Emily P. Chung has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11789880
    Abstract: A storage circuit includes a buffer coupled between the storage controller and the nonvolatile memory devices. The circuit includes one or more groups of nonvolatile memory (NVM) devices, a storage controller to control access to the NVM device, and the buffer. The buffer is coupled between the storage controller and the NVM devices. The buffer is to re-drive signals on a bus between the NVM devices and the storage controller, including synchronizing the signals to a clock signal for the signals. The circuit can include a data buffer, a command buffer, or both.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20190278503
    Abstract: A method is described. The method includes performing write operations on a plurality of NVRAM semiconductor chips of a memory module while tracking power budget headroom for performing the write operations and while monitoring current draw on a supply voltage rail that is coupled to the plurality of NVRAM semiconductor chips. The method further includes detecting the current draw has reached a threshold. The method further includes ceasing or diminishing the write operations in response to the detecting.
