DISTRIBUTED POWER UP FOR A MEMORY SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17737539 titled 'DISTRIBUTED POWER UP FOR A MEMORY SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for distributed power up in a memory system.
- The memory system receives a command from a host system to initialize a set of memory devices.
- The memory system selects a first memory device from the set and reads a first operational parameter from a second memory device in a separate controller.
- The memory system then reads a set of second operational parameters from the first memory device, where each parameter corresponds to a respective memory device in the set.
- The innovation aims to improve the power-up process of memory systems by distributing the initialization process across multiple devices.
- This approach allows for efficient and optimized power-up of memory devices, enhancing overall system performance.
- By reading operational parameters from separate devices, the memory system can ensure proper initialization and configuration of each memory device.
- The invention can be applied to various memory systems, such as solid-state drives (SSDs) or computer memory modules.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for distributed power up for a memory system are described. The method may include a memory system receiving, from a host system, a command to initialize a set of memory devices included in a memory system. Upon receiving the command, the memory system may select a first memory device from the set of memory devices and read, from a second memory device in a controller separate from the set of memory devices, a first operational parameter corresponding to the first memory device. The memory system may then read, from the first memory device, a set of second operational parameters, each second operational parameter of the set of second operational parameters corresponding to a respective memory device of the set of memory devices.
