In a method of accessing a single port memory, a plurality of read commands are received from a plurality of requestors for memory read access. A respective plurality of parameters corresponding to each of the plurality of read commands is stored in a memory read command queue. The parameters corresponding to one of the read commands are retrieved from the memory read command queue when the single port memory provides the data corresponding to that read command. One or more of the parameters from the memory read command queue are provided while providing the data from the memory.
