4.2.6. AFI Tracking Management Signals

When tracking management is enabled, the sequencer can take control over the AFI 4.0 interface at given intervals, and issue commands to the memory device to track the internal DQS Enable signal alignment to the DQS signal returning from the memory device. The tracking management portion of the AFI 4.0 interface provides a means for the sequencer and the controller to exchange handshake signals.
