Abstract
A data storage apparatus includes storage and a controller configured to control the storage in response to a request from a host. The controller includes an internal voltage trimming circuit which includes: an integration circuit configured to generate an integration signal by integrating a difference between a test voltage output from a device under test (DUT) and a reference voltage; a comparison circuit configured to generate a comparison signal by comparing the integration signal and the reference voltage; a transition detection circuit configured to output a detection signal according to level transition of the comparison signal; a counter configured to receive an initial trimming code and generate a preliminary trimming code by increasing or reducing the initial trimming code in response to the detection signal; and an average circuit configured to generate a final trimming code by averaging the preliminary trimming code for a determined time interval and provide the final trimming code to the storage.
