MEMORY DEVICE SUPPORTING A HIGH-EFFICIENT INPUT/OUTPUT INTERFACE AND A MEMORY SYSTEM INCLUDING THE MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18242034 titled 'MEMORY DEVICE SUPPORTING A HIGH-EFFICIENT INPUT/OUTPUT INTERFACE AND A MEMORY SYSTEM INCLUDING THE MEMORY DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a memory system that uses different voltage levels to transmit commands, addresses, and data during different time intervals. The memory device samples the data input/output signal in a pulse amplitude modulation (PAM)-N mode during the first time interval and in a non return to zero (NRZ) mode during the second time interval.

  • The memory system uses different voltage levels to transmit commands, addresses, and data.
  • During the first time interval, the data input/output signal is transmitted in a pulse amplitude modulation (PAM)-N mode.
  • During the second time interval, the data input/output signal is transmitted in a non return to zero (NRZ) mode.
  • The memory controller is responsible for transmitting the command, address, or data to the first channel based on the voltage levels of the data input/output signal.
  • The memory device samples the data input/output signal received via the first channel during the first and second time intervals.

Potential Applications

  • This memory system can be used in various electronic devices that require efficient data transmission and storage, such as computers, smartphones, and servers.
  • It can be particularly useful in high-speed data processing applications where quick and reliable memory access is crucial.

Problems Solved

  • The memory system solves the problem of efficient data transmission by using different voltage levels and time intervals.
  • It addresses the need for reliable memory access by sampling the data input/output signal in different modes.

Benefits

  • The use of different voltage levels and time intervals allows for more efficient data transmission and storage.
  • The memory system provides reliable memory access by sampling the data input/output signal in different modes.
  • It can potentially improve the overall performance and speed of electronic devices that rely on memory systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

A memory system including: a memory controller to transmit a command, an address, or data to a first channel based on a data input/output signal having one of N (N is a natural number of three or more) different voltage levels during a first time interval, the memory controller transmitting the command, the address, or the data not transmitted during the first time interval to the first channel based on the data input/output signal having one of two different voltage levels during a second time interval; and a memory device to sample the data input/output signal received via the first channel during the first time interval in a pulse amplitude modulation (PAM)-N mode, the memory device sampling the data input/output signal received via the first channel during the second time interval in a non return to zero (NRZ) mode.
