PEAK POWER MANAGEMENT IN A MEMORY DEVICE

Abstract:

A variety of applications can include a memory device having a memory die designed to control a power budget for a cache and a memory array of the memory die. A first flag received from a data path identifies a start of a cache operation on the data and a second flag from the data path identifies an end of the cache operation. A controller for peak power management can be implemented to control the power budget based on determination of usage of current associated with the cache from the first and second flags. In various embodiments, the controller can be operable to feedback a signal to a memory controller external to the memory die to adjust an operating speed of an interface from the memory controller to the memory die. Additional devices, systems, and methods are discussed.
