Patents by Inventor Shu-Lei CHEN

Shu-Lei CHEN 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).

  • Data storage device, non-volatile memory operating method, and method for executing operational commands to operate a data storage medium via a shared channel and optimized by task switching commands
    Patent number: 11157175
    Abstract: An optimized non-volatile memory operating method. A data storage device has a plurality of non-volatile memory spaces, a plurality of command queues, and a controller. The command queues are provided to correspond to the non-volatile memory spaces one on one. The controller adds task switching commands into the command queues. The non-volatile memory spaces are operated through the same channel. The sharing of the same channel between the non-volatile memory spaces is optimized by the task switching commands.
    Type: Grant

  • Data storage device, non-volatile memory operating method, and method for executing operational commands to operate a data storage medium
    Patent number: 10691342
    Abstract: An optimized non-volatile memory operating method. A data storage device has a plurality of non-volatile memory spaces and a plurality of command queues. The command queues are provided to correspond to the non-volatile storage memory one on one. The same channel is shared to operate the non-volatile memory spaces. To deal with the one channel communication technology, the data storage device adopts task switching mechanisms to switch between the different command queues for execution of the operational commands queued in the different command queues.
