MEMORY-INTERFACE CONVERTER CHIP - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17822649 titled 'MEMORY-INTERFACE CONVERTER CHIP
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a storage device that includes a memory interface chip. The device consists of a controller integrated circuit, a first memory die, and a first converter integrated circuit. The first converter integrated circuit has a first external interface (serial interface) connected to the controller integrated circuit, and a second external interface (memory interface) connecting it to the first memory die.
- The storage device includes a memory interface chip.
- It consists of a controller integrated circuit, a first memory die, and a first converter integrated circuit.
- The first converter integrated circuit has a first external interface (serial interface) connected to the controller integrated circuit.
