Abstract
An electronic device, which includes a host, and a storage device receiving a command from the host. The storage device processes the received command and returns, to the host, a command response indicating a result of processing the received command, and the command response includes information about an internal temperature of the storage device.
Claims31
An electronic device, comprising:
- a storage device configured to receive a request from a host;
- and
- a sensor configured to measure a temperature of the storage device;
- wherein the storage device is configured to store a value of an upper limit temperature and a value of a lower limit temperature, and to output a value of a first bit and a value of a second bit to the host in response to the request, and
- wherein the storage device is further configured to set the value of the first bit when a temperature of the storage device is higher than the upper limit temperature and to set the value of the second bit when the temperature of the storage device is lower than the lower limit temperature.
2 more elements
A storage device, comprising:
- a non-volatile memory device configured to store data;
- and
- a controller configured to store a value of an upper limit temperature and a value of a lower limit temperature, and to output a value of a first bit and a value of a second bit to a host in response to a request from the host, and
- wherein the controller is further configured to set the value of the first bit when a temperature of the storage device is higher than the upper limit temperature and to set the value of the second bit when the temperature of the storage device is lower than the lower limit temperature.
1 more element
A storage device, comprising:
- a non-volatile memory device configured to store data;
- a controller configured to store a value of an upper limit temperature and a value of a lower limit temperature, and to output a value of a first bit and a value of a second bit to an application processor in response to a request received from the application processor, and
- a sensor configured to measure a temperature of the storage device,
- the non-volatile memory device and the controller being configured for installation in a vehicle,
- wherein the controller comprises:
- a first register configured to manage the value of the upper limit temperature;
- a second register configured to manage the value of the lower limit temperature;
- and
- wherein the controller is further configured to set the value of the first bit to one when a temperature of the storage device is higher than the upper limit temperature and to set the value of the second bit to one when the temperature of the storage device is lower than the lower limit temperature.
