Abstract

A data processing system includes a host device; and a data storage device suitable for detecting a voltage drop state in the voltage received from the host device, changing a first key received from the host device to a second key when detecting the voltage drop state, generating a cyclical redundancy check (CRC) data based on the second key, and transmitting the generated CRC data to the host device.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A data processing system comprising:
a host device; and
a data storage device suitable for:
detecting a voltage drop state in a voltage received from the host device, changing a first key received from the host device to a second key when detecting the voltage drop state, generating a cyclical redundancy check (CRC) data based on the second key, and transmitting the generated CRC data to the host device.

2. The data processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the host device initializes the data storage device based on the CRC data.

3. The data processing system according to claim 2 , wherein the host device provides an initialization command to the data storage device for the initialization of the data storage device.

4. The data processing system according to claim 2 , wherein the host device retransmits to the data storage device, after the data storage device is initialized, a request corresponding to an uncompleted task for which the host device did not receive a completion notice from the data storage device.

5. The data processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the data storage device comprises:
a control unit;
a voltage detector suitable for detecting the voltage drop state when the voltage received form the host is less than a reference value, generating a voltage drop signal when the voltage drop state is detected, and transmitting the voltage drop signal to the control unit; and
a CRC block suitable for changing the first key to the second key according to the voltage drop signal under the control of the control unit.

6. The data processing system according to claim 5 , wherein the CRC block further generates the CRC data for data corresponding to an uncompleted task at the time of the voltage drop state.

7. The data processing system according to claim 1 , further comprising a task queue for storing a task which is generated by the data storage device based on a request received from the host device.

8. The data processing system according to claim 7 , wherein the task may be a work list, a command, or the like, to be performed by the data storage device or the control unit to process the request transmitted from the host device.

9. The data processing system according to claim 7 , wherein the data storage device transmits a response to the host device when the task is completed.

10. The data processing system according to claim 7 , wherein when a voltage drop state is notified to the host device from the data storage device, the host device performs a recovery operation for any uncompleted task generated by the data storage device in response to a request received from the host device.

11. A data processing system comprising:
a data storage device; and
a host device having a predetermined first key and suitable for transmitting a request and data to the data storage device,
the data storage device comprising:
a voltage detector suitable for detecting a voltage drop state of the data storage device and generating a voltage drop signal when the voltage drop state is detected; and
a CRC block suitable for generating CRC data for the data by using the first key, and changing the first key to a second key according to the voltage drop signal.

12. The data processing system according to claim 11 ,
wherein the host device provides the data storage device with a state check command for checking whether the request is processed, and
wherein the CRC block generates the CRC data for the data by using the second key in response to the state check command, and transmits the CRC data to the host device.

13. The data processing system according to claim 12 , wherein the host device performs a recovery operation to the data storage device in response to the CRC data generated on the basis of the second key.

14. The data processing system according to claim 13 , wherein the host device initializes the data storage device while performing the recovery process.

15. The data processing system according to claim 14 , wherein the host device provides an initialization command to the data storage device for the initialization of the data storage device.

16. The data processing system according to claim 13 , wherein the host device retransmits, after the data storage device is initialized, a request corresponding to an uncompleted task of the data storage device.

17. The data processing system according to claim 11 , wherein the data storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device as a storage medium.
