METHOD FOR REDUCING POWER CONSUMPTION OF FLASH MEMORY, AND DEVICE FOR SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/092465
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for reducing the power consumption of a flash memory, and a device for same. The method for reducing the power consumption of a flash memory, according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprises: a step for receiving a programme code; a step for analyzing the received programme code; a step for calculating the toggle number of a bit value according to a command of the programme code, resulting from the analysis of the programme code; a step for performing a bit conversion on the bit value of the programme code on the basis of the calculated toggle number; and a step for storing the bit converted programme code in a flash memory. Therein, in the calculation step, the toggle number is calculated on the basis of the command execution order of the programme code, and thus when the data stored in the flash memory is being read, the power consumption due to pre-charge generated by toggle can be reduced.
