METHOD AND A MEMORY CONTROLLER FOR MANAGING MEMORY OPERATIONS IN A STORAGE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240329884 titled 'METHOD AND A MEMORY CONTROLLER FOR MANAGING MEMORY OPERATIONS IN A STORAGE DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and memory controller for managing memory operations in a storage device. The memory controller adjusts the operating mode of the storage device based on the time interval between user requests.
- The memory controller receives multiple requests from a user.
- It dynamically switches the operating mode of the storage device based on the time interval between requests and a predefined threshold.
- The switching involves notifying first cores to switch second cores from active state to power down state during the transition to scaled-down mode.
- It also involves restarting second cores during the switch to striping FTL mode.
- This method optimizes power consumption and manages memory operations effectively.
