TECHNIQUES FOR DETECTING A STATE OF A BUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240264767 titled 'TECHNIQUES FOR DETECTING A STATE OF A BUS
The patent application describes methods, systems, and devices for detecting the state of a bus in a memory device. The memory device receives an access command via the bus, transmits data requested by the command, and sends a control signal indicating the bus is active during a read operation.
- Memory device receives access command via bus
- Transmits requested data over data lines
- Sends control signal indicating bus is active during read operation
- Control signal has different voltages for idle and active states
- Control line trends towards idle state voltage when bus is idle
Potential Applications: - Memory devices in computer systems - Data processing systems - Communication systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient detection of bus state - Improved data transmission reliability - Enhanced system performance
Benefits: - Faster data processing - Reduced errors in data transmission - Optimal system operation
Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Bus State Detection Technology for Memory Devices" This technology can be utilized in various industries such as: - Computer hardware manufacturing - Telecommunications - Data centers
Questions about Bus State Detection Technology: 1. How does this technology improve data transmission efficiency? - This technology enhances data transmission efficiency by accurately detecting the state of the bus and optimizing data flow accordingly. 2. What are the key advantages of using this technology in memory devices? - The main advantages include faster data processing, reduced errors, and improved system performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and devices for techniques for detecting a state of a bus are described. a memory device may receive an access command transmitted to the memory device via a bus. the memory device may transmit data requested by the access command over data lines and a control signal that indicates the bus is in an active state over a control line. the control signal may be transmitted during a first unit interval of a read operation. the control signal may be configured to have a first voltage when the bus is in an idle state and a second voltage when the bus is in the active state. the control line may be configured to have or trend toward the first voltage when the bus is in the idle state.
