Systems and methods for immediate physical erasure of data in a memory system in response to a user command are disclosed. In one implementation, a memory system includes a non-volatile memory and a controller in communication with the non-volatile memory. The controller comprises a processor that is configured to receive from a host in communication with the memory system, a destruct command that indicates a user request to make the memory system inoperable. The processor is further configured to perform one or more operations to render the memory system inoperable in response to the destruct command received from the host.

Systems and methods for immediate physical erasure of data stored in a memory system in response to a user command

A system and method are disclosed for an electronic integrated circuit to communicate with different hosts via different interfaces using the same host protocol. The system may use a host interface circuit to select a first set of electrical contacts or a second set of electrical contacts in order for a first host or a second host, respectively, to communicate with the electronic integrated circuit using a host protocol. The method may include switching from communicating with the first host using the first set of electrical contacts to communicating with the second host using the second set of electrical contacts in order for the second host to test the electronic integrated circuit.
