  • Power loss test engine device and method
    Patent number: 11309055
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed, including test systems for memory devices. Example test systems and methods include power loss logic to determine when one or more test conditions have been met in a memory operation between a host device and a memory device under test. Example test systems and methods include a function to then instruct a power management device to trigger a power loss event.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 20, 2018
    Date of Patent: April 19, 2022
    Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.
    Inventors: Claudio Giaccio, Ferdinando Pascale, Raffaele Mastrangelo, Erminio Di Martino, Ferdinando D'Alessandro, Cristiano Castellano, Andrea Castaldo
  • Data strobe calibration
    Patent number: 11282553
    Abstract: Devices and techniques are disclosed herein for determining, using a host device, a timing relationship between a data strobe signal, such as from an embedded MultiMediaCard (eMMC) device, and an internal clock signal. The host device can control a delay circuit using the determined timing relationship, such as to align received read data for sampling, or to determine or adjust a delay value of the delay circuit.
