摘要:
A method and apparatus for accommodating delay variations among multiple signals are provided. According to one embodiment of the invention, transitions of one or more of a plurality of lines between different levels are detected. The timing of a signal affecting recovery of information from the plurality of lines is adjusted according to the transitions detected. Examples of such a signal include one or more signals carried on one or more of the plurality of lines and a timing signal carried on a line separate from the plurality of lines.

A USB plug receptacle includes a connector substrate having a tongue portion having a first set of electrical contact pins disposed on a top surface of the tongue portion, a second set of a plurality of electrical pins disposed on a bottom surface of the tongue portion, a third set of electrical contact pins disposed on an opposite end of the tongue portion. The USB plug receptacle further includes a metal case made of a sheet of electrically conductive metal plate by blanking the sheet into a generally tubular shape to receive and enclose the connector substrate. When the connector substrate is inserted into the metal case, the third set of electrical contact pins are exposed outside of the metal case and the third set of electrical contact pins can be mounted on first and second sets of electrical contact pads of a printed circuit board assembly.

Methods and systems of managing memory addresses in a large capacity multi-level cell based flash memory device are described. According to one aspect, a flash memory device comprises a processing unit to manage logical-to-physical address correlation using an indexing scheme. The flash memory is partitioned into N sets. Each set includes a plurality of entries (i.e., blocks). N sets of partial logical entry number to physical block number and associated page usage information (hereinafter ‘PLTPPUI’) are stored in the reserved area of the MLC based flash memory. Only one the N sets is loaded to address correlation and page usage memory (ACPUM), which is a limited size random access memory (RAM). In one embodiment, static RAM (SRAM) is implemented for fast access time for the address correlation. LSA received together with the data transfer request dictates which one of the N sets of PLTPPUI is loaded into ACPUM.

A memory module includes a first signal line to carry a first signal. The first signal line has (i) a first line segment disposed along a length of the memory module and coupled to a termination, and (ii) a second line segment disposed along a width of the memory module and coupled to an edge finger. The first line segment and the second line segment are coupled together at a turn. A first synchronous memory device and a second synchronous memory device are coupled to the first line segment. The first signal arrives at the first synchronous memory device and the second synchronous memory device in a sequential manner. The memory module includes a clock line routed alongside the first signal line. A clock signal arrives at the first synchronous memory device and the second synchronous memory device in sequence alongside the first signal traversing along the first signal line.

A portable USB device with an improved configuration is described herein. According to one embodiment, a portable USB device includes a core unit having a USB plug connector coupled to one or more flash memory devices and a flash controller disposed therein, where the flash controller is capable of exchanging data with a host via the USB plug connector using a bulk-only-transfer protocol. The portable USB device further includes a housing for enclosing the core unit, including a front end opening to allow the USB plug connector to be deployed. The portable USB device further includes a core unit carrier for carrying the core unit for deploying and retracting the core unit, including a slide button to allow a finger of a user to slide the USB plug connector of the core unit in and out of the housing via the front end opening of the housing.
摘要:
A semiconductor memory device includes a memory core, a first interface to receive write data from a first set of interconnect resources, and a second interface, separate from the first interface, to receive from a second set of interconnect resources a column address and a first code. The column address is associated with the write data and identifies a column of the memory core in which to store the write data. The first code indicates whether the write data is selectively masked by data mask information. If the first code indicates that the write data is selectively masked, the second interface is to receive data mask information specifying whether to selectively write portions of the write data to the memory core.
摘要:
A system and method for reconciling transaction data, including identifying one or more transactions to be reconciled; aggregating one or more potential matching purchase orders; and creating a proposal that identifies one or more purchase orders that may correlate to the transaction to be reconciled, wherein creating a proposal comprises performing one or more search iterations to identify one or more purchase orders that fit within one or more parameters of the search iterations.

A memory module includes a signal line to carry a signal that traverses the signal line until reaching a termination at an end of the signal line. The module includes a clock line to carry a clock signal that traverses the clock line alongside the signal until the signal reaches a second termination at an end of the clock line. The module includes a first memory device connected to the signal line and the clock line such that the signal and the clock signal arrive at the first memory device at substantially the same time. The module includes a second memory device connected to the signal line and the clock line such that the signal and the clock signal arrive at the second memory device at substantially the same time and after the signal and the clock signal arrive at the first memory device.
