Patents by Inventor Sang Jhun HWANG

Sang Jhun HWANG has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9548091
    Abstract: A memory module having an address mirroring function is provided. The memory module includes a register that allows mode registers of first memory chips of a first rank and mode registers of second memory chips of a second rank to be identically programmed in response to a mode register set (MRS) command during a rank-merged test mode. The register sets address signals, which are symmetrically connected to the first and second memory chips through through-via-holes (TVHs) or blind-via-holes (BVHs) of a printed circuit board, to be selectively mirrored.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 8, 2015
    Date of Patent: January 17, 2017
    Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.

  • Patent number: 9164139
    Abstract: A memory device includes a memory cell array and a data input/output circuit. The memory cell array includes a plurality of memory cells connected to a plurality of bit lines and a plurality of word lines. The data input/output circuit is configured to receive data from external data pins of the memory device, output the received data to the memory cell array through a plurality of input/output lines electrically coupled to the plurality of bit lines, receive data read from the memory cell array through the plurality of input/output lines, and output the read data through the external data pins. For each external data pin, the data input/output circuit is configured to output data received at the external data pin to a corresponding input/output line. The corresponding input/output line is selected in response to bit values of a set of bits included in the received data.
