Systems and methods for replacing data retrieved from memory

An electronic system such as an imaging system may include processing circuitry and memory circuitry. Data replacement circuitry may be interposed between the processing circuitry and the memory circuitry. In some implementations, the memory circuitry may be a read-only memory, and data replacement circuitry may be used to selectively replace executable firmware instructions stored on the read-only memory. The selective replacement operations may be based on an address that processing circuitry provides to access the memory circuitry. The data replacement circuitry may be implemented separately from the processing circuitry and the memory circuitry and may include a comparator block, registers, and switching circuitry.

Brewer update device and method

An update device for providing configuration updates, such as recipes, advertising content, software update(s), pricing updates and/or other changes to brewer parameters, to a brewer device. When turned on, the update device wirelessly connects to a cloud account associated with the brewer device. Any pending content updates associated with the cloud account are wirelessly delivered to the update device and stored. When the update device is connected to the brewer device, the update device emulates a disk drive to transfer the updates to the brewer device.

Apparatus for over the air update for vehicle and method therefor

An apparatus for over the air update (OTA) for a vehicle and a method therefor are provided. The apparatus includes a communication device to receive data for the OTA update of vehicle software from a sever, and a processor to control background transfer for the OTA update based on at least one of a network load update, a vehicle power state, a battery state, or an expected time for residual read-only memory (ROM) data transfer.

READ ONLY MEMORY (ROM)-EMULATED MEMORY (REM) PROFILE MODE OF MEMORY DEVICE

A programmable memory device includes a ROM block to store instructions associated with functionality of the programmable memory device, a memory array having reserved pages to store updates to be performed on the ROM block, and a controller coupled to the ROM block and the memory array. The controller is to, in response to receipt of a remote command from a vendor server via a host system, execute the instructions to perform operations including: executing a set features command to access the set of reserved pages, as an extension to one time programmable mode; programming a set of sub-feature parameters to a specified feature address of the reserved pages, where the set of sub-feature parameters are to trigger operation within a ROM-emulated memory (REM) profile mode; and programming a REM-profiled page of the reserved pages with REM data received from the vendor server via the host system.
