MANAGING ERROR CONTROL INFORMATION USING A REGISTER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240250699 titled 'MANAGING ERROR CONTROL INFORMATION USING A REGISTER
The abstract describes methods, systems, and devices for managing error control information using a register in a memory device. The memory device stores an indication of whether an error has been detected in data requested from a host device, based on communication protocol and error control configuration settings. The host device can request this information from the memory device, which will output the indication of error detection in response.
- Memory device stores indication of error detection in data requested from host device
- Determination to store indication based on communication protocol and error control configuration settings
- Host device can request error control information from memory device
- Memory device outputs indication of error detection in response to request
- System enables efficient management of error control information in memory devices
Potential Applications: - Data storage systems - Computer memory management - Error detection and correction systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient management of error control information - Improved communication between memory devices and host devices
Benefits: - Enhanced data reliability - Streamlined error control processes - Increased system performance
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Error Control Management System for Memory Devices" This technology can be applied in various industries such as: - Data centers - Cloud computing - Networking equipment manufacturers
Questions about Error Control Management System: 1. How does the system determine whether to store the indication of error detection? The system determines based on the enabled communication protocol and error control configuration settings. 2. What are the potential benefits of using this error control management system? The benefits include enhanced data reliability, streamlined error control processes, and increased system performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for managing error control information using a register are described. a memory device may store, at a register, an indication of whether the memory device has detected an error included in or otherwise associated with data requested from a host device. the memory device may determine to store the indication based on whether a communication protocol is enabled or disabled, and whether an error control configuration is enabled or disabled. the host device may request information from the register of the memory device, and the memory device may output the indication of whether the error was detected in response to the request.
