Content
FIG. 4B is a schematic block diagram illustrating an alternate embodiment 401 of a bank interleave controller 344 in the solid-state storage controller 104 in accordance with the present invention. The components 210, 212, 340, 346, 348, 350, 402-430 depicted in the embodiment shown in FIG. 4B are substantially similar to the bank interleave apparatus 400 described in relation to FIG. 4A except that each bank 214 includes a single queue 432a-n and the read commands, write commands, erase commands, management commands, etc. for a bank (e.g. Bank-0 214a) are directed to a single queue 432a for the bank 214a. The queues 432, in one embodiment, are FIFO. In another embodiment, the queues 432 can have commands pulled from the queues 432 in an order other than the order they were stored. In another alternate embodiment (not shown), the read agent 402, write agent 404, erase agent 406, and management agent 408 may be combined into a single agent assigning commands to the appropriate queues 432a-n.
