  • Memory architecture with serial peripheral interface
    Patent number: 7793031
    Abstract: A memory architecture includes a memory including a Command Set, and a serial peripheral interface (SPI) for connecting the memory to a generic host device. The SPI includes a data in line for supplying output data from the host device to inputs of the memory; a data out line for supplying output data from the memory to input of the host device; a clock line driven by the host device; and an enable line that allows the memory to be turned on and off by the host device. The memory is a NAND Flash Memory. The SPI includes an I/O registers block, including an SPI label register and a data register for driving separately data, commands and addresses directed to the memory from the corresponding SPI label registers.
