APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT IN A MEMORY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17704154 Titled 'APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR THERMAL MANAGEMENT IN A MEMORY'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a memory system that consists of memory cells and a controller. The controller is responsible for managing access to the memory cells. It can perform various operations on the memory cells and indicate when it is not available to perform the next operation. It can also add a delay to the time it takes to access the memory cells and indicate when it is available to perform the next operation after the delay is completed. The duration of the delay is determined based on the temperature of the system.
Original Abstract Submitted
Memories might include an array of memory cells and a controller for access of the array of memory cells. The controller might be configured to cause the memory to initiate an array operation on the array of memory cells, indicate an unavailability to initiate a next array operation, append a delay interval to an array access time of the array operation, and indicate an availability to initiate a next array operation in response to a completion of the delay interval. The delay interval might have a duration determined in response to an indication of temperature.
