Apparatuses and methods for configurable memory array bank architectures are described. An example apparatus includes a mode register configured to store information related to bank architecture and a memory array including a plurality of memory banks. The plurality of memory banks are configured to be arranged in a bank architecture based at least in part on the information related to bank architecture stored in the mode register.

An apparatus is described. The apparatus includes logic circuitry to multiplex on a data bus a first data burst, a second data burst, a third data burst and a fourth data burst having different respective base target addresses that respectively target a first memory rank, a second memory rank, a third memory rank and a fourth memory rank. A first data transfer for the first data burst occurs on a first edge of a first pulse of a data strobe signal for the data bus and a second data transfer for the second data burst occurs on a second edge of the first pulse of the data strobe signal. A third data transfer for the third data burst occurs on a first edge of a second pulse of the data strobe signal for the data bus and a fourth data transfer for the fourth data burst occurs on a second edge of the second pulse. The second pulse immediately follows the first pulse on the data strobe signal. The first memory rank, the second memory rank, the third memory rank and the fourth memory rank are on a same memory module.
