Abstract

A memory system may include memory circuitry and power circuitry, which may include a power storage device. The memory system may also include a controller to determine a power demand of the memory circuitry. In response to determining that the power demand is less than an incoming supply power, the controller may generate a first mode signal to induce a charging state of the power storage device. Additionally, in response to determining that the power demand is greater than the incoming supply power, the controller may generate a second mode signal to cause the power storage device to provide a secondary power to the memory circuitry.
