Disclosed are methods, systems and devices for operation of memory device. In one aspect, volatile memory bitcells and non-volatile memory bitcells may be integrated to facilitate copying of memory states between the volatile and non-volatile memory bitcells.

As disclosed herein, a non-volatile memory circuit includes an array of memory cells. The non-volatile memory circuit also includes circuitry for performing a hard write to selective bits of addressed cells simultaneously with a normal write to the other bits of the addressed cells during a write operation to the addressed cells.

Memory devices, controllers and associated methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, a memory device is disclosed. The memory device includes storage cells that are each formed with a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor having a floating body. Data is stored as charge in the floating body. A transfer interface receives a read command to access data stored in a first group of the storage cells. Sensing circuitry detects the data stored in the first group of storage cells. The transfer interface selectively performs a writeback operation of the sensed data associated with the read command.

A memory system may include: a memory device having a plurality of banks, each comprising a memory cell region including a plurality of memory cells, and a page buffer unit; and a controller suitable for receiving a write address and write data from a host, and controlling a write operation of the memory device, wherein the controller comprises: a page buffer table (PBT) comprising fields to retain the same data as the page buffer units of the respective banks; and a processor suitable for comparing the write data to data stored in a field of the PBT, corresponding to the write address, and controlling the memory device to write the write data or the data stored in the page buffer unit to memory cells selected according to the write address, based on a comparison result.

In the described examples, a memory controller includes a read-modify-write logic module that receives a partial write data request for partial write data in error-correcting code (ECC) memory and combines the partial write data in the partial write data request with read data provided from the ECC memory to form combined data prior to correcting the read data. The memory controller also includes a write control module that controls the writing of the combined data to the ECC memory.

A memory system comprises a first memory device and a processing device operatively coupled to the first memory device. The processing device is configured to determine whether to execute a write cycle, at the first memory device, to write data from a second memory device to the first memory device based on persisted data stored by the first memory device.

A memory controlling device configured to connect to a memory module including a resistance switching memory cell array which is partitioned into a plurality of partitions including a first partition and a second partition is provided. A first controlling module accesses the memory module. A second controlling module determines whether there is a conflict for the first partition to which a read request targets when an incoming request is the read request, instructs the first controlling module to read target data of the read request from the memory module when a write to the second partition is in progress, and suspends the read request when a write to the first partition is in progress.
