Publication number: 20240345621Abstract: Devices and techniques are disclosed herein for determining, using a host device, a timing relationship between a data strobe signal, such as from an embedded MultiMediaCard (eMMC) device, and an internal clock signal. The host device can control a delay circuit using the determined timing relationship, such as to align received read data for sampling, or to determine or adjust a delay value of the delay circuit.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Inventors: Claudio Giaccio, Ferdinando Pascale, Erminio Di Martino, Raffaele Mastrangelo, Ferdinando D'Alessandro, Andrea Castaldo, Cristiano Castellano

Patent number: 11309055Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed, including test systems for memory devices. Example test systems and methods include power loss logic to determine when one or more test conditions have been met in a memory operation between a host device and a memory device under test. Example test systems and methods include a function to then instruct a power management device to trigger a power loss event.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2018Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Claudio Giaccio, Ferdinando Pascale, Raffaele Mastrangelo, Erminio Di Martino, Ferdinando D'Alessandro, Cristiano Castellano, Andrea Castaldo

Patent number: 7180786Abstract: A row decoder for an electrically programmable NAND memory further includes a first means for keeping at least a control node of an addressed memory block charged at a select voltage. A second means decouples all select lines from a global select line. A third means provides an access voltage to the select line corresponding to an addressed memory block for enabling respective access elements and for providing an access inhibition voltage to the select lines corresponding to a non-addressed memory block. The first, second and third means are activatable in a testing operation.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2005Date of Patent: February 20, 2007Assignee: STMicroelectronics, S.R.L.Inventors: Raffaele Mastrangelo, Carlo Borromeo
