DYNAMIC CONTROL OF ERROR MANAGEMENT AND SIGNALING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18435652 titled 'DYNAMIC CONTROL OF ERROR MANAGEMENT AND SIGNALING
Simplified Explanation
Methods, systems, and devices for error detection, error correction, and error management by memory devices are described in the patent application. Programmable thresholds can be configured for a memory device based on the type of data or the location of stored data. For example, a host device can set a threshold quantity of errors for data at a memory device. The memory device tracks errors in the data and determines if the threshold has been met, transmitting an indication to the host device. The system can then correct the errors and prevent further errors. The memory device can also identify errors in received commands or errors introduced in data after reception.
- Memory devices can be programmed with thresholds for error detection and correction.
- Host devices can set error thresholds for specific data or locations in memory devices.
- Memory devices track errors in data and notify the host device if the threshold is exceeded.
- The system can take corrective actions to fix errors and prevent future errors.
- Memory devices can also detect errors in received commands or data.

Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, systems, and devices for error detection, error correction, and error management by memory devices are described. Programmable thresholds may be configured for a memory device based on a type of data or a location of stored data, among other aspects. For example, a host device may configure a threshold quantity of errors for data at a memory device. When retrieving the data, the memory device may track or count errors in the data and determine whether the threshold has been satisfied. The memory device may transmit (e.g., to the host device) an indication whether the threshold has been satisfied, and the system may perform functions to correct the errors and/or prevent further errors. The memory device may also identify errors in received commands or may identify errors introduced in data after the data was received (e.g., using an error detecting code associated with a command or bus).
