Publication number: 20230386584Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for correcting errors in unmatched memory devices. Various embodiments herein train a memory interface to determine a duty cycle timing for a clock signal in a data window formed by a data signal in a memory cell. The duty cycle timing identifies an initial trained timing in the data window at which a setup portion and a hold portion of the data window are approximately equal in length when the trigger signal is received at the initial trained timing. The embodiments herein also identify an event that shifts the duty cycle timing away from the initial trained timing, and triggers a retraining of the memory interface based on a determination that at least one of two points defined about the initial trained timing fails a two-point sampling.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 27, 2022Publication date: November 30, 2023Inventors: Venkatesh Prasad RAMACHANDRA, Jang Woo LEE, Srinivas RAJENDRA, Anil PAI

Patent number: 11829281Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for semi receiver side write training in a non-volatile memory system. The transmitting device has delay taps that control the delay between a data strobe signal and data signals sent on the communication bus. The delay taps on the transmitting device are more precise that can typically be fabricated on the receiving device (e.g., NAND memory die). However, the receiving device performs the comparisons between test data and expected data, which alleviates the need to read back the test data. After the different delays have been tested, the receiving device informs the transmitting device of the shortest and longest delays for which data was validly received. The transmitting device then sets the delay taps based on this information. Moreover, the write training can be performed in parallel on many receiving devices, which is very efficient.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2021Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: SanDisk Technologies LLCInventors: Jang Woo Lee, Srinivas Rajendra, Anil Pai, Venkatesh Ramachandra

Patent number: 11482262Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for per pin internal reference voltage generation for data receivers in non-volatile memory systems. A receiving circuit may have an on-die voltage generator that has inputs to receive a separate voltage magnitude select signal for each data receiver on the receiving circuit. The on-die voltage generator provides a separate reference voltage for each data receiver. This allows the reference voltage for each data receiver to be calibrated separately. A separate reference voltage for each data receiver compensates for variations between data paths, and provides for a wider data valid window than if the same reference voltage were used for all data receivers. Generating the different reference voltages on-die can potentially require a large area, as well as consume considerable power and/or current. A voltage divider and multiplexers may provide the different reference voltages, which saves space and is power and current efficient.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2021Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: SanDisk Technologies LLCInventors: Jang Woo Lee, Srinivas Rajendra, Anil Pai, Venkatesh Ramachandra
