Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G  H

Claim 17:
18. An apparatus, comprising:
a radio frequency (RF) signal generation device;
a memory component; and
a processor resident on the RF signal generation device and coupled to the memory component, wherein the processor is configured to:
cause signaling generated by the RF signal generation device to be applied to a memory device external to the apparatus, the signaling to provide power to logic circuitry and a memory resource associated with the memory device such that the logic circuitry and the memory resource associated with the memory device draw power from the signaling; and
cause information corresponding to a health of the memory device or a functional state of the memory device, or both, to be retrieved from the memory resource of the memory device over-the-air; and

wherein the processor is configured to cause the signaling generated by the RF signal generation device to be applied to the memory device external to the apparatus, and cause information corresponding to the health of the memory device or the functional state of the memory device, or both, to be retrieved from the memory resource after the memory device has experienced a fault condition.
