  • Patent number: 8612836
    Abstract: The non-volatile memory system includes a non-volatile memory and a controller. The non-volatile memory includes a data region including a sector region for storing sector data, and an uncorrectable information region for storing uncorrectable sector information on the sector region. The controller includes an information generation unit for generating the uncorrectable sector information that indicates whether the sector region is assigned to an uncorrectable sector region, according to a command output from a host.

  • Publication number: 20120210076
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of operating a data storage device. The method includes; causing the data storage device to transition from an off-line state to an on-line state, receiving a current global time as communicated from a host during the on-line state, and during the on-line state, refreshing data stored in the data storage device in response to the current global time using at least one normal data retention operation.

  • Patent number: 7630030
    Abstract: Disclosed is an LCD device and a method for fabricating the same is disclosed, which maximizes light efficiency by compensating for light transmissivity resulting from the alignment of the liquid crystal in a plurality of alignment domains within a pixel region. Compensation is accomplished by a polarizing sheet having a plurality of polarizing regions corresponding to the alignment domains, wherein each polarizing region has a transmission angle that corresponds to the alignment angle of the corresponding domain so that light leakage in a black state can be minimized.
