Patent attributes
A peak power management (PPM) system is provided for managing peak power operations between two or more NAND memory dies. The PPM system includes a PPM circuit on each NAND memory die. Each PPM circuit includes a first pull-up driver electrically connected to a first power source and a first end of a PPM resistor; a second pull-up driver electrically connected to a second power source and a second end of the PPM resistor; a pull-down driver electrically connected to the second end of the PPM resistor; and a PPM contact pad connected to the second end of the PPM resistor. The PPM contact pads of the two or more NAND memory dies are electrically connected with each other with a common electric potential. The PPM system is configured to manage peak power operations according to the electric potential of the PPM contact pads.
