    摘要: A memory subsystem enables a refresh abort command. A memory controller can issue an abort for an in-process refresh command sent to a memory device. The refresh abort enables the memory controller to more precisely control the timing of operations executed by memory devices in the case where a refresh command causes refresh of multiple rows of memory. The memory controller can issue a refresh command during active operation of the memory device, which is active operation refresh as opposed to self-refresh when the memory device controls refreshing. The memory controller can then issue a refresh abort during the refresh, and prior to completion of the refresh. The memory controller thus has deterministic control over both the start of refresh as well as when the memory device can be made available for access.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a charge storage element, a read transistor, and a write transistor. The charge storage element is for preserving a first data voltage. The read transistor has a first terminal coupled to the charge storage element, a second terminal coupled to a read bit line, and a control terminal coupled to a read word line. The write transistor has a first terminal coupled to the first terminal of the read transistor, a second terminal coupled to a write bit line, and a control terminal coupled to a write word line. The semiconductor memory device is able to perform a read operation and a write operation to the charge storage element simultaneously through the read transistor and the write transistor.

    摘要: A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory unit, a volatile memory unit, a power supply control unit configured to control power supply to the nonvolatile memory unit and the volatile memory unit, and a control unit configured to control the power supply unit to cut off the power supply to the nonvolatile memory unit and the volatile memory unit during a first operation, and control the power supply unit to cut off the power supply to the nonvolatile memory unit and to maintain the power supply to the volatile memory unit during a second operation that is different from the first operation.
