MEMORY DEVICE LOG DATA STORAGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17822250 titled 'MEMORY DEVICE LOG DATA STORAGE

Simplified Explanation

Implementations described herein relate to memory device log data storage. In some implementations, a memory device may store a first data stream associated with a first type of log data in a circular buffer. The memory device may store a second data stream associated with a second type of log data in another memory location. The memory device may detect an event included in the second data stream that is associated with an attribute level that satisfies a threshold. The memory device may write data stored in the circular buffer after a time at which the event is detected to a non-volatile memory based on the attribute level satisfying the threshold, wherein the data stored in the circular buffer is stored in the non-volatile memory in connection with data associated with the event.

• Memory device stores different types of log data in separate memory locations.
• Circular buffer used to store one type of log data.
• Event detection triggers transfer of data from circular buffer to non-volatile memory.
• Data stored in non-volatile memory in connection with event data.

Potential Applications

• Data logging in electronic devices.
• System monitoring and troubleshooting.
• Error detection and recovery in storage systems.

Problems Solved

• Efficient storage of different types of log data.
• Timely transfer of critical data to non-volatile memory.
• Simplified management of log data storage.

Benefits

• Improved data organization and retrieval.
• Enhanced system reliability and fault tolerance.
• Optimal utilization of memory resources.
