A communication interface, coupling a controller device to one or more memory devices, provides a high-voltage reset interface. The high-voltage reset interface provides a high-voltage signal to reset the one or more memory devices. The high-voltage reset interface is implemented using a single interconnect line. The reset voltage signal is greater than a maximum voltage representing a high logic value. The communication interface may also include a bi-directional data and address interface that is used to send address, data, and commands between the controller device and the one or more memory devices. A method of transferring information between the controller device and the one or more non-volatile memory devices includes resetting the one or more non-volatile memory devices by asserting a high-voltage signal on the high-voltage reset interface and sending a command from the controller device to the one or more non-volatile memory devices via the data and address interface.
