摘要:
A system includes a random access memory organized into indivudally addressable words. Streaming access control circuitry is coupled to word lines of the random access memory. The streaming access control circuitry responds to a request to access a plurality of individually addressable words of a determined region of the random access memory by generating control signals to drive the word lines to streamingly access the plurality of individually addressable words of the determined region. The request indicates an offset associated with the determined region and a pattern associated with the streaming access.

Provided is a bit error rate equalizing method of a memory device. The memory device selectively performs an error correction code (ECC) interleaving operation according to resistance distribution characteristics of memory cells, when writing a codeword including information data and a parity bit of the information data to a memory cell array. In the ECC interleaving operation according to one example, an ECC sector including information data is divided into a first ECC sub-sector and a second ECC sub-sector, the first ECC sub-sector is written to memory cells of a first memory area having a high bit error rate (BER), and the second ECC sub-sector is written to memory cells of a second memory area having a low BER.

One embodiment describes a quantum memory system. The system includes a plurality of quantum memory cells arranged in an array of rows and columns. Each of the plurality of quantum memory cells can be configured to store a binary logic state in response to write currents in a write operation and configured to provide an indication of the binary logic state in response to read currents in a read operation. The system also includes an array controller comprising a plurality of flux pumps configured to provide the write currents and the read currents with respect to the rows and columns. The array controller can be configured to control timing associated with the write operation and the read operation in response to memory request signals based on application of the write currents and the read currents and based on recharging flux associated with the plurality of flux pumps.

A memory access command, column address and plurality of write data values are received within an integrated-circuit memory chip via external signaling links. In response to the memory access command, the integrated-circuit memory chip (i) decodes the column address to select address-specified sense amplifiers from among a plurality of sense amplifiers that constitute a sense amplifier bank, (ii) reads first data, constituted by a plurality of read data values, out of the address-specified sense amplifiers, and (iii) overwrites the first data within the address-specified sense amplifiers with second data constituted by one or more of the write data values and by one or more of the read data values.

The present disclosures concerns a register cell (1) comprising a differential amplifying portion (2) containing a first inverter (3) coupled to a second inverter (3') such as to form an unbalanced flip-flop circuit; a first and second bit line (BL0, BL1) connected to one end of the first and second inverter (3, 3'), respectively; and a first and second source line (SL0, SL1) connected to the other end of the first and second inverter (3, 3'), respectively; characterized by the register cell (1) further comprising a first and second magnetic tunnel junction (6, 6') electrically connected to the other end of the first and second inverter (3, 3'), respectively. The shift register disclosed herein can be made smaller than conventional shift registers and power consumption during the write and read operation of the shift registers can be low. The shift register disclosed herein can be made smaller than conventional shift registers and power consumption during the write and read operation of the shift registers can be low.

The present invention includes a memory subsystem comprising at least two semiconductor devices (15, 16, 17), including at least one memory device (15, 16 or 17), connected to a bus (18), where the bus includes a plurality of bus lines for carrying substantially all address, data and control information needed by said memory devices (15, 16 or 17), where the control information includes device-select information and the bus (18) has substantially fewer bus lines than the number of bits in a single address, and the bus (18) carries device-select information without the need for separated device-select lines connected directly to individual devices. The present invention also includes a protocol for master and slave devices to communicate on the bus (18) and for registers in each device to differentiate each device and allow bus requests to be directed to a single or to all devices (15, 16, 17). The present invention includes modifications to prior-art devices to allow them to implement the new features of this invention. In a preferred implementation, 8 bus data lines and an Address Valid bus line carry address, data and control information for memory addresses up to 40 bits wide.
