POWER REGULATION FOR MEMORY SYSTEMS
Methods, systems, and devices for power regulation for memory systems are described. In one example, a memory system, such as a memory module, may include a substrate, and an input/output component coupled with the substrate and operable to communicate signals with a host system. The memory system may also include one or more memory devices coupled with the substrate and the input/output component and operable to store data for the host system. A memory device of the one or more memory devices may include a power management component in its package with one or more memory dies. The power management component may be coupled with the one or more memory dies, and feedback component, and may be operable to provide one or more supply voltages for the one or more memory dies based on one or more voltages associated with the memory system.

Temperature interpolation techniques for multiple integrated circuit references
Techniques for providing temperature trim codes to multiple reference circuits of an integrated circuit are provided. In an example, a string of primary latch circuits can provide a set of pre-defined temperature trim codes to a multiplexer in response to a token of a series of tokens. The multiplexer can provide two trim of the trim codes to an interpolator based on a temperature reading of the integrated circuit. The interpolator can provide an interpolated trim code and the trim code can be distributed to a reference circuit based on the token.
Memory with positively boosted write multiplexer
A memory is provided that includes a write multiplexer, which multiplexes among a plurality of bit line columns. The multiplexer includes a positive boost circuit that applies a positive boost to a voltage at the gates of transistors to strengthen an on state of those transistors. The positive boosting may be in addition to, or instead of, negative boosting at a write driver circuit.
