HOST ACCELERATED OPERATIONS IN MANAGED NAND DEVICES

Abstract:

Devices and techniques for host accelerated operations in managed NAND devices are described herein. A host logical-to-physical (L2P) table of the NAND device has an associated map. Entries in the map correspond to one or more logical addresses (LA) and indicate whether the host L2P table is current for those LAs. If the table is not current, then a request will bypass the host L2P table, using a standard device L2P lookup instead. Otherwise, the host L2P table can be used.
