One embodiment provides an electronic system including a delay locked loop and a control circuit. The delay locked loop is configured to be enabled and update lock state data and to be disabled and store the locked state data. The control circuit is configured to periodically enable the delay locked loop in standby mode at an update interval and for an enable period. The control circuit controls the length of the update interval and the length of the enable period to adjust lock state acquisition time for the delay locked loop in exiting the standby mode.
