L2p translation techniques in limited ram systems to increase random write performance using multiple l2p caches

Abstract

Devices and techniques are disclosed herein for more efficiently performing random write operation for a memory device. In an example, a method of operating a flash memory device can include receiving a write request at a flash memory device from a host, the write request including a first logical block address and write data, saving the write data to a location of the flash memory device having a first physical address, operating the flash memory device in a first mode when an amount of write data associated with the write request is above a threshold, operating the flash memory device in a second mode when an amount of write data is below the threshold, and comparing the amount of write data to the threshold.
