Latest Patents
Tanmai Kari holds a patent titled "Activating automatic sleep and wakeup sequences in a NAND die based on another NAND die status." This invention allows a die on a memory device to enter a wakeup or sleep state based on the statuses of other dies on the same device. The die features an input/output (IO) line that indicates its operational state. A processor on the die receives a wakeup interrupt die number and a sleep interrupt die number set by a connected storage device. The processor also receives a broadcast command that includes IO statuses for the IO lines associated with other dies. It determines when an IO line for a second die transitions from a 1 state to a 0 state to execute a wakeup sequence. Additionally, it identifies when an IO line for a third die transitions from a 0 state to a 1 state to execute a sleep sequence. This innovation streamlines the management of power states in memory devices.
