MEMORY CONTROLLER AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18081605 titled 'MEMORY CONTROLLER AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
- The present technology is related to an electronic device and specifically a memory controller. - The memory controller includes a latency monitor and an operation controller. - The latency monitor counts the number of over-latencies exceeding a reference value for requests from a host during each period. - It calculates the difference values between the over-latency count values of multiple periods and generates latency information. - The latency information includes the over-latency count values and the gaps between them. - The operation controller uses the latency information to determine if the gaps between certain periods exceed a threshold value. - Based on this determination, the operation controller delays the response to the requests accordingly.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present technology relates to an electronic device. According to the present technology, a memory controller may include a latency monitor and an operation controller. The latency monitor may count an over-latency count value representing a number of over-latencies exceeding a reference value among latencies for requests from a host during each of a plurality of periods, calculate gaps which are difference values between the over-latency count values of the plurality of periods, and generate latency information including the over-latency count values and the gaps. The operation controller may determine, based on the latency info oration, whether each gap between at least two target periods among the plurality of periods exceeds a threshold value, and delay a response to the requests according to a determination result.
