20140082250 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD (eMMC), HOST FOR CONTROLLING eMMC, AND METHOD OPERATION FOR eMMC SYSTEM - An eMMC includes flash memory including an extended card specific data (CSD) register (“EXT_CSD register”), and an eMMC controller that controls operation of the flash memory. The eMMC controller is receives a clock from a host via a clock line, receives a SEND_EXT_CSD command from the host via a command line, and provides the host with eMMC information stored in the EXT_CSD register via a data bus in response to the SEND_EXT_CSD command, the eMMC information including maximum operating frequency information for the eMMC. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082267 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD (eMMC), HOST CONTROLLING eMMC, AND METHOD OPERATING eMMC SYSTEM - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) includes a flash memory and an eMMC controller that controls operation of the flash memory. The eMMC controller includes a command register that receives from a host a command set defining a next operation specifying second data simultaneously with a transfer of first data specified by a current operation, a first memory that stores the first data, and a second memory that stores the second data. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082397 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD USING UNIDIRECTIONAL DATA STROBE SIGNAL, HOST FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND RELATED METHODS OF OPERATION - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) comprises a clock channel configured to receive a clock signal from a host, a command channel configured to receive a command from the host, a plurality of data channels configured to transmit data to the host, a data strobe channel configured to transmit a data strobe signal synchronized with the data to the host, and a data strobe control unit configured to selectively enable or generate the data strobe signal according to a protocol control signal. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082398 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD (eMMC), HOST CONTROLLING eMMC, AND METHOD OPERATING eMMC SYSTEM - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) is provided. The eMMC includes a clock channel receiving a clock output from a host, data channels receiving data signals from the host, and a command channel receiving a SWITCH command including delay offset values from the host so as to adjust a delay of at least one of the data signals, which are received, in response to the delay offset values. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082402 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD (eMMC), HOST FOR CONTROLLING eMMC METHOD OPERATING eMMC SYSTEM - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) includes a clock channel receiving a clock from a host, a complementary clock channel receiving a complementary clock from the host, a command/response channel exchanging commands/responses with the host, a plurality of data channels exchanging data between the host and the eMMC, a return clock channel sending a return clock to the host synchronously with data, a complementary return clock channel sending a complementary return clock to the host, and a reference voltage channel that either receives a reference voltage from the host or communicates a reference voltage to the host. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082404 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD (eMMC), eMMC SYSTEM, AND METHODS OF OPERATION - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) communicating with a host includes; a latch circuit that receives and latches a data signal according to either a first edge or a second edge of a clock to thereby generate a latched data signal, and a start bit detector that detects in the latched data signal a start bit and provides a valid data signal from a portion of the latched data signal following the start bit. | 03-20-2014 |
20140082405 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD (eMMC), HOST CONTROLLING eMMC, AND METHOD OPERATING eMMC SYSTEM - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) includes a clock channel that receives a clock signal from a host, a command channel that receives a command from the host, a plurality of data channels that transmit data to the host, and a return clock channel that transmits a return clock synchronized with the data to the host. | 03-20-2014 |
20150199137 | EMBEDDED MULTIMEDIA CARD AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - An embedded multimedia card (eMMC) and a method of operating the same are provided. The eMMC includes a flash memory and a device controller configured to control the flash memory. The device controller includes a command storage unit configured to receive a command transmitted from a host regardless of a state of a data bus and to store task information by task ID; and a status storage unit configured to store status information based on task status by task ID. | 07-16-2015 |
