Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for voltage regulation distribution for stacked memory are described. A stacked memory device may support various techniques for coupling between voltage regulation circuitry of multiple memory dies, or for coupling of voltage regulation circuitry of some memory dies with circuitry associated with operating memory arrays of other memory dies. In some examples, such techniques may include cross-coupling of voltage regulation circuitry based on access activity or a degree of access activity for array circuitry. In some examples, such techniques may include isolating voltage regulation circuitry based on access activity or a degree of access activity for array circuitry. Dynamic coupling or isolation between voltage regulation circuitry may be supported by various signaling related to a stacked memory device, such as signaling between the stacked memory dies, signaling between a memory die and a central controller, or signaling between the stacked memory device and a host device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for power distribution for stacked memory are described. A memory die may be configured with one or more conductive paths for providing power to another memory die, where each conductive path may pass through the memory die but may be electrically isolated from circuitry for operating the memory die. Each conductive path may provide an electronic coupling between at least one of a first set of contacts of the memory die (e.g., couplable with a power source) and at least one of a second set of contacts of the memory die (e.g., couplable with another memory die). To support operations of the memory die, a contact of the first set may be coupled with circuitry for operating a memory array of the memory die, and to support operations of another memory die, another contact of the first set may be electrically isolated from the circuitry.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for dynamic power distribution for stacked memory are described. A stacked memory device may include switching components that support dynamic coupling between a shared power source of the memory device and circuitry associated with operating memory arrays of respective memory dies. In some examples, such techniques include coupling a power source with array circuitry based on an access activity or a degree of access activity for the array circuitry. In some examples, such techniques include isolating a power source from array circuitry based on a lack of access activity or a degree of access activity for the array circuitry. The dynamic coupling or isolation may be supported by various signaling of the memory device, such as signaling between memory dies, signaling between a memory die and a central controller, or signaling between the memory device and a host device.
