    Abstract: A multi-chip package, a controlling method of the multi-chip package and a security chip are provided. The multi-chip package includes a memory chip and a security chip. The security chip is coupled between the memory chip and a host. The security chip includes a processing circuit. The processing circuit is for enabling a security path to input an input-output signal into the processing circuit for executing a security procedure and accessing the memory chip, if a command is received by the processing circuit and the command includes a security requirement.

    Abstract: A memory device includes command logic allowing for a command protocol allowing interruption of a first command sequence, such as a page write sequence, and then to proceed directly to receive and decode a second command sequence, such as a read sequence, without latency associated, completing the first command sequence. Also, the command logic is configured to be responsive to a third command sequence after the second command sequence and its associated embedded operation have been completed, which completes the interrupted first command sequence and enables execution of an embedded operation identified by the first command sequence. A memory controller supporting such protocols is described.

    Abstract: A nested wrap-around technology includes an address counter and associated logic for generating addresses to perform a nested wrap-around access operation. The nested wrap-around access operation may be a read or a write operation. A wrap-around section length and a wrap-around count define a wrap-around block. A wrap starting address, initially set to a supplied start address, is offset from a lower boundary of a wrap-around section. Access starts at a wrap starting address and proceeds in a wrap-around manner within a wrap-around section. After access of the address immediately preceding the wrap starting address, the wrap starting address is incremented by the wrap-around section length, or, if the wrap-around section is the last one in the wrap-around block, the wrap starting address is set to the lower boundary of the wrap-around block plus the offset. Access continues until a termination event.

    Abstract: A method of operating a memory device storing ECCs for corresponding data is provided. The method includes writing an extended ECC during a first program operation, the extended ECC including an ECC and an extended bit derived from the ECC. The method includes overwriting the extended ECC with a pre-determined state during a second program operation to indicate the second program operation. The method includes, setting the ECC to an initial ECC state before the first program operation; during the first program operation, computing the ECC, changing the ECC to the initial ECC state if the computed ECC equals the pre-determined state; and changing the extended bit to an initial value if the ECC equals the initial ECC state. The method includes reading an extended ECC including an extended bit and an ECC for corresponding data, and determining whether to enable ECC logic using the extended ECC.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes an output buffer and a control circuit. The output buffer has a signal input, a signal output, and a set of control inputs. The output buffer has an output buffer delay, and a driving strength adjustable in response to control signals applied to the set of control inputs. Alternatively, the output buffer delay is variable. The control circuit is connected to the set of control inputs of the output buffer. The control circuit uses first and second timing signals to generate the control signals, and can include a first delay circuit that generates the first timing signal with a first delay, and a second delay circuit that generates the second timing signal with a second delay that correlates with the output buffer delay.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit device includes a pad adapted to receive a signal from an external driver. A state register is programmed with a state that indicates a voltage level to set for the pad during initialization of circuitry on the integrated circuit device responsive to the state for the pad. The voltage level may correspond to a logic low level or a logic high level. A voltage holding circuit is coupled to the pad and the state register, and is configured to force the pad to the voltage level in response to an event that causes the initialization.
