    摘要: In a storage medium, an address space is defined which is divided into a first area and a second area. According to the invention, at least one file is stored on the medium which is split into small data packets and large data packets. All small data packets are stored on said first area, and all large data packets are stored on said second area. A single file allocation table (FAT) is used and is small by having one entry per data packet.

    摘要: High speed mass storage devices using NAND flash memories (MDY.X) are suitable for recording and playing back a video data stream under real-time conditions, wherein the data are handled page-wise in the flash memories and are written in parallel to multiple memory buses (MBy). However, for operating with multiple independent data streams a significant buffer size is required. According to the invention, data from different data streams are collected in corresponding different buffers (FIFO 1, . . . , FIFO Z) until the amount of collected data in a current buffer corresponds to a current one of the data blocks. Then, the data of the current data block from the current buffer are stored into memories connected to a current one of the memory buses, wherein the following buffered data block of the related data stream is later on stored into memories connected to a following one of the memory buses, the number of the following memory bus being increased with respect to the number of the current memory bus. These steps are repeated, also for the other ones of the data streams using other available ones of the buffers and other ones of the memory buses. In combination with a corresponding buffer control it is possible to allocate and use a minimum number of buffers in a flexible way.

    摘要: A clock generation circuit comprises an internal clock signal source providing an internal clock signal and a synchronization device for synchronization the internal clock signal with a reference clock signal provided externally from the clock generation circuit. The synchronization device comprises n delay locked loop circuits, n being an integer greater than 1, each delay locked loop circuit having a clock input for receiving the internal clock signal and a clock output for providing an output clock signal with an individual phase shift that is adjustable. The synchronization device further comprises a multiplexer having n inputs and an output wherein each of the n inputs is connected to an output of one of the n delay locked loops and a control circuit. The control circuit is adapted to adjust at least one of the delay locked loop circuits for providing an individual phase shift according to a current phase shift and to select that input of the multiplexer that receives an output clock signal of the adjusted delay locked loop circuit that is synchronized in frequency and phase with the reference clock signal, wherein the output of the multiplexer provides that output clock signal as synchronized clock signal, and wherein the control circuit is adapted to toggle between the n delay locked loop circuits, in a way that the phase of the internal clock signal is successively shifted according to the current phase shift between the internal clock signal and the reference clock signal.
