摘要: A virtual ground sensing circuit includes a sense circuit configured to compare a reference voltage potential to a sense node voltage potential, and virtual ground circuitry operably coupled to the sense circuit. The virtual ground circuitry is configured to provide a virtual ground at a first bias voltage potential to a conductive line operably coupled to a selected ferroelectric memory cell, and discharge the conductive line to the sense node responsive to the selected ferroelectric memory cell changing from a first polarization state to a second polarization state. A method includes applying a second bias voltage potential to another conductive line operably coupled to the selected ferroelectric memory cell, and comparing a sense node voltage potential to a reference voltage potential. Electrical systems and computing devices include virtual ground sensing circuits.

摘要: Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to monitoring the integrity of power signals within memory systems. A method can include receiving a power signal at a memory component, and monitoring, via a power signal monitoring component of the memory component, an integrity characteristic of the power signal. Responsive to the integrity characteristic meeting a particular criteria, the method can include providing a status indication to a control component external to the memory component.

摘要: The disclosure describes a programmable power management system for NAND Flash devices. In one embodiment, dedicated match logic is provided to store program counters responsible for peak power consumption of one or more NAND Flash dies. Upon detecting that a current program counter equals a stored program counter, a high current enable signal is toggled causing at least one NAND Flash die to suspend operations, thereby reducing peak power consumption of the NAND Flash device.
