An electronic device includes a processor coupled to a memory device, through a data bus to receive and transmit bits on the data bus. The processor is configured to transmit a message including a first bit indicative of controlling the data bus, address bits indicative of an address identifying the memory device, and a second bit indicative of whether the processor intends to read data from or write data to the memory device; and transmit a third bit indicative of a mode of operation of the memory device.

Electronic device and data exchange method including protocol indicative of modes of operation

A method for command processing in a memory controller includes receiving a serial input signal including a series of binary digits, capturing the binary digits at ones of odd locations or even locations of the serial input signal to form a first sub-series, capturing the binary digits at other ones of the odd locations or the even locations of the serial input signal to form a second sub-series, comparing the first and second sub-series, and performing a command represented by the first sub-series, if the first and second sub-series are complementary to each other.

Method and device for processing serial binary input by comparing binary digits at even and odd locations of the input

A method and apparatus for protecting non-volatile memory is described. A write command is processed only when an operating voltage is between specified operating limits and when a data pattern stored in the non-volatile memory is repeatedly read successfully.
