First Claim
Patent Images
1. A memory device comprising:
- a memory component configured to store data;
a buffer;
a processor, configured to;
receive a plurality of packets from a requesting component, wherein the plurality of packets corresponds to a plurality of data operations configured to access the memory component, and wherein the plurality of packets is stored in the buffer;
monitor an available capacity of the buffer; and
send a message to the requesting component when the available capacity is less than a threshold, wherein the message comprises instructions for the requesting component to decrease a transmission rate of the plurality of packets.

Abstract
A method may include transmitting, via a processor, a plurality of packets to a receiving component, such that the plurality of packets corresponds to a plurality of data operations configured to access a memory component. The plurality of packets is stored in a buffer of the receiving component upon receipt. The method may also include determining, via the processor, whether an available capacity of the buffer is less than a threshold decreasing a transmission rate of the plurality of packets when the available capacity is less than the threshold.
