  • CLOCK RETIMING CIRCUIT
    Publication number: 20190163228
    Abstract: A clock retiming circuit and method of operating a clock retiming circuit are described herein. A clock retiming circuit generates a retimed clock based on an input clock. The clock retiming circuit may have a normal mode when the input clock is available to the clock retiming circuit, and a retention mode that is entered in response to the input clock no longer being present. The clock retiming circuit resumes the normal mode in response to the clock again being present. The retention mode is a low current mode, in one aspect. Thus, the clock retiming circuit may operate in a low current mode when the input clock is not available. The clock retiming circuit may be tolerant to loss of the input clock. The clock retiming circuit may quickly re-establish the retimed clock in response to the input clock again becoming available.

  • METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR VARIABLE SIZE LOGICAL PAGE MANAGEMENT BASED ON HOT AND COLD DATA
    Publication number: 20190114272
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for management of a flash translation layer (FTL) for a non-volatile memory (NVM) in a Solid State Drive (SSD). The methods and apparatus provide a logical to physical (L2P) table where a first portion of the table is used for mapping frequently accessed hot data to a first subdrive in the NVM. Additionally, a second portion of the L2P table is provided for mapping cold data less frequently accessed than the hot data to a second subdrive, where logical blocks for storing the cold data in the second subdrive are larger than logical blocks storing the hot data in the first subdrive. Separation of the L2P table into hot and cold subdrives reduces the L2P table size that is needed in RAM for logical to physical memory mapping, while at the same time provides lower write amplification and latencies, especially for large capacity SSDs.

  • External clock based clock generator
    Patent number: 10254783
    Abstract: A clock generation circuit includes a delay chain configured to generate an N-number of clock signals at a frequency multiple that is M-times the frequency of a reference clock signal. To generate the clock signals at the frequency multiple, a multiplexer selectively inputs, to the delay chain, a delayed reference clock signal and a last clock signal generated by a last delay cell of the delay chain. In addition, a delay control generator circuit periodically compares the phases of the delayed reference clock signal and the last clock signal to set the delay of the delay chain. The clock generation circuit generates the N-number of clock signals at the frequency multiple in response to receipt of the reference clock signal, and continues to generate the clock signals at the frequency multiple when the reference clock signal is no longer being received.
