US Patent 7251181 Techniques for storing accurate operating current values

Methods of manufacturing memory devices and memory modules comprising memory device. Specifically, respective operating current values may be measured and/or stored on a plurality of memory devices. More specifically, the operating current values may be stored in programmable elements, such as antifuses, on memory devices. The memory devices may be coupled to a substrate to form a memory module. A non-volatile memory device may be coupled to the substrate. The operating current values may be read from the programmable elements and stored in the non-volatile memory device. Once the memory module is incorporated into a system, the programmable elements or non-volatile memory may be accessed such that the system can be configured to optimally operate in accordance with the operating current values measured for each memory device in the system.
