Abstract

Systems and methods for determining memory module power requirements in a memory system. Embodiments include a memory system with a physical memory and a memory controller. The physical memory includes a plurality of memory devices. The memory controller is in communication with the physical memory and has a logical memory for storing power usage characteristics associated with the physical memory. The power usage characteristics are generated in response to a current operating environment of the memory system.
