Abstract:
A semiconductor flash EPROM/EEPROM device which includes a command port for receiving instruction on a data line and providing control signals to a memory for providing program and erase functions, a method to program and erase the memory. A program sequence is comprised of setting up a program command during a first write cycle, preforming a second write cycle to load address to address register and data to to a data register, programming during a program cycle and writing a program verify command during a third write cycle to verify the programmed data during a read cycle. An erase sequence is comprised of writing a setup erase command during a first write cycle, an erase command during a second write cycle providing the erasure during an erase cycle, writing the erase verify command during a third write cycle which also addresses the address of the memory and providing erase verification during a read cycle. Both the erase and program cycles provide for measured incremental erasing and programming.
Abstract:
In some embodiments, an electronic system may include a cache located between a mass storage and a system memory, and code stored on the electronic system to prevent storage of stream data in the cache and to send the stream data directly between the system memory and the mass storage based on a comparison of first metadata of a first request for first information and pre-boot stream information stored in a previous boot context. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
Abstract:
A method of utilizing error detecting and correcting circuitry (56) to detect and correct errors which can occur in data stored in multi-bit cell format in a flash EEPROM memory array (23) before those errors can affect the accuracy of data provided by a flash EEPROM memory array.
