US 2021/0240384 A1 · MEMORY SYSTEM FOR WRITE OPERATION AND METHOD THEREOF

Abstract

A memory system includes a memory device and a controller. The controller receives data from a host, allocates buffers after a throttling delay, buffers the data in the buffers, provides the buffered data to the memory device for a write operation, generates a response associated with the write operation, and transmits the response to the host. The controller inserts a throttling delay before allocating the buffers and/or transmitting the response. The throttling delay is determined based on a time elapsed since providing previously buffered data to the memory device and the size of the buffered data. The throttling delay is corrected based on the difference of the number of currently allocated buffers and a buffer reserve threshold.
