Abstract
Systems and apparatus are provided for power management of non-volatile storage (NVM) systems. A storage controller includes a command queue and a processor. The processor is configured to, in response to a data transfer rate from a host falling below a predetermined threshold and the command queue containing no command, enter a pseudo-idle power state by turning off input and output (IO) drivers of a memory interface coupling the storage controller and a non-volatile memory device and keeping on an internal memory of the storage controller.
