METHOD FOR DETECTING TEMPERATURE IN A FLASH MEMORY DEVICE AND THE FLASH MEMORY DEVICE THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240329850 titled 'METHOD FOR DETECTING TEMPERATURE IN A FLASH MEMORY DEVICE AND THE FLASH MEMORY DEVICE THEREOF
The present disclosure introduces a method and a flash memory device for detecting temperature within the flash memory device. The method involves receiving an input/output request from a host device, determining an on-cell count value for a specific page in an active block of the flash memory device, comparing this value with stored data, and then determining the temperature of the flash memory device based on this comparison. A notification signal is sent to the host device based on the temperature and a threshold operating temperature of the flash memory device.

Original Abstract Submitted
the present disclosure provides a method and a flash memory device for detecting temperature in the flash memory device. the method includes receiving an input/output (i/o) request from a host device and determining on-cell count value for a targeted page within an active block of the flash memory device upon receiving the i/o request. the method further includes comparing the on-cell count value of the targeted page, which is within the active block of the flash memory device, with a stored on-cell count data of the flash memory device. additionally, the method includes determining the temperature of the flash memory device corresponding to a stored on-cell count value based on the comparison. a notification signal is transmitted to the host device based on the temperature of the flash memory device and a threshold operating temperature of the flash memory device.
