Abstract
A memory component includes a memory configured to store an updatable trim profile that is user-modifiable. The updatable trim profile includes address information corresponding to a trim register to be modified, command information corresponding to an action to be performed, and data corresponding to the action to be performed. A processing device that is coupled to the memory component is configured to receive an instruction to modify the trim register, read contents of the updatable trim profile, and modify the trim register based on the address information, the action to be performed on the trim register, and the data.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a memory component having:
- a memory comprising a memory cell array and configured to store an updatable trim profile that is user-modifiable in the memory cell array, the updatable trim profile including:
- address information corresponding to a trim register,
- command information corresponding to an action to be performed on the trim register, and
- data corresponding to the action to be performed on the trim register;
- and
- a processing device, coupled to the memory component, the processing device configured to:
- receive an instruction related to the trim register,
- read contents, including the address information, the command information, and the data, of the updatable trim profile, and
- process the action to be performed on the trim register based on the address information from the updatable trim profile and the data from the updatable trim profile.
A method, comprising:
- receiving an instruction related to a trim register of a memory component of a memory sub-system;
- reading contents of an updatable trim profile that is user-modifiable and stored in a memory cell array of a memory of the memory component, the updatable trim profile including:
- address information corresponding to the trim register,
- command information corresponding to an action to be performed on the trim register, and
- data corresponding to the action to be performed on the trim register;
- and
- processing the action to be performed on the trim register based on the address information from the updatable trim profile and the data from the updatable trim profile.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:
- receive an instruction related to a trim register of a memory component of a memory sub-system;
- read contents of an updatable trim profile that is user-modifiable and stored in a memory cell array of a memory of the memory component, the updatable trim profile including:
- address information corresponding to the trim register,
- command information corresponding to an action to be performed on the trim register, and
- data corresponding to the action to be performed on the trim register;
- and
- process the action to be performed on the trim register based on the address information from the updatable trim profile and the data from the updatable trim profile.
