Patent attributes
Technology is disclosed herein for handling of mixed random read and sequential read command sequences. Plane read commands are formed from one or more sequential read commands. A sequential read command may be split into multiple plane read commands at plane boundaries. The plane read commands are submitted to the respective planes as asynchronous independent plane read commands. Random read commands may be submitted to the planes as asynchronous independent plane read (AIPR) commands on par with the split sequential read commands. Therefore, AIPR may be used for both sequential read commands and random read commands. Submitting a split sequential read command to one or more planes while one or more other planes are performing a random read command can significantly improve performance.
