CROSS-COMPARISON OF DATA COPY PAIRS DURING MEMORY DEVICE INITIALIZATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18509587 titled 'CROSS-COMPARISON OF DATA COPY PAIRS DURING MEMORY DEVICE INITIALIZATION

The memory device described in the patent application includes a local memory for storing operational data and comparison logic that is connected to the local memory.

  • The comparison logic is designed to compare two pairs of copies of the operational data - one pair consisting of a copy and an inverted copy, and the other pair consisting of a second copy and an inverted second copy.
  • Upon initialization, the comparison logic checks for errors by comparing the two pairs, and reports an error if the copies do not match.

This innovation aims to improve the reliability and accuracy of stored data by detecting errors in the operational data through a unique comparison method.

Potential Applications: - Data storage systems - Computer memory devices - Error detection and correction systems

Problems Solved: - Ensuring data integrity in memory devices - Detecting errors in stored data - Improving data reliability

Benefits: - Enhanced data accuracy - Increased reliability of memory devices - Early detection of errors in operational data

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Data Integrity System for Memory Devices" This technology could be utilized in various industries such as: - Information technology - Data centers - Telecommunications

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the comparison logic detect errors in the operational data? - The comparison logic compares pairs of copies of the operational data to identify any discrepancies. 2. What are the potential benefits of using this memory device in data storage systems? - The device can enhance data accuracy and improve overall reliability.


Original Abstract Submitted

A memory device includes a local memory to store operational data and comparison logic operatively coupled with the local memory. The comparison logic, upon initialization of the memory device, compares, to detect any errors in the operational data, one copy of a first copy pair with one copy of a second copy pair of the operational data, the first copy pair including a first copy and an inverted first copy and the second copy pair including a second copy and an inverted second copy of the operational data. The comparison logic further reports an error in response to detecting the first copy pair does not match the second copy pair.
