    摘要: In one embodiment of the invention, a memory apparatus for improved write performance is disclosed. The memory apparatus includes a base printed circuit board (PCB) having an edge connector for plugging into a host server system; a card level power source to provide card level power during a power failure; a memory controller coupled to the card level power source and having one or more memory channels; and one or more non-volatile memory devices (NVMDs) coupled to the card level power source and organized to respectively couple to the memory channels controlled by the memory controller. Each memory controller provides queuing and scheduling of memory operations on a channel for each NVMD in the memory channels. Responsive to power failure, the memory controller receives card level power and changes the scheduling of memory operations to the NVMDs in each memory channel.

    摘要: A multiple-port memory device having at least first and second ports each configured to support read and write operations. The multiple-port memory device further comprises a single-port memory device and control circuitry coupled between the first and second ports and the single-port memory device. The control circuitry is configured to multiplex input signals received over the first and second ports of the multiple-port memory device into respective input time slots of the single port of the single-port memory device, and to demultiplex output time slots of the single port of the single-port memory device into output signals that are supplied over the first and second ports of the multiple-port memory device. In an illustrative embodiment, the single-port memory device operates at a clock rate that is an integer multiple of a clock rate of first and second memory drivers that supply the input signals to and receive the output signals from the respective first and second ports of the multiple-port memory device.
