摘要:
A memory system includes a variable resistance memory configured to input and output data by a first unit and a translation layer for managing the degree of wear of the variable resistance memory by a second unit, different from the first unit.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a mapping information managing apparatus and method for a non-volatile memory supporting different cell types, and more particularly, to a mapping information managing apparatus and method for a non-volatile memory supporting different cell types capable of managing mapping information considering physical characteristics of each cell type in the non-volatile memory supporting different cell types in which bits represented by one cell are different from each other. A mapping information managing apparatus for a non-volatile memory supporting different cell types includes: a user request unit used for a user to request a predetermined operation by using a logical address; a non-volatile memory comprising a plurality of memory areas having different cell types; and a mapping information managing unit storing mapping information on user data written to a second memory area of the plurality of memory areas in a first memory area.
摘要:
Provided is an apparatus and method for managing mapping information of a nonvolatile memory, in which a time period required for a request for access to a logic sector of the nonvolatile memory is minimized. The apparatus includes an extractor which extracts a logical sector mapped with each physical sector in physical units mapped with a predetermined logical unit, a mapping information generator which generates mapping information of logical sectors belonging to the logical unit including the extracted logical sector, and a mapping information memory which stores the generated mapping information.
摘要:
A memory device capable of performing an overwrite operation, a memory system, and a method of operating the memory system are provided. The method includes receiving one or more write requests, a logical address and data corresponding to the one or more write requests; comparing a result of analyzing at least one of the received one or more write requests, logical address, and data with a threshold value; and writing data using a first update method or a second update method, based on a result of the comparison. When the first update method is selected, the data are written in a region indicated by a physical address corresponding to the logical address according to address mapping information. When the second update method is selected, information of the physical address corresponding to the logical address is changed, and the data are written in a region indicated by the changed physical address.

A data management system includes a data processor configured to provide a file system module configured to store first data in a flash memory in block units and a filter layer module configured to receive second data from the file system module and to store the second data in a phase-change random access memory (PRAM) in sub-block units. The filter layer module may be configured to identify difference data in the second data received from the file system module by comparing the received second data and third data stored in the PRAM, and to write the identified difference data to the PRAM. The second data may include file metadata and the first data may include data other than file metadata. The sub-block units may be byte units.

A computing system, more particularly, a computing system including a phase-change memory is provided. The computing system includes a flash memory configured to store data and a phase-change memory configured to store address mapping information for converting a logical address into a physical address. The phase-change memory is configured to store the address mapping information while the computing system is in a power-off state. The computing system may store an address mapping table to manage the flash memory in the phase-change memory.
