APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR IMPROVED DATA RESTORE IN A MEMORY SYSTEM

A memory module interfaces with a host system as a Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM). The memory module includes a volatile memory and a nonvolatile memory, and provides a DIMM module interface to the volatile memory. A peripheral I/O bus interfaces to the nonvolatile memory, the peripheral I/O bus i...

Zusammenfassung:A memory module interfaces with a host system as a Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM). The memory module includes a volatile memory and a nonvolatile memory, and provides a DIMM module interface to the volatile memory. A peripheral I/O bus interfaces to the nonvolatile memory, the peripheral I/O bus interface also interfaces to control logic of the memory module to initiate data backup from the volatile to the nonvolatile memory.
