ERROR HANDLING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17965909 titled 'ERROR HANDLING

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of the patent application describes a method for handling errors in a memory device based on media management data. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • Error handling flags are set based on media management data of a memory device.
  • The system determines if any of the error handling flags are set.
  • If at least one flag is set, a subset of operations from an error handling flow associated with the set flags is performed.

Potential Applications:

  • Memory devices such as solid-state drives (SSDs) or flash drives.
  • Data storage systems.
  • Embedded systems with memory management.

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient error handling in memory devices.
  • Improved reliability and data integrity.
  • Streamlined error handling process.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced error detection and correction capabilities.
  • Reduced risk of data loss or corruption.
  • Improved performance and reliability of memory devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

Respective error handling (EH) flags can be set based at least in part on media management data of a memory device. Whether any of the EH flags are set can be determined. In response to determining that at least one of the EH flags is set, a subset of a plurality of operations of an EH flow associated with the set EH flags can be performed.
