Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure may relate to a memory controller that may include a main controller to begin a power down of a non-volatile memory storage during a first time period, while operating in a first voltage range, wherein the main controller is to begin the power down of the non-volatile memory in response to an indication of a voltage level being below a predetermined threshold; and a sequencer to continue the power down of the memory storage during a second time period, while operating within a second voltage range lower than the first voltage range. In some embodiments, the sequencer may include a state machine to perform a discharge sequence, where the state machine includes a micro-action output to output a micro-action command to the memory storage based at least in part on a current state of the state machine. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Methods for providing redundancy and apparatuses are disclosed. One such method for providing redundancy performs a mapping of data between an address of a memory determined to indicate a defective memory cell and an address of a redundant area of the memory, only after the data has been loaded into a buffer. The direction of the mapping is determined by the operation (e.g., programming or reading).
