Abstract:
The present disclosure includes methods, devices, and systems for state change in systems having devices coupled in a chained configuration. A number of embodiments include a host and a number of devices coupled to the host in a chained configuration. The chained configuration includes at least one device that is not directly coupled to the host. The at least one device that is not directly coupled to the host is configured to change from a first communication state to a second communication state responsive to receipt of a command from the host.
Abstract:
The present disclosure includes methods, devices, and systems for determining and using soft data in memory devices and systems. One or more embodiments include an array of memory cells and control circuitry coupled to the array. The control circuitry is configured to perform a number of sense operations on the memory cells using a number of sensing voltages to determine soft data associated with a target state of the memory cells, and adjust a sensing voltage used to determine the target state based, at least partially, on the determined soft data.

Abstract:
The present disclosure includes methods for controlling host memory access with a memory device, systems, host controllers and memory devices. One embodiment for controlling host memory access with a memory device includes receiving at least one command from a host and controlling execution of the at least one command with the memory device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure includes methods, devices, and systems for controlling a memory device. One method for controlling a memory device embodiment includes storing device class dependent information and a command in one or more of host system memory and host controller memory, setting a pointer to the command in a register in a host controller, directing access to the one or more of host system memory and host controller memory with the memory device via the host controller; and executing the command with the memory device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure includes methods, devices, and systems for booting in systems having devices coupled in a chained configuration. One or more embodiments include a host and a number of devices coupled to the host in a chained configuration, wherein at least one of the number of devices is a bootable device and the at least one bootable device is not directly coupled to the host.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, each block of a plurality of blocks includes a respective plurality of strings of memory cells, where each of the plurality of strings of a block is coupled to a respective select transistor, and wherein each of the select transistors coupled to the plurality of strings of the block is coupled to a common first select line. The plurality of blocks includes N block sizes, where N may be an integer greater than or equal to three. N−1 blocks of one block size of the N block sizes collectively include a first number of second select lines. A group of blocks consisting of a respective block of each remaining block size of the N block sizes collectively include a second number of second select lines that is equal to the first number of select lines or that is less than the first number of second select lines.
Abstract:
Memory, memory devices, and a method for a backup sequence are disclosed. In one such memory device, sense circuitry and page buffers are coupled between a three transistor memory cell device and a non-volatile memory device. Enable/disable gates enable selective access to the sense circuitry and page buffers by either the three transistor memory cell device or the non-volatile memory device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure includes methods, devices, and systems for adjusting sensing voltages in devices. One or more embodiments include memory cells, and a controller configured to perform a sense operation on the memory cells using a sensing voltage to determine a quantity of the memory cells having a threshold voltage (Vt) greater than the sensing voltage and adjust a sensing voltage used to determine a state of the memory cells based, at least partially, on the determined quantity of memory cells.
Abstract:
The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods related to a memory system including a controller and an array of memory cells. An example apparatus can include a controller configured to receive operational characteristics of an array of memory cells based on prior operations performed by the array of memory cells, determine a set of trim settings for the array of memory cells based on the operational characteristics of the array of memory cells, wherein the set of trim settings are associated with desired operational characteristics for the array of memory cells, and send the set of trim settings to the array of memory cells.
