Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates to improved command processing by separating all state machines into multiple groups. Rather than having one general die that can process any command, this disclosure suggests distributed processing commands by having two types of dies. A slave die will contain the flash array and implementation of state machine that is related to fast operations, and will not include state machines of slow operations. A master die will contain implementation of fast state machine (to support fast commands to the flash array that connected to the master die) and implementation of slow command state machine. The master die will have one instance of the slow state machine implementation, but that slow state machine will be able to be loaded with variables that represent the slow states of all the other dies. The commands processing is based the most suitable state machine for the specific command.
