Abstract: Methods for powering up a memory device, for example, are disclosed. One such memory device includes power up circuitry configured to receive an external power supply and to provide an internal power supply to the memory device upon receipt of a command. The power up circuitry may be configured to provide the internal power supply limited to a peak current, or may be configured to provide the internal power supply not limited to a peak current. The memory device may be, for example, a synchronous dynamic random access memory (SDRAM) device or Flash memory.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for operating a memory device by issuing certain instructions to the memory device that specify a cache and/or memory array address where an operation is to occur. One such method may include loading data into a specified address of a cache of the memory device, in which the specified address of the cache of the memory device may be specified by a first program sequence received at an interface of the memory device from a host external to the memory device. The method may also include writing the data from the specified address of the cache of the memory device to a specified address of a memory array of the memory device, in which the specified address of the memory array of the memory device may be specified by a second program sequence received at the interface from the host.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided that include operating a NAND memory device via an SPI interface. One such method includes cache loading a NAND memory device including loading data into a cache of the NAND memory device, writing data from the cache of the NAND memory device to an address of a memory array of the NAND memory device, and polling to determine the status of the data being written.

Abstract: A method and a system for reducing the bandwidth access in video encoding are disclosed. The illuminance of the search area and the illuminance of the current macro block for motion estimation are fetched from a memory by a motion estimation module. The motion estimation is performed by finding the illuminance of a most fitted macro block which best matches the illuminance of the current macro block. Then a motion compensation module fetches the chrominance of the current macro block and the chrominance of the most fitted macro block from the memory to complete the attributes of the current macro block and the most fitted macro block separately. The motion compensation is performed according to the most fitted macro block and the current macro block by the motion compensation module. Thus, the illuminance of the current macro block and the most fitted macro block are reused in the motion compensation for reducing the memory bandwidth access.

Abstract: A power strip having multiple receptacles contains a replaceable surge protection module removably attached to the device body. On one preferred embodiment, an ON/OFF switch is provided for easy electricity cutoff to the receptacles of this power strip. A portion of the power strip has a recess with multiple prong holes configured to receive the surge protection module. The protection module has multiple prongs for insertion into the multiple prong holes. In addition to the surge protection the module provides, the electrical configuration for the present invention is such that if the protection module is not inserted and therefore not electrically connected into the power strip, no electricity will flow to the multiple receptacles in the power strip even if the ON/OFF switch is turned ON.
