Original Abstract Submitted

a method includes selecting a particular ready/busy pin (r/b#) among a plurality of r/b# pins that are associated with respective memory dice among a plurality of memory dice of a memory device. the method further includes receiving, by at least one memory dice among the plurality of memory dice, signaling indicative of performance of a memory access while the particular r/b# pin is set to low, and, initiating an internal clocking signal subsequent to receipt of the signaling indicative of performance of the memory access, wherein the internal clocking signal is associated with timing of operations performed by the plurality of memory dice.
