Patents by Inventor Yun Shun Tan

Yun Shun Tan 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: 9342246
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising an interface and a control circuit. The interface may be configured to process a plurality of read/write operations to/from a memory. The control circuit may be configured to determine if a read disturb has occurred. If the read disturb has occurred, the control circuit may (a) determine a size of a group of the read/write operations and (b) write all of the group of the read/write operations to one of a plurality of memory modules of the memory.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9235346
    Abstract: Described embodiments provide a solid-state drive (SSD) including a media controller and a solid-state media. A control processor of the media controller determines a logical address, a transfer size, and map data based on the logical address and transfer size, associated with a read request received from a host device. Based on the logical address and a sequential zone defined based on one or more previous read requests, the control processor determines whether the received read request is a sequential read. A map data pre-fetch size is adjusted based on the transfer size of the received read request and whether the received read request is a sequential read. A corresponding portion of the map data is transferred from the solid-state media to a map cache coupled to the control processor, the transferred portion having a size equal to the adjusted map data pre-fetch size.

  • Patent number: 9092310
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising a memory and a controller. The memory may be configured to process a plurality of read/write operations. The memory comprises a plurality of memory modules each having a size less than a total size of the memory. The controller is configured to (i) determine if a read disturb has occurred, and (ii) if the read disturb has occurred, the controller (a) determines a size of the group of read/write operations, and (b) writes all of the group of read/write operations to one of the memory modules.
