ADDRESS TRANSLATION BETWEEN A MEMORY CONTROLLER AND AN EXTERNAL MEMORY DEVICE

摘要

In one or more embodiments, address translation is performed over a dedicated serial bus between a non-volatile memory controller and a memory device that is external from the non-volatile memory device. The memory controller accesses memory address translation data in the external memory device to determine a physical address that corresponds to a logical memory address. The controller can then use the physical memory address to generate memory signals for the non-volatile memory array.
