STORAGE DEVICE AND STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18508479 titled 'STORAGE DEVICE AND STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a storage device with a reference clock pin that receives a clock signal from a host, circuitry that determines the clock frequency, and a controller that enables high-speed communication between the host and the storage device based on the clock frequency.
- Reference clock pin receives clock signal from host
- Circuitry determines clock frequency from signal
- Controller enables high-speed mode link startup based on clock frequency
Potential Applications
- High-speed data transfer in storage devices
- Improved performance in storage systems
Problems Solved
- Slow data transfer rates
- Inefficient communication between host and storage device
Benefits
- Faster data transfer speeds
- Enhanced overall system performance
Original Abstract Submitted
A storage device and a storage system including the same are provided. The storage device includes a reference clock pin configured to receive a reference clock signal from a host, a reference clock frequency determination circuitry configured to determine a reference clock frequency from the reference clock signal received through the reference clock pin, and a device controller circuitry configured to perform a high speed mode link startup between the host and the storage device according to the reference clock frequency.
