Innogrit Technologies Assigned Patent

Innogrit Technologies Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China, has been assigned a patent (10,719,394) developed by Chen, Jie, Milpitas, CA, and Wu, Zining, Los Altos, CA, for “systems and methods for fast access of non-volatile storage devices.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”Systems, apparatus and methods are provided for providing fast non-volatile storage access with ultra-low latency. A method may comprise receiving data pieces from a plurality of channels of a non-volatile storage device, assembling the data pieces into one or more error correction code (ECC) encoded codewords, and triggering an ECC engine to decode a codeword to generate decoded data to be returned to a host when the codeword is assembled. Each codeword may have data pieces retrieved from different channels. Thus, a data unit containing one or more ECC codewords may be spread into multiple channels of a non-volatile storage device and access latency may be improved by accessing multiple channels in parallel. An averaging effect may be achieved for an ECC codeword and ECC failures may be reduced. Fast NANDs implementing the techniques disclosed herein may achieve ultra-fast access and response time while maintaining a high throughput.”

The patent application was filed on April 2, 2018 (15/943,323).
