REFLOW PROTECTION FOR A MODULE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240221792 titled 'REFLOW PROTECTION FOR A MODULE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
The abstract describes a memory device that can configure a reflow critical data region in a non-volatile memory with reflow protection measures. The device can write data to this region, determine when a reflow process is completed, and then reconfigure the region to remove the protection measures.
- Memory device configures reflow critical data region with protection measures
- Writes data to the region
- Determines completion of reflow process
- Reconfigures region to remove protection measures
Potential Applications: - Data storage devices - Embedded systems - Industrial control systems
Problems Solved: - Ensuring data integrity during reflow processes - Protecting critical data from corruption
Benefits: - Enhanced data security - Reliable data storage - Improved system performance
Commercial Applications: Title: "Reflow Protection Memory Devices for Enhanced Data Security" This technology can be used in various industries such as data storage, embedded systems, and industrial control systems to ensure data integrity and protection during reflow processes. The market implications include increased demand for secure data storage solutions and improved system reliability.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the memory device determine when the reflow process is completed? The memory device likely uses specific algorithms or signals to detect the completion of the reflow process, ensuring accurate timing for reconfiguring the data region.
2. What are the potential risks associated with reflow processes on data integrity? Reflow processes can potentially lead to data corruption or loss if not properly managed, highlighting the importance of implementing protection measures like those described in this technology.
Original Abstract Submitted
in some implementations, a memory device may configure a reflow critical data region in a non-volatile memory that is associated with at least one reflow protection measure for data stored in the reflow critical data region. the memory device may write a set of data to the reflow critical data region. the memory device may determine that a reflow process associated with the memory device has been completed. the memory device may reconfigure the reflow critical data region to remove the at least one reflow protection measure based on determining that the reflow process has been completed.
