Methods, systems, and devices for die location detection for grouped memory dies are described. A memory device may include multiple memory die that are coupled with a shared bus. In some examples, each memory die may include a circuit configured to output an identifier associated with a location of the respective memory die. For example, a first memory die may output a first identifier, based on receiving one or more signals, that identifies a location of the first memory die. Identifying the locations of the respective memory dies may allow for the dies to be individually accessed despite being coupled with a shared bus.

Methods, systems, and devices for activate commands for memory preparation are described. A memory device may receive an activate command for a row of a memory bank in the memory device. The activate command may include an indicator that indicates a type of an access operation associated with the activate command. The memory device may perform, based on the type of the access operation, an operation to prepare the memory device for the access operation. The memory device may then receive an access command for the access operation after performing the operation to prepare the memory device for the access operation.

An address control circuit includes an address timing control circuit configured to latch address signals inputted from outside the address timing control circuit, sequentially store the latched signals at predetermined timings, and output the stored signals as a bank group address. The address control circuit also includes an address multiplexing circuit configured to generate bank group select signals according to the bank group address. The address multiplexing circuit is configured to generate the bank group select signals having a second value according to the bank group address having a first value when a preset memory access mode is a first memory access mode, and generate the bank group select signals having the second value according to the bank group address having a third value different from the first value when the preset memory access mode is a second memory access mode.

A memory controller component of a memory system stores memory access requests within a transaction queue until serviced so that, over time, the transaction queue alternates between occupied and empty states. The memory controller transitions the memory system to a low power mode in response to detecting the transaction queue is has remained in the empty state for a predetermined time. In the transition to the low power mode, the memory controller disables oscillation of one or more timing signals required to time data signaling operations within synchronous communication circuits of one or more attached memory devices and also disables one or more power consuming circuits within the synchronous communication circuits of the one or more memory devices.

An input sampling method includes the following operations. A first pulse signal and a second pulse signal are received. Logical operation is performed on the first pulse signal and the second pulse signal to determine a to-be-sampled signal. The to-be-sampled signal is obtained by shielding an invalid part of the second pulse signal according to a logical operation result. Sampling process is performed on the to-be-sampled signal to obtain a target sampled signal.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems related to coordinating a set of timing-critical operations across parallel processing pipelines are described. The coordination may include selectively using (1) circuitry associated with a corresponding pipeline to generate enable signals associated with the timing critical operations when a separation between the operations corresponds to a number of pipelines or (2) circuitry associated with a non-corresponding or another pipeline when the separation is not a factor of the number of pipelines.

An operating method for a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) obtains a plurality of first sub-commands of a first activate command via a command bus, and obtaining a plurality of first address information regarding a plurality of first portions of a first row address of a specific bank via an address bus. Each of the first sub-commands corresponds to an individual first portion of the first row address of the specific bank. The method further combines the first portions of the first row address of the specific bank in response to a specific sub-command of the first sub-commands, so as to obtain a first complete row address; and obtains an access command via the command bus.

Systems, apparatus and methods are provided for multi-drop multi-load NAND interface topology where a number of NAND flash devices share a common data bus with a NAND controller. A method for controlling on-die termination in a non-volatile storage device may comprise receiving a chip enable signal on a chip enable signal line from a controller, receiving an on-die termination (ODT) command on a data bus from the controller while the chip enable signal is on, decoding the on-die termination command and applying termination resistor (RTT) settings in the ODT command to a selected non-volatile storage unit at the non-volatile storage device to enable ODT for the selected non-volatile storage unit.

Apparatuses and methods for writing and storing parameter codes for operating parameters, and selecting between the parameter codes to set an operating condition for a memory are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a first mode register and a second mode register. The first mode register is configured to store first and second parameter codes for a same operating parameter. The second mode register is configured to store a parameter code for a control parameter to select between the first and second parameter codes to set a current operating condition for the operating parameter. An example method includes storing in a first register a first parameter code for an operating parameter used to set a first memory operating condition, and further includes storing in a second register a second parameter code for the operating parameter used to set a second memory operating condition.

Memory devices are disclosed. A memory device may include a command and address (CA) interface region including a first CA input circuit configured to generate a first CA output AND a second CA input circuit configured to generate a second CA output. The first CA input circuit and the second CA input circuit are arranged in a mirror relationship. The CA interface region further includes a swap circuit configured to select one of the first CA output and the second CA output for a first internal CA signal and select the other of the first CA output and the second CA output for a second internal CA signal. Memory systems and systems are also disclosed.
