Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods related to a controller for managing multiple types of memory are described. A controller includes a front end portion, a central controller portion, a back end portion, and a management unit can manage a first type of memory device that operates according to a first set of timing characteristics and a second type of memory device that operates according to a second set of timing characteristics. The central controller portion is configured to cause performance of a memory operation and comprises a cache memory to buffer data associated performance of the memory operation, a security component configured to encrypt the data before storing the data in the first type of memory device or the second type of memory device, and error correction code (ECC) circuitry to ECC encode and ECC decode the data.
