APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING MEMORY CELL DATA STATES
Abstract:
Apparatus might include an array of memory cells and a controller for access of the array of memory cells. The controller might be configured to cause the apparatus to apply a sense voltage level to a control gate of a memory cell of the array of memory cells, generate N determinations whether the memory cell is deemed to activate or deactivate while applying the sense voltage level, wherein N is an integer value greater than or equal to three, deem the memory cell to have a threshold voltage in a first range of threshold voltages lower than the sense voltage level in response to a majority of the N determinations indicating activation of the memory cell, and deem the memory cell to have a threshold voltage in a second range of threshold voltages higher than the sense voltage level in response to a majority of the N determinations indicating activation of the memory cell.
