A solid state drive (SSD) includes dynamic random access memory (DRAM), flash memory, and a solid state drive (SSD) controller. The solid state drive (SSD) also includes a peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) bus to connect the SSD to a computing device such that a central processing unit (CPU) of the computing device exclusively reads data from, and writes data to, the DRAM. The SSD controller writes data to the flash memory from the DRAM independently of received commands from the computing device.

Solid state drive architectures

A solid state drive includes DRAM logical flash and flash memory, in which system processor reads and writes only to the DRAM logical flash which minimizes writes to the flash memory. A method for operation of a solid state flash device includes writing, by a CPU, to a solid state drive by sending commands and data to DRAM logical flash using flash commands and formatting.

A user control channel for a wireless digital subscriber line systems and the like, or other communications systems which can benefit from a control channel which provides a low data rate connection between stations on an ongoing basis, makes efficient use of transmission capacity in the communications systems. In one embodiment, the user control channel has a structure employing slotted frames, and a user can be assigned multiple slots, a single slot or less than a single slot (sharing slots with other users) to meet the data transmission needs of the user. Also, one or more slots can be designated as random access slots which users can access via an Aloha-like or other random access protocol as needed.

Control channel for a wireless digital subscriber line system

A subscriber station operable to communicate with a base station and provide telephony and data services to users. The subscriber station connects to telephony and data devices and preferably communicates with the base station using a wireless modem.
