Abstract
A back up power embodied non-volatile memory device comprising a connection port, a power supply unit and a memory system. A host machine provides data and power to the connection port through an external bus. The memory system holds the data received from the connection port temporarily and transfers the data to a non- volatile memory unit inside the memory system. The power supply unit provides necessary power to complete the transfer of temporarily stored data inside the memory system to the non-volatile memory unit to become readable data when host power suddenly fails.

Distortion estimation and cancellation in memory devices

TL;DR: In this paper, the second voltage levels are affected by cross-coupling interference causing the second voltages to differ from the respective first voltages, and the data stored in the group of analog memory cells is reconstructed from the read second voltage level using the estimated crosscoupled coefficients.
