Abstract: A system is proposed to enable a hardware based host controller to perform operations related to Host-aware Performance booster (HPB). The host controller may retrieve a command packet from a host memory targeting a logical address of a storage location of the storage device, may retrieve a physical address of the storage device mapped to the logical address from the address map, and may send the command packet to the storage device. The sent command packet may have the physical address incorporated therein.

Abstract: Systems and method for a host-driven data refresh of a Flash memory include registers provided in the Flash memory for storing various settings related to refresh operations, such as, when to start/stop refreshing, target partitions in the memory, target start/end address ranges for refreshing, refresh algorithms, refresh rate requirements, etc. A host can control the various settings for start/stop refreshing, target partitions in the memory, target start/end address ranges for refreshing, refresh algorithms, through the corresponding registers; and the Flash memory can control various values related to refresh rate requirements through corresponding registers. In this manner, a standard platform or interface is provided within the Flash memory for refresh operations thereof.

Abstract: Shared built-in self-analysis of memory systems employing a memory array tile architecture is provided. To selectively control which memory tile among a plurality of memory tiles is accessed for a built-in self-analysis (BISA) operation, a shared BISA address issued from a shared BISA circuit includes a memory tile address. Each memory tile includes a unique fixed memory tile address that is compared to the received memory tile address of a received BISA address. If the memory tile address in the received BISA address matches the fixed memory tile address of a memory tile, the memory tile is activated to use the memory address in the BISA address to access addressed memory bit cells for analysis. Thus, if the memory system is redesigned to include additional memory tiles for increased capacity, the memory tile address size in the BISA address can be updated for addressing added memory tiles.

Abstract: A voltage self-boosting circuit for generating a boosted voltage for driving a word line write in a memory array for a memory write operation is provided. A voltage generation circuit(s) is configured to generate a read voltage for a memory read operation and a write voltage for a memory write operation based on a predefined supply voltage. For the memory write operation, a delay circuit delays the delay circuit enable signal by a predetermined delay to generate the output voltage control signal. Accordingly, the voltage generation circuit(s) generates boosted voltage that drives the write voltage to a selected word line(s). For the memory read operation, the voltage generation circuit(s) does not generate the boosted voltage and thus drives the read voltage to the selected word line(s). Hence, it is possible to reduce power consumption and timing delay during the memory read operation or the memory write operation.

Abstract: Removable memory card type detection systems and methods are disclosed. In one aspect, a removable memory card is inserted into a receptacle of a host. The host determines a type of removable memory card based upon either electrical or physical properties of the removable memory card. In this manner, if the host detects that the removable memory card possesses certain electrical or physical properties associated with a microSD card, the host determines that the removable memory card is a microSD type card. If the host detects that the removable memory card possesses certain electrical or physical properties associated with a UFS card, the host determines that the removable memory card is a UFS type card. By determining the card type based on detection of certain electrical or physical properties, aspects disclosed herein are able to distinguish between UFS and microSD cards without requiring an additional pin or card initialization time.

Abstract: A system for replacing a page stored in system memory when reading the page incurs a multiple-bit error. Upon reading a page in system memory for which a multiple-bit error is detected, backup data in flash memory is loaded into a redundant page in the system memory, and a re-mapper is configured so that future accesses to the page are redirected to the redundant page.

Abstract: Systems and method are directed to Universal Flash Storage (UFS) memory system configured to support deep power-down modes wherein the UFS memory system is not required to be responsive to commands received from a host device coupled to the UFS memory system. Correspondingly, in the deep power-down modes, a link or interface between the UFS memory system and the host device may also be powered down. The UFS memory system may enter the deep power-down modes based on a command received from the host device or a hardware reset assertion, and exit the deep power-down modes based on a hardware reset de-assertion or power cycling. While in deep power-down modes, the power consumption of the UFS memory device is substantially lower than the power consumption of the UFS memory device in conventional power modes.

Abstract: A method of scheduling universal flash storage (UFS) operations using a refresh handover mechanism is described. The method includes receiving, during refresh of a UFS device, a request for an input/output (I/O) operation. The method also includes handing over between a first type of refresh operation and a second type of refresh operation in response to the request for the I/O operation.
