Abstract: A variety of applications can include apparatus and/or methods that provide shared parity protection to data in memory devices of a memory system. Parity data of different data streams programmed into different blocks of one or more memory devices can be overlapped and wrapped into slots of a volatile memory arranged as a storage device for the parity data. A parity map of parity-to-data reflecting the overlapping of the parity data can be maintained in the volatile memory along with the overlapped parity. The parity map can be updated as parity data is generated from further programming of the data streams. The parity contents of the volatile memory, including the parity map, can be transferred to a non-volatile memory in response to a determination of an occurrence of a transfer criterion. The parity contents flushed to the non-volatile memory can be used to allow correct data reconstruction in case of failures in programming.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed, including using a memory controller to monitor at least one parameter related to power level of a host processor of a host device, and dynamically adjusting at least one of a clock frequency and a voltage level of an error-correcting code (ECC) subsystem of the memory controller based on the at least one parameter to control power usage of the host device.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed, including determining whether firmware has been successfully loaded and whether the firmware version is valid and operable, and if the firmware has not been successfully loaded or the firmware is not valid and operable, tracking a number of unsuccessful attempts to load the firmware or an elapsed time for unsuccessful attempts to load the firmware, and entering a memory device into a reduced-power state if either the number of unsuccessful attempts or the elapsed time has reached a programmable threshold.

Abstract: Systems and methods of memory operation involving dynamic adjustment of write policy based on performance needs are disclosed. In one embodiment, an exemplary method may comprise monitoring memory performance parameters related to a programming operation being scheduled, selecting a write policy based on the memory performance parameters monitored, executing a memory control process that is configured to switch between the first addressing scheme and the second addressing scheme, and programming a first superpage of the programming operation using the first addressing scheme and programing a second superpage of the programming operation using the second addressing scheme.

Abstract: Devices and techniques for efficient obfuscated logical-to-physical mapping are described herein. For example, activity corresponding to obfuscated regions of an L2P map for a memory device can be tracked. A record of discontinuity between the obfuscated regions and L2P mappings resulting from the activity can be updated. The obfuscated regions can be ordered based on a level of discontinuity from the record of discontinuity. When an idle period is identified, an obfuscated region from the obfuscated regions is selected and refreshed based on the ordering.

Abstract: A variety of applications can include a memory device having a memory die designed to control a power budget for a cache and a memory array of the memory die. A first flag received from a data path identifies a start of a cache operation on the data and a second flag from the data path identifies an end of the cache operation. A controller for peak power management can be implemented to control the power budget based on determination of usage of current associated with the cache from the first and second flags. In various embodiments, the controller can be operable to feedback a signal to a memory controller external to the memory die to adjust an operating speed of an interface from the memory controller to the memory die. Additional devices, systems, and methods are discussed.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed, including using a memory controller to partition a memory array into a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and second portion having non-overlapping logical block addressing (LBA) ranges. The memory controller assigns a first granularity of a first logical-to-physical (L2P) mapping table entry for the first portion of the memory array designated for a first usage, and a second granularity of a second L2P mapping table entry for the second portion of the memory array designated for a second usage, where the second granularity is not equal to the first granularity. The memory controller stores the first granularity and the second granularity in the memory array, and stores at least a portion of the first L2P mapping table entry and the second L2P mapping table entry in an L2P cache of the memory controller.
