Abstract

A method of controlling an ultra-deep power down (UDPD) mode in a memory device, can include: receiving a write command from a host via an interface; beginning a write operation on the memory device to execute the write command; reading an auto-UDPD (AUDPD) configuration bit from a status register; completing the write operation on the memory device; automatically entering the UDPD mode upon completion of the write operation in response to the AUDPD configuration bit being set; and entering a standby mode upon completion of the write operation in response to the AUDPD configuration bit being cleared.
