NONVOLATILE MEMORY DEVICE WITH ON-DIE CONTROL AND DATA SIGNAL TERMINATION

摘要

In a non-volatile memory device having an array of non-volatile storage elements, control information received via one or more control input nodes indicates, at different times, that (i) data signals representative of data to be stored within the array of non-volatile storage elements are to be received via a plurality of input/output (I/O) nodes of the non-volatile memory device, and (ii) data signals representative of data read from the array of non-volatile storage elements are to be output via the plurality of I/O nodes. First termination elements are switchably coupled to and decoupled from the I/O nodes based at least in part on the control information, and second termination elements are switchably coupled to and decoupled from the one or more control input nodes based at least in part on the control information.

1. A non-volatile memory device comprising:
an array of non-volatile storage elements; a plurality of input/output (I/O) nodes to receive data signals representative of data to be stored within the array of non-volatile storage elements and to output data signals representative of data read from the array of non-volatile storage elements; one or more control input nodes to receive control information indicating that data signals are to be received or output via the I/O nodes during a subsequent time interval; and on-die termination circuitry to switchably couple and decouple respective termination elements to and from the I/O nodes based at least in part on the control information, and also to switchably couple and decouple respective termination elements to and from the one or more control input nodes.
