Patent number: 10915321Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for performing memory operations are described. An example apparatus includes a memory operation controller. The memory operation controller is configured to receive memory instructions and decode the same to provide internal signals for performing memory operations for the memory instructions. The memory operation controller is further configured to provide information indicative of a time for a variable latency period of a memory instruction during the variable latency period. In an example method, a write instruction and an address to which write data is to be written is received at a memory and an acknowledgement indicative of an end of a variable latency period for the write instruction is provided. After waiting a variable bus turnaround after the acknowledgement, write data for the write instruction is received.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2018Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Graziano Mirichigni, Corrado Villa, Luca Porzio, Chee Weng Tan, Sebastien Lemarie, Andre Klindworth

Patent number: 10860482Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for providing data to a configurable storage area are described herein. An example apparatus may include an extended address register including a plurality of configuration bits indicative of an offset and a size, an array having a storage area, a size and offset of the storage area based, at least in part, on the plurality of configuration bits, and a buffer configured to store data, the data including data intended to be stored in the storage area. A memory control unit may be coupled to the buffer and configured to cause the buffer to store the data intended to be stored in the storage area in the storage area of the array responsive, at least in part, to a flush command.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2019Date of Patent: December 8, 2020Assignee: Micron Technology, Inc.Inventors: Graziano Mirichigni, Luca Porzio, Erminio Di Martino, Giacomo Bernardi, Domenico Monteleone, Stefano Zanardi, Chee Weng Tan, Sebastien LeMarie, Andre Klindworth
