Abstract: Instead of using a bandwidth limiter for bandwidth allocation in an SSD, a dummy virtual function (VF) is used to transfer internal operations. A centralized logic such as the bandwidth limiter is incorporated in the device controller. This logic is responsible for controlling the bandwidth between the hosts. The logic is not just responsible for data transfers triggered by the hosts, but also for data transfers triggered by the device in internal operations such as garbage collection. In order to control the traffic trigged by internal operations, a dummy VF is created along with dummy submission queues. The internal operations are queued in the dummy submission queues, while the bandwidth limiter is responsible for the performance rate. Using this approach, bandwidth allocation is balanced between the hosts and SSD.

Abstract: To reduce power consumption and circuitry requirements, the following presents an “unmatched” data output architecture, in which the clock path does not mimic the data path. To provide proper data transfers in the data output path, the clock signal is tuned at points of the clock path, such as for data transfers from internal data buses to FIFOs and from the FIFO though the multiplexers to the input/output pads. An amount of timing offset is introduced in the generation of internal transfer clocks, which can be determined as part of a valid data window training process that can be performed by the controller, such as part of the power up process.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for a shallow erase for erase pool management. The memory system performs a shallow erase of a block of memory cells prior to placing the block in a shallow erase pool. The block may remain in the shallow erase pool for a substantial time with little to no risk of damage to the memory cells. The memory system completes the erase of the block at a later time. The memory system may select the block from the shallow erase pool when the system determines there is a need for another fully erased block. The erase voltage used for the shallow erase may be substantially lower in magnitude than the erase voltage used to complete the erase.

Abstract: When performing a read process, a non-volatile memory first performs a pre-read sensing of the condition of memory cells connected to neighbor word lines. While applying a first word line voltage associated with a first programmed data state to the selected word line, the memory system performs two sensing operations for the first programmed data state on selected memory cells that have neighbor memory cells on the neighbor word lines in a first condition and perform two sensing operations for the first programmed data state on selected memory cells that have neighbor memory cells on the neighbor word lines in a second condition. Based on that sensing, the data being stored in the set of selected memory cells is determined. In some embodiments, at least one of the two sensing operations for each condition includes sensing soft bit information that improves the data decoding process.

Each region of a same block includes a plurality of non-volatile memory cells controlled by a separate drain side (or different type of) select line for the region such that different regions of a same block are controlled by different drain side (or different type of) select lines. The non-volatile storage apparatus is configured to concurrently program memory cells in multiple regions.

Abstract: A system that analyzes alarms from patient monitoring devices and calculates modified alarm thresholds that reduce the number of alarms to a desired level. This capability addresses the common problem of alarm overload and fatigue, where alarms occur so frequently that clinicians cannot respond effectively. The system supports highly efficient calculation of changes in alarm frequency, by storing summaries of alarm data that record maximum and minimum values during an alarm. New thresholds may be selected manually or automatically and may be transmitted directly to the patient monitoring devices as updates to their alarm thresholds. The system may also classify alarms as high (above an upper threshold) or low (below a lower threshold) when devices do not provide this data. The system may also estimate the number of additional alarms that would occur if an upper threshold were reduced, or a lower threshold were increased.
