Abstract: Disclosed are apparatus and methods for programming a plurality of nonvolatile memory (NVM) devices. Each NVM device self-generates and stores a unique encryption key. Each NVM device concurrently receives an image from a multiple-device programming system to which all the NVM devices are communicatively coupled. Each NVM device encrypts the received image using such NVM device's unique encryption key to produce a unique encrypted image for each NVM device. Each NVM device stores its unique encrypted image within a nonvolatile memory of such NVM device. The unique encryption key can then be securely transferred to a host device for decrypting the image accessed from one of the NVM devices.

Abstract: An overlaid erase block (EB) mapping scheme for a flash memory provides efficient wear-leveling and reduces mount operation latency. The overlaid EB mapping scheme maps a first type of EB onto one of a plurality of physical erase blocks, in a corresponding portion of the flash memory. The first type of EB includes a plurality of pointers. The overlaid EB mapping scheme also maps each of second and third types of EBs onto one of the physical EBs that is not mapped to the first type of EB. The second type of EBs store system management information and the third type of EBs store user data. When the flash memory is started up, the overlaid EB mapping scheme scans the corresponding portion to locate the first type of EB, locates the system EBs using the pointers, and locates the data EBs using the system management information.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for accessing data of a memory. A method embodiment operates by receiving one or more requests for data stored across at least a first memory area and a second memory area of a memory. The method continues with performing, by at least one processor, a wrapped read of data within a first memory area of the memory. The method then performs, by the at least one processor, a continuous read of data within a second memory area of the memory, the second memory area being adjacent to the first memory area. The continuous read starts at a first boundary of the second memory area, and is performed automatically after the wrapped read of data within the first memory area.
