Title:
IMPROVED POWER SUPPLY FOR MEMORY DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/073177
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for an improved power supply for a memory device are described. An apparatus may include a memory device, one or more voltage detectors, and one or more voltage converters. A voltage detector may generate an output indicating whether a voltage at a first pin of the apparatus satisfies a threshold. A voltage converter may be coupled with the voltage detector and may be configured to selectively output a second voltage depending on the output of the voltage detector. Circuitry within the memory device may be coupled with one or more voltage detectors and one or more voltage converters and configured to select a supply voltage for another component of the memory device from among the first voltage (e.g., received from the first pin) and the second voltage (e.g., selectively generated and output by the voltage converter) based on the output from the voltage detector.
