  • Patent number: 11971776
    Abstract: In various embodiments, techniques can be provided to address debug efficiency for failures found on an operational system. The techniques can utilize a real-time trigger to notify a memory device to dump an error log to timely capture all needed information. In response to detecting one or more error conditions associated with the memory device, a system that interfaces with the memory device can generate a trigger signal to the memory device. In response to identifying the trigger signal, the memory device can dump an error log of the memory device to a memory component in the memory device. The error log can later be retrieved from the memory component for failure analysis.

  • Publication number: 20240061615
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for command scheduling for a memory system are described. A memory system may be configured to analyze a received command during an initialization procedure for one or more components. In some examples, the memory system may initialize an interface and one or more processing elements as part of an initialization procedure upon transitioning from a first power mode to a second power mode. Accordingly, the command may be analyzed while the processing elements are being initialized such that, upon the processing elements being fully initialized, the command may be processed (e.g., executed).

  • Patent number: 11586547
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for an enhanced instruction caching scheme are described. A memory controller may include a first closely-coupled memory component that is associated with storing data and control information and a second closely-coupled memory component that is associated with storing control information. The memory controller may be configured to retrieve data from the first memory closely-coupled component and control information from a second closely-coupled memory component. Control information may be stored in the first closely-coupled memory component, and a memory controller may access the control information stored in the first closely-coupled memory component by transferring, from the first closely-coupled memory component, the control information into the second closely-coupled memory component.

  • Publication number: 20230041215
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for power management techniques are described. A memory system may receive a command to exit a first power mode and enter a second power mode. The first power mode may have a lower power consumption than the second power mode. The memory system may determine whether a duration of an idle period associated with the first power mode satisfies a threshold based on receiving the command to exit the first power mode. The memory system may receive another command associated with executing a flush operation and perform one or more power management operations based on receiving the command and determining that the duration satisfies the threshold.

  • Publication number: 20220237080
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for device fault condition reporting are described. A host system may transmit, to a memory system, a command to perform an operation. The memory system may receive the command and identify a fault condition associated with performing the operation. The memory system may transmit, to the host system, a message that indicates the fault condition. After the memory system transmits the message, the memory system may enter a safe mode of operation based on identifying the fault condition.

  • Publication number: 20220164249
    Abstract: In various embodiments, techniques can be provided to address debug efficiency for failures found on an operational system. The techniques can utilize a real-time trigger to notify a memory device to dump an error log to timely capture all needed information. In response to detecting one or more error conditions associated with the memory device, a system that interfaces with the memory device can generate a trigger signal to the memory device. In response to identifying the trigger signal, the memory device can dump an error log of the memory device to a memory component in the memory device. The error log can later be retrieved from the memory component for failure analysis.
