  • Publication number: 20170300411
    Abstract: A data storage apparatus, memory controller, and or method operation method may be disclosed. The memory controller may include an address generator configured to generate an operation target address and a destination address. The memory controller may be configured to output the operation target address and the destination address. The memory controller may include a data processor configured to receive the operation target address, read data by accessing the corresponding address of the operation target address, perform an operation on the read data, access the destination address, and write a result of the operation in the accessed destination address.

  • Publication number: 20170300239
    Abstract: A data storage apparatus in accordance with an embodiment may include a memory device, a memory controller, and a media controller. The memory device may store data. The memory controller may output a packetized request signal for the memory device and receive a response signal to the packetized request signal according to a predetermined protocol. In response to a request packet provided from the memory controller, the media controller may generate a media command corresponding to the memory device, perform a read or write operation on the memory device, generate a response packet upon completion of the read or write operation, and transmit the generated response packet to the memory controller.

  • Patent number: 9696941
    Abstract: A memory system may include a memory module accessed by a first address, a memory controller configured to provide a read or write command for the memory module according to a host request, and a memory buffer accessed by a second address. The memory buffer may include a register file having two or more entry spaces corresponding to interleaving units of the memory module, and the two or more entry spaces may be positioned in different address areas which are accessible at the same time.
