Patent attributes
Memory device might include a controller configured to cause the memory device to determine whether the memory device is waiting to initiate a next phase of an access operation, and in response to determining that the memory device is waiting to initiate the next phase, determine whether there is sufficient available current budget to initiate the next phase in a selected operating mode in response to at least the priority token of the memory device, an expected peak current magnitude for the next phase in the selected operating mode, and additional expected peak current magnitudes for other memory devices. In response to determining that there is sufficient available current budget to initiate the next phase in the selected operating mode, the memory device might output the expected peak current magnitude for the next phase in the selected operating mode from the memory device.
