METADATA REGISTERS FOR A MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240126438 titled 'METADATA REGISTERS FOR A MEMORY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method for handling data and metadata at a memory device, where data is stored in one portion of the memory array and metadata is stored in another portion.
- Data and metadata are received from the host separately.
- Data is stored in one part of the memory array, while metadata is stored in another part.
- This system allows for efficient storage and retrieval of both data and metadata.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in:
- Data storage systems
- Cloud computing
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently managing and storing metadata along with data in memory systems.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include:
- Improved data organization
- Faster data retrieval
- Enhanced system performance
Potential Commercial Applications
The potential commercial applications of this technology include:
- Memory devices for computers and servers
- Data centers
- IoT devices
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of separate memory areas for data and metadata in storage systems.
What is the impact of this technology on data storage systems?
This article does not address the impact of this technology on data storage systems.
How does this technology compare to existing memory management methods?
This article does not compare this technology to existing memory management methods.
Original Abstract Submitted
this disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for memory systems that support metadata. in a first aspect, a method of handling data and metadata at a memory device includes receiving data from the host via the at least one data connection into the first plurality of registers; receiving metadata from the host via the at least one non-data connection into the second plurality of registers; storing the data in the first portion of the memory array; and storing the metadata in the second portion of the memory array. other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
