First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of operation of a data storage system comprising:
- providing a power monitor module for detecting a loss of host power;
interrupting a unit controller by the power monitor module;
configuring a memory controller by the unit controller; and
writing a non-volatile memory array for storing in-flight data and contents of a system control random access memory in a multi-level cell NAND flash device in response to detecting the loss of the host power.
