    摘要: A non-volatile memory device and methods for operating the same are provided. The memory device may have multiple complementary memory cells. The method of blank check includes detecting a state value of each of the true and complementary transistors, generating an upper state value, Wherein a first predetermined amount of the true and complementary transistors have greater state values than the upper state value, generating a lower state value, wherein a second predetermined amount of the true and complementary transistors have less state values than the lower state value, generating a state value range based on a difference between the upper state value and the lower state value, and comparing the state value range to a threshold value to determine whether the plurality of complementary memory cells is in a blank state or a non-blank state. Other embodiments are also disclosed herein.

    摘要: A nonvolatile memory device can include a serial port having at least one serial clock input, and at least one serial data input/output (I/O) configured to receive command, address and write data in synchronism with the at least one serial clock input. At least one parallel port can include a plurality of command address inputs configured to receive command and address data in groups of parallel bits and a plurality of unidirectional data outputs configured to output read data in parallel on rising and falling edges of a data clock signal. Each of a plurality of banks can include nonvolatile memory cells and be configurable for access by the serial port or the parallel port. When a bank is configured for access by the serial port, the bank is not accessible by the at least one parallel port. Related methods and systems are also disclosed.

    摘要: A memory device that includes a first port and a second port. The first port includes a first clock input, at least one first command address input, and at least one data input or output configured to transfer data in relation to the memory device. The second port includes a second clock input and at least one command, address, and data input/output (I/O) configured to receive command and address information from, and to transfer data in relation to the memory device. The memory device also includes a plurality of memory banks, in which two different memory banks may be accessed respectively by the first and the second ports concurrently. Other embodiments of the memory device and related methods and systems are also disclosed.
