Mosaid Technologies Assigned Patent

Mosaid Technologies Inc., Ottawa, Canada, has been assigned a patent (11,049,574) developed by Kim, Jin-Ki, and Gillingham, Peter B., Ottawa, Canada, for a “non-volatile semiconductor memory having multiple external power supplies.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”A memory device includes core memory such as flash memory for storing data. The memory device includes a first power input to receive a first voltage used to power the flash memory. Additionally, the memory device includes a second power input to receive a second voltage. The memory device includes power management circuitry configured to receive the second voltage and derive one or more internal voltages. The power management circuitry supplies or conveys the internal voltages to the flash memory. The different internal voltages generated by the power management circuitry (e.g., voltage converter circuit) and supplied to the core memory enable operations such as read/program/erase with respect to cells in the core memory.”

The patent application was filed on May 29, 2020 (Appl. No.16/886,977).
