    Abstract: A method includes, in a memory device, receiving a command that specifies a peak power consumption that is not to be exceeded by the memory device. A memory of the memory device is configured in accordance with the peak power consumption specified in the command. A data storage operation in the configured memory is performed, while complying with the specified peak power consumption.

    Abstract: A method includes, in a host that stores data in a storage device, detecting an event that is indicative, statistically and not deterministically, of an imminent power shutdown in the host. A notification is sent to the storage device responsively to the detected event, so as to cause the storage device to initiate preparatory action for the imminent power shutdown.

    Abstract: A method for data storage includes storing data in a group of analog memory cells by writing respective storage values into the memory cells in the group. One or more of the memory cells in the group are read using a first readout operation that senses the memory cells with a first sense time. At least one of the memory cells in the group is read using a second readout operation that senses the memory cells with a second sense time, longer than the first sense time. The data stored in the group of memory cells is reconstructed based on readout results of the first and second readout operations.

    Abstract translation: 用于数据存储的方法包括通过将相应的存储值写入组中的存储器单元来将数据存储在一组模拟存储器单元中。 使用以第一感测时间感测存储器单元的第一读出操作读取组中的一个或多个存储器单元。 使用第二读出操作来读取组中的至少一个存储器单元,该第二读出操作以比第一感测时间长的第二感测时间感测存储器单元。 基于第一和第二读出操作的读出结果重建存储在存储单元组中的数据。

    Abstract: A method includes defining a normal voltage configuration for application to word lines (WLs) and Bit lines (BLs) of a memory block, and a an abnormal voltage configuration, different from the normal voltage configuration, for application to the WLs and the BLs of the memory block when a word-line-to-word-line (WL-WL) short-circuit is found between at least two of the WLs in the memory block. If no WL-WL short-circuit is found in the memory block, a data storage operation is performed in the memory block by applying the normal voltage configuration. If a WL-WL short-circuit is found in the memory block, the data storage operation is performed in the memory block by applying the abnormal voltage configuration.
