Abstract:
In a nonvolatile memory array, power is provided to groups of memory dies by power management circuits that have different power modes. While one power management circuit is in a high-power mode supplying power for power-hungry memory operations, another power management circuit is in a low-power mode so that overall power usage is balanced.
