ADDRESS VERIFICATION AT A MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240126447 titled 'ADDRESS VERIFICATION AT A MEMORY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
Methods, systems, and devices for address verification at a memory device are described in the patent application. The memory device reads data from a read address along with error detection bits based on a write address. It then generates an address match signal based on the error detection bits and provides the data and the address match signal to a host device.
- Explanation of the patent/innovation:
- Memory device verifies address by reading data and error detection bits. - Generates an address match signal based on the read and write addresses. - Provides data and address match signal to a host device.
Potential applications of this technology: - Data storage systems - Computer memory modules - Embedded systems
Problems solved by this technology: - Ensures data integrity by verifying read and write addresses match. - Reduces errors in data retrieval processes.
Benefits of this technology: - Improved data reliability - Enhanced system performance - Simplified address verification process
Potential commercial applications of this technology: - Memory device manufacturers - Data center operators - Electronics manufacturers
Possible prior art: - Error detection and correction techniques in memory devices - Address verification methods in computer systems
Questions: 1. How does this technology impact data security in memory devices? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this address verification method in different types of memory devices?
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for address verification at a memory device are described. the memory device may receive a read command for a read address. based on the read command, the memory device may read data from the read address and a first set of error detection bits that is based on a write address associated with the data. the memory device may generate, based on the first set of error detection bits and a second set of error detection bits that is based on the read address, an address match signal that indicates whether the read address matches the write address. and the memory device may provide the data and an indication of the address match signal to a host device.
