COMMAND BUS IN MEMORY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17700187 Titled 'COMMAND BUS IN MEMORY'
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a system where a memory module can perform different operations in response to a common command. The memory module consists of multiple memory media types that can carry out these operations simultaneously. The system includes memory devices connected to a host through ports, with additional memory devices connected to the first set of memory devices through more ports. Each of these additional memory devices has a controller and can receive commands from the host to perform various operations concurrently.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to a command bus in memory. A memory module may be equipped with multiple memory media types that are responsive to perform various operations in response to a common command. The operations may be carried out during the same clock cycle in response to the command. An example apparatus can include a first number of memory devices coupled to a host via a first number of ports and a second number of memory devices each coupled to the first number of memory devices via a second number of ports, wherein the second number of memory devices each include a controller, and wherein the first number of memory devices and the second number of memory devices can receive a command from the host to perform the various (e.g., the same or different) operations, sometime concurrently.
