OPERATING METHOD OF STORAGE DEVICE, OPERATING METHOD OF HOST, AND STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE STORAGE DEVICE AND THE HOST - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17948858 titled 'OPERATING METHOD OF STORAGE DEVICE, OPERATING METHOD OF HOST, AND STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE STORAGE DEVICE AND THE HOST

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an operating method for a storage device with a non-volatile memory. The method involves controlling the voltage of the storage device, receiving information requests from a host, transmitting corresponding responses, and providing a different voltage to the non-volatile memory.

  • The method involves receiving a first source voltage and adjusting it to match the target voltage of the storage device.
  • Information requests related to the operation voltage of the storage device are received from a host.
  • The storage device transmits responses to the host based on the information requests.
  • A second source voltage, different from the first source voltage, is received and provided to the non-volatile memory.

Potential Applications

  • This operating method can be applied in various storage devices such as solid-state drives (SSDs), memory cards, or USB flash drives.
  • It can be used in data centers, personal computers, mobile devices, and other electronic devices that utilize storage devices.

Problems Solved

  • The method solves the problem of controlling the voltage of a storage device to match the target voltage, ensuring proper operation and performance.
  • It addresses the issue of receiving and responding to information requests from a host, allowing efficient communication between the storage device and the host.
  • The method also solves the problem of providing a different voltage to the non-volatile memory, ensuring its proper functioning.

Benefits

  • By controlling the voltage to match the target voltage, the method ensures the stability and reliability of the storage device.
  • Efficient communication with the host through information requests and responses improves the overall performance and functionality of the storage device.
  • Providing a different voltage to the non-volatile memory allows for optimized operation and enhanced memory performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

An operating method of a storage device including a non-volatile memory is provided. The operating method includes: receiving a first source voltage through a first voltage signal pin; based on the first source voltage different from a target voltage of the storage device, controlling the first source voltage to the target voltage; receiving a command, which indicates an information request associated with an operation voltage of the storage device, from a host; transmitting a response, which corresponds to the information request, to the host by using the storage device; receiving a second source voltage which has a voltage level different from the first source voltage, through the first voltage signal pin; and providing the second source voltage to the non-volatile memory.
