12 results about "Hard error" patented technology

Hard error. A hard error is an issue that occurs due to malfunctioning hardware, specifically data transmission and storage devices. A hard error is usually the result of a memory chip failure in the affected hardware. Common causes are exposure to an ESD and pushing memory beyond its capabilities.

Sector sliding in shingled magnetic recording hard disk drive

Controlling a shingled magnetic recording (SMR) hard drive involves attempting a sequential write to a first sector of a sequence of sectors and, responsive to encountering a write inhibit boundary corresponding to the first sector, continuing the write to the next available sector in the sequence of sectors for the write. Thus, instead of that write inhibit triggering a hard error, the data is adaptively written to the next down-track physical sector possible, i.e., “sliding” to the next sector. This does not require an additional disk revolution thus there is negligible performance penalty. The write may be continued to the next track if necessary, and may continue through the entire zone, to maintain all the data in sequential form for performance and large block protection purposes.

Method for estimating in-orbit failure probability of single-particle hard error of wide bandgap semiconductor device

The invention discloses an on-orbit failure probability estimation method for a single-particle hard error of a wide bandgap semiconductor device, and aims to support on-orbit prediction of the single-particle hard error failure probability of the wide bandgap semiconductor device. Wide bandgap semiconductor devices such as silicon carbide (SiC), gallium nitride (GaN) and the like are easy to generate hard errors such as single-particle burnout and single-particle gate-through under the radiation of high-energy particles, and the risk of the hard errors in aerospace application needs to be comprehensively predicted and evaluated. Therefore, the invention provides a method for estimating the in-orbit failure probability of the single-particle hard error of the wide bandgap semiconductor device, which considers the influence of a failure section angle and particle distribution characteristics in different orbit environments, and provides data support for model selection.

Limiting effects of uncorrected hard failures in least recently used vector

A computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for limiting the effects of uncorrected hard errors. A soft error is detected in the least recently used (LRU) vector. A group at the tier of the LRU vector subject to the error is then recorded. A counter tracking the number of soft errors involving the group at the tier of the LRU vector subject to the soft error is updated (e.g., increased by a value of 1). If the value of the counter exceeds a threshold value, then such a soft error is deemed to be treated as a hard error. In such a situation, an error correction process is implemented for only the affected location of the LRU vector subject to the soft error. The target way is then set to include the most recently used data item in the non-errant associated groups of the LRU vector.

Reliability boosting of a storage device for an in-memory garbage collection operation

Techniques to boost reliability of a storage device may include performing an in-memory garbage collection operation to transfer data from a source memory block to a target memory block inside a memory device without using a memory controller. The in-memory garbage collection operation may cause soft errors in the source memory block to be converted into hard errors in the target memory block. In response to a test read of the target memory block, it may be determined that the target memory block has a failed bit count (FBC) greater than a FBC threshold by taking into account a degradation of a soft error decoder correction capability caused by the hard errors from the in-memory garbage collection operation. An external garbage collection operation may be performed on the target memory block to reclaim the target memory block.
