Abstract: An SSD device comprises a first port linking up with a first host using a first link, a second port linking up with the first host or a second host using a second link, and a port mode controller controlling the first port and the second port to change an operating mode from a dual port mode, in which the first port and the second port operate independently of each other, to a single port mode, in which only the first port operates. The port mode controller controls the second port to reset the second link in a state where the first link is linked up.

Abstract: A Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface device includes a transaction layer generating a transaction packet for transmission of a transaction, a data link layer generating a link packet including a protection code and a sequence number for the transaction packet and a link packet including a sequence number on the basis of the transaction packet, a physical layer generating a physical packet on the basis of the link packet and sequentially outputting the physical packet, a link training module performing negotiation for a link coupled through the physical layer and maintaining data information based on whether a link down occurring when the negotiation for the link is not performed is requested by a host or not, and a PCIe register storing information about the transaction layer, the data link layer, the physical layer, and the link training module.

Abstract: A secure booting apparatus according to an embodiment for solving the problems to be solved by the present invention includes: a memory configured to store encrypted data, an encrypted header, and a symmetric key; and a processor configured to generate decrypted data and a decrypted header by applying a symmetric key algorithm using the symmetric key to the encrypted data and encrypted header, to include a public key and a pre key generated from the public key in the decrypted header, to generate a comparison hashed message by applying a hash algorithm to the decrypted data, to generate a final verification value by applying a public key algorithm using the public key and the pre key to the decrypted header, to compare the comparison hashed message with the final verification value, and to determine that booting has failed if the comparison hashed message and the final verification value are different from each other.

Abstract: A Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface device may include a PCIe layer, a link training module, a PCIe register, and a PCIe controller. The PCIe layer may perform communication between a host and a Direct Memory Access (DMA) device. The link training module may perform a link training for the host. The PCIe register may store data information on the PCIe layer. The PCIe controller may switch an operating clock from a PCIe clock, generated based on a reference clock, to an internal clock, process data of the PCIe layer on the basis of the internal clock, and control the link training module to recover a link for the host, when a reset signal received from the host is asserted or the reference clock is off.
