摘要: Techniques for writing to memory using adaptive write techniques. An adaptive write technique includes receiving at a computer a message including a plurality of symbols. The message is written to a memory. The writing to memory includes performing for each symbol in the message: writing a data value to a memory location in the memory and reading contents of the memory location after the data value has been written. The data value is determined at the computer in response to the symbol and to the contents of any memory locations previously read as part of writing the message to the memory. It is determined at the computer if the contents of the memory locations reflect the message. The writing is restarted at the computer in response to determining that the contents of the memory locations do not reflect the message.

摘要: Techniques for writing to memory using shared address buses. A memory device that includes a plurality of memory arrays connected to a common address bus, the common address bus used to broadcast memory addresses simultaneously to the plurality of memory arrays. Each memory array includes a plurality of memory locations and circuitry for: receiving the broadcasted memory addresses from the address bus; selecting a memory address in the memory array from a list of most recent memory addresses received from the address bus; and performing a memory access at the selected memory address, such that at a given point in time at least two of the memory arrays perform the memory access at a different broadcasted address when the memory access is a write.

摘要: Techniques for reading phase change memory that mitigate resistance drift. One contemplated method includes apply a plurality of electrical input signals to the memory cell. The method includes measuring a plurality of electrical output signals from the memory cell resulting from the plurality of electrical input signals. The method includes calculating an invariant component of the plurality of electrical output signals dependent on the configuration of amorphous material in the memory cell. The method also includes determining a memory state of the memory cell based on the invariant component. In one embodiment of the invention, the method further includes mapping the plurality of electrical output signals to a measurements region of a plurality of measurements regions. The measurements regions correspond to memory states of the memory cell.

摘要: Techniques are presented that include determining, for data to be written to a nonvolatile memory, a location in the nonvolatile memory to which the data should be written based at least on one or more wear metrics corresponding to the location. The one or more wear metrics are based on measurements of the location. The measurements estimate physical wear of the location. The techniques further include writing the data to the determined location in the nonvolatile memory. The techniques may be performed by methods, apparatus (e.g., a memory controller), and computer program products.
