Abstract:
Disclosed is a memory including a plurality of resistive change memory cells, including at least a first group and a second group of the memory cells and a comparison circuit configured to conduct a direct relative comparison of a remaining endurance of the first group of memory cells to a remaining endurance of the second group of memory cells.
Abstract:
A memory controller comprises a command interface to transmit a memory command to a plurality of memory devices associated with the memory controller. The memory controller also comprises an acknowledgement interface to receive an acknowledgment status packet from the plurality of memory devices over a shared acknowledgement link coupled between the memory controller and the plurality of memory devices, the acknowledgement status packet indicating whether the command was received by the plurality of memory devices. In addition, the memory controller comprises a memory controller core to decode the acknowledgment status packet to identify a portion of the acknowledgement status packet corresponding to each of the plurality of memory devices.
