STORAGE DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240321341 titled 'STORAGE DEVICE

The abstract of the patent application describes a storage device that includes a memory cell array, an input/output circuit, and a logic circuit. The input/output circuit receives data to be written into the memory cell array and transmits data read from the array. The logic circuit outputs signals to enable the input/output circuit and latches data values. It also processes signals received from outside the device to control the input/output circuit.

  • The storage device includes a memory cell array, input/output circuit, and logic circuit.
  • The input/output circuit handles data transmission to and from the memory cell array.
  • The logic circuit controls the input/output circuit and latches data values.
  • Signals from outside the device are processed to control the input/output circuit.
  • The logic circuit outputs signals based on the received signals to enable the input/output circuit.

Potential Applications: - Data storage devices - Computer memory systems - Embedded systems

Problems Solved: - Efficient data transfer between memory cell array and input/output circuit - Controlled access to stored data - Integration of external signals for device control

Original Abstract Submitted

a storage device includes a memory cell array, an input/output circuit, and a logic circuit. the input/output circuit including an input/output signal line through which data to be written into the memory cell array is received and data read from the memory cell array is transmitted. the logic circuit is configured to output a first signal to the input/output circuit. the first signal at an active level enables at least a part of the input/output circuit. the logic circuit includes a latch circuit configured to output a second signal at a level corresponding to a value of latched data. the logic circuit receives third, fourth, and fifth signals from an outside of the storage device via the input/output circuit. the logic circuit outputs a negative logical product of the third signal and a logical sum of at least the second, fourth, and fifth signals as the first signal.
