  • Method and apparatus for incorporating DDR SDRAM into portable devices
    Publication number: 20080253214
    Abstract: A portable electronic device is provided which comprises (a) a memory device (42) equipped with an interface clock which is controlled by a Delay Locked Loop (DLL) such that the memory device is configured to operate in a first mode characterized by a minimum clock rate CRmin; and (b) a controller (38) adapted to cause the memory device to operate in a second mode by disabling the DLL, wherein the second mode is characterized by a nonzero clock rate Rc<CRmin.

  • Dynamic memory management
    Patent number: 7035155
    Abstract: In a method, system and apparatus for management of dynamic memory in battery-powered devices, information is stored in dynamic memory, such as SDRAM chips. Chip partitioning minimizes the number of chips requiring power, minimum refresh rates reduce the power needed to maintain information, and a threshold for determining when to power down a battery powered device are used to maximize battery life.
