Abstract: A removable power loss protection module interfaces with a carrier board via a bus connection. The removable power loss protection module includes energy storage components that are charged with a voltage received from a host computing system via the carrier board and/or via the host computing system's power supply. If the carrier board experiences a power loss, the removable power loss protection module discharges the energy stored in the energy storage components to the carrier board to allow the carrier board to backup any data that would have been lost. In an implementation, the removable power loss protection module may support multiple carrier boards.

Abstract: A carrier board for use with a host computing system includes bus connectors for one or more removable memory modules. The carrier board includes energy storage components and control circuitry to charge the energy storage components using a voltage source provided by the host computing system. If the host computing system experiences a power failure, the control circuitry initiates discharge the energy storage components to power the carrier board. As such, the memory controller on the carrier board may initiate steps to secure any data that would have been lost due to the power failure, such as data that is part of write operations in progress at the time of the power failure or data to be migrated as part of garbage collection operations.
