摘要： A new serial bus interface module that enables constrained sensor systems to better match flash-based storage devices' (SD card) read and write performance. The serial bus interface module augments existing flash-based storage with non-volatile random-access memory to form a hybrid storage system using the most popularly used master-slave bus architecture. Together with PSC-like features, the serial bus interface module not only enables slave-to-slave transfer (therefore eliminating the double-transaction problem) but also reads caching (one source to multi-sink) and buffering while flushing. These transaction types enable multi-sector write for significantly faster speed and lower energy overhead, while the use of non-volatile memory for metadata caching means low risk of file-system corruption in the event of power failure. The serial bus interface also enables the direct data transfer from sensors to storage or communication modules without requiring the microprocessor's intervention.

摘要翻译： 一个新的串行总线接口模块，使受限的传感器系统能够更好地匹配基于闪存的存储设备（SD卡）读写性能。 串行总线接口模块使用非易失性随机存取存储器增强现有的基于闪存的存储器，以使用最常用的主从总线架构形成混合存储系统。 串行总线接口模块与PSC类似的功能一起，不仅可以实现从属到从机的传输（因此消除了双重事务的问题），而且还可以在冲洗时读取缓存（一个来源到多槽）和缓冲。 这些事务类型使多扇区写入能够显着提高速度和降低能源开销，而使用非易失性存储器进行元数据缓存意味着在发生电源故障时文件系统损坏风险较低。 串行总线接口还可以直接从传感器传输到存储或通信模块，而无需微处理器的干预。
