Management of Programming Mode Transitions to Accommodate a Constant Size of Data Transfer between a Host System and a Memory Sub-System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18482644 titled 'Management of Programming Mode Transitions to Accommodate a Constant Size of Data Transfer between a Host System and a Memory Sub-System
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a memory sub-system that is designed to manage programming mode transitions between a host system and the memory sub-system. The memory sub-system keeps track of single-page transitions of atomic programming modes and determines whether to allow any two-page transitions based on the count of single-page transitions. If an odd number of single-page transitions have been counted, no two-page transition is allowed; otherwise, one or more two-page transitions are allowed. The next transition of atomic programming modes is selected based on this determination.
- The memory sub-system manages programming mode transitions between a host system and the memory sub-system.
- It counts single-page transitions of atomic programming modes performed within the memory sub-system.
- It determines whether to allow any two-page transitions based on the count of single-page transitions.
- If an odd number of single-page transitions have been counted, no two-page transition is allowed.
- Otherwise, one or more two-page transitions are allowable.
- The next transition of atomic programming modes is selected based on this determination.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Memory management in computer systems
- Data transfer between host systems and memory sub-systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient management of programming mode transitions
- Ensuring a constant size of data transfer between host systems and memory sub-systems
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved performance and efficiency in memory management
- Enhanced data transfer capabilities between host systems and memory sub-systems
Original Abstract Submitted
A memory sub-system configured to manage programming mode transitions to accommodate a constant size of data transfer between a host system and a memory sub-system. The memory sub-system counts single-page transitions of atomic programming modes performed within a memory sub-system and determines whether or not to allow any two-page transition of atomic programming modes based on whether an odd or even number of the single-page transitions have been counted. When an odd number of the transitions have been counted, no two-page transition is allowed; otherwise, one or more two-page transitions are allowable. A next transition of atomic programming modes is selected based on the determining of whether or not to allow any two-page transitions.
