Abstract
Various embodiments described herein provide for a method for reduced power consumption by a memory system. A memory system of some embodiments monitors power state change requests received by the memory system from a host system, and determines a pattern of power state change requests received from the host system. Based on the determined pattern, the memory system can decide to activate or deactivate a reduced power consumption mode on the memory system. A reduced power consumption mode can comprise a first set of operation parameters that cause a memory system to operate with lower power consumption than a second set of operation parameters associated with a current operation mode, where the current operation mode is associated with a current power state set or last requested by the host system.
