Publication number: 20120005396Abstract: A single data bus to a memory device can be split up into a number of data bus portions, each of which is managed by a different respective controller chip of multiple controller chips. During a memory access to a respective memory device, each of the multiple controller chips controls a different corresponding portion of the data bus to retrieve data from or store data to the memory device depending on whether the access is a read or write. To perform the data access, a synchronizer circuit (internal and/or external to the memory controller chips) synchronizes the multiple memory controller chips such that one of the memory controller chips drives the address bus and/or control signals to the memory device. After setting the address to the memory device, the memory controller chips either read data from or write data to the memory device based on the address.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2007Publication date: January 5, 2012Inventors: Matthew G. Sargeant, Michael A. Kahn, Francis J. Stifter, JR., Jason P. Colangelo

Patent number: 7924456Abstract: An on-demand server system herein includes a memory controller that coordinates access to one or more flash-based memory devices. The flash devices store large amounts of video content that can be selectively viewed on-demand by each of multiple destinations over a respective network. In addition to having access to an array of flash memory devices, the memory controller has access to a corresponding read buffer and write buffer. Use of the read buffer and the write buffer enable the memory controller to switch between transferring data stored in the write buffer to the array of memory devices and transferring the data in the array of memory devices to the read buffer. The write buffer stores on-demand video content that can be selected for viewing by different users. The read buffer stores segments of the on-demand video content currently streamed to the users.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2007Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: Broadbus Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Michael A. Kahn, Matthew G. Sargeant, Francis J. Stifter, Jr.
