request information, retrieve the read
data information from the memory core in response to the request information, and
transmit to the memory controller a second signal containing the read data information.
The read data information includes read data symbols, where the average duration
of the read data symbols, measured at the interface, defines a symbol time interval.
A first external access time is measured at the interface between a first read
request and read data transmitted by the interface in response to the first read
request. A second external access time interval is measured at the interface between
a second read request and read data transmitted by the interface in response to
the second read request. The difference between the first external access time
and the second external access time is greater than one-half of the symbol time interval.
