Abstract: Control logic in a memory device causes a boost voltage to be applied one or more times to a plurality of unselected wordlines of a block of the memory array, the block comprising a plurality of sub-blocks, and the boost voltage to boost a channel potential of each of the plurality of sub-blocks by an amount each time the boost voltage is applied. The control logic further selectively discharges the amount of boost voltage from one or more of the plurality of sub-blocks after each time the boost voltage is applied according to a data pattern representing a sequence of bits to be programmed to respective memory cells of the plurality of sub-blocks. Additionally, the control logic causes a single programming pulse to be applied to one or more selected wordlines of the block to program the respective memory cells of the plurality of sub-blocks according to the data pattern.

Abstract: A system has been described that performs differential temperature compensation based on a differential between the temperature at time of programming and temperature at time of reading for a set of data. Differential temperature compensation is useful for bulk programming/reading (e.g., many pages of data) and/or programming/reading super pages of data (multiple pages residing on different memory die).

Abstract: Devices and techniques for read voltage calibration of a flash-based storage system based on host IO operations are disclosed. In an example, a memory device includes a NAND memory array having groups of multiple blocks of memory cells, and a memory controller to optimize voltage calibration for reads of the memory array. In an example, the optimization technique includes monitoring read operations occurring to a respective block, identifying a condition to trigger a read level calibration based on the read operations, and performing the read level calibration for the respective block or a memory component that includes the respective block. In a further example, the calibration is performed based on a threshold voltage to read the respective block, which may be considered when the threshold voltage to read the respective block is evaluated within a sampling operation performed by the read level calibration.
