摘要： A system and methods are given for providing information on the amount of life remaining for a memory having a limited lifespan, such as a flash memory card. For example, it can provide a user with the amount of the memory's expected remaining lifetime in real time units or as a percentage of estimated initial life. An end of life warning can also be provided. The memory device can be resized by host command. In an exemplary embodiment, a host can send a request to the memory device obtain its status and the size of logical units with which it operates. Based on this information, portions of the memory device can be erased, after which it can be reformatted and operated with a reduce capacity.

摘要： A memory system comprises an encryption engine implemented in the hardware of a controller. In starting up the memory system, a boot strapping mechanism is implemented wherein a first portion of firmware when executed pulls in another portion of firmware to be executed. The hardware of the encryption engine is used to verify the integrity of at least the first portion of the firmware. Therefore, only the firmware that is intended to run the system will be executed.

摘要： A memory card of one published standard, such as the Multi-Media Card (MMC) or Secure Digital Card (SD), is modified to include the function of a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) according to another published standard. The controller of the memory card communicates between electrical contacts on the outside of the card and both the memory and the SIM. In one specific form, the memory card has the physical configuration of the current Plug-in SIM card with a few external contacts added to accommodate the memory controller and data memory. In another specific form, the memory card has the physical configuration of the current SD card, including external contacts.

摘要： A method and system of providing movies or other content is provided where a flash drive or flash memory card is used in place of DVD's or other formats. A user receives the content on the flash drive from a kiosk. The system ensures that a codec supported by the player of the user will be utilized to encode the content, or in certain embodiments a corresponding codec is provided along with the movie. Authentication and encryption mechanisms ensure that the movie is only provided to an authentic card and/or player from a kiosk, so that the movies cannot be provided to flash devices that do not have proper security mechanisms to safeguard the content or to those not authorized to otherwise receive the movie.

摘要： A buffer cache interposed between a non-volatile memory and a host may be partitioned into segments that may operate with different policies. Cache policies include write-through, write and read-look-ahead. Write-through and write back policies may improve speed. Read-look-ahead cache allows more efficient use of the bus between the buffer cache and non-volatile memory. A session command allows data to be maintained in volatile memory by guaranteeing against power loss.

摘要： A non-volatile memory system goes into a low-power standby sleep mode to reduce power consumption if a host command is not received within delay period. The duration of this delay period is adjustable. In one set of embodiments, host commands can specify the delay value, the operation types to which it applies, and whether the value is power the current power session or to be used to reset a default value as well. In other aspects, the parameters related to the delay value are kept in a host resettable parameter file. In other embodiments, the memory system monitors the time between host commands and adjusts this delay automatically.

摘要： Methods and systems for working around the timeout limitations of physical interface standards for detachable modules. By use of dummy data blocks to keep the bus active, the bus timeout requirements (in either direction) can be spoofed, to thereby permit more complex processing operations to be performed that may exceed the bus timeout of a particular specification. A controller in the memory system deasserts the ready signal and holds the bus connecting the computer system in a “busy” state until the memory system is about to timeout. During a write operation, the controller receives dummy data blocks from the computer system before the write bus timeout period expires, causing the bus timeout period to be reset. During a read operation, the controller sends dummy data blocks to the computer system before the read bus timeout period expires, causing the bus timeout period to be reset.
摘要翻译：解决可拆卸模块物理接口标准超时限制的方法和系统。通过使用虚拟数据块来保持总线有效，可以欺骗总线超时要求（在任一方向上），从而允许执行可能超过特定规范的总线超时的更复杂的处理操作。存储器系统中的控制器取消准备就绪信号并保持连接计算机系统处于“忙”状态的总线，直到存储器系统即将超时。在写入操作期间，控制器在写入总线超时时间到期之前从计算机系统接收虚拟数据块，导致总线超时周期被复位。在读操作期间，控制器在读总线超时时间到期之前，向计算机系统发送伪数据块，导致总线超时时间被重置。

摘要： In a non-volatile memory system, test data may be retrieved by means of a circuit without the help of firmware. The circuit is triggered into action when it detects an abnormality in the processor or host interface. In such event, it formats the self test or status signals from the various blocks in the non-volatile memory system controller and sends a test message to the outside world without the assistance of the system processor or interface controller. When implemented in memory systems with multiple data lines, only one of the data lines may be utilized for such purpose, thereby allowing the testing to be performed while the system is still performing data transfer. Preferably, the system includes the test mode communication controller, which can select between a test channel and a host interface channel for the test message transfer so that the same testing may be performed when the memory system is in the test package as well as in an encapsulated package. The test message is transmitted repeatedly and the test message is structured so that it is easier for the receiver host to decipher the message without a handshake with the memory system. A communication controller preferably detects whether any of the communication channels is not used by the controller of a non-volatile memory system for sending signals and sends diagnostic signals through such channel.
摘要翻译：在非易失性存储器系统中，测试数据可以通过电路在没有固件的帮助下检索。当它检测到处理器或主机接口中的异常时，电路被触发成动作。在这种情况下，它会从非易失性存储器系统控制器中的各个块格式化自检或状态信号，并且在没有系统处理器或接口控制器的帮助的情况下向外界发送测试消息。当在具有多个数据线的存储器系统中实现时，只有一条数据线可以用于此目的，从而允许在系统仍在执行数据传输时执行测试。优选地，系统包括测试模式通信控制器，其可以在测试信道和用于测试消息传送的主机接口信道之间进行选择，使得当存储器系统处于测试包中时也可以执行相同的测试封装包装。测试消息被重复发送，并且测试消息被构造为使得接收者主机更容易解密消息而不与存储器系统进行握手。通信控制器优选地检测用于发送信号的非易失性存储器系统的控制器是否没有使用任何通信信道，并且通过这样的信道发送诊断信号。
