Write Endurance Management Techniques in the Logic Layer of a Stacked Memory

A method for storing data, comprising:

• receiving, at a memory device, an address and data, the memory device including a logic layer and a memory layer;
• converting, using the logic layer, the address to a memory location of a memory based on a mapping table;
• and
• storing, using the logic layer, in the memory layer, the data to the memory location of the memory.

A computer processing system comprising:

• a processing unit;
• and
• a memory device, coupled to the processing unit, comprising:
• a memory layer configured to store data;
• and
• a logic layer within the memory device coupled to the memory layer comprising:
• an Input/Output (“I/O”) port configured to receive a write command that comprises a write address and data;
• a memory map configured to maintain a memory table that associates a plurality of addresses with a plurality of memory locations in the memory layer and to return an associated memory location corresponding to the write address;
• and
• a controller coupled to both the I/O port and the memory map and configured to store the data in the associated memory location in the memory layer.
