    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for dynamic read voltage techniques are described. In some examples, a memory device may include one or more partitions made up of multiple disjoint subsets of memory arrays. The memory device may receive a read command to read the one or more partitions and enter a drift determination phase. During the drift determination phase, the memory device may concurrently apply a respective voltage of a set of voltages to each disjoint subset and determine a quantity of memory cells in each disjoint subset that have a threshold voltage below the applied voltage. Based on a comparison between the determined quantity of memory cells and a predetermined quantity of memory cells, the memory device may select a voltage from the set of voltages and utilize the selected voltage to read the one or more partitions.

    摘要: Systems, methods and apparatus to program memory cells to an intermediate state. A first voltage pulse is applied in a first polarity across each respective memory cell among the memory cells to move its threshold voltage in the first polarity to a first voltage region representative of a first value. A second voltage pulse is then applied in a second polarity to further move its threshold voltage in the first polarity to a second voltage region representative of a second value and the intermediate state. A magnitude of the second voltage pulse applied for the memory cells is controlled by increasing the magnitude in increments until the memory cells are sensed to be conductive. Optionally, prior to the first voltage pulse, a third voltage pulse is applied in the second polarity to cancel or reduce a drift in threshold voltages of the respective memory cell.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for restoring memory cell threshold voltages are described. A memory device may perform a write operation on a memory cell during which a logic state is stored at the memory cell. Upon detecting satisfaction of a condition, the memory device may perform a read refresh operation on the memory cell during which the threshold voltage of the memory cell may be modified. In some cases, the duration of the read refresh operation may be longer than the duration of a read operation performed by the memory device on the memory cell or on a different memory cell.

    摘要: Provided is a memory system including a plurality of memory submodules and a controller. Each submodule comprises a plurality of memory channels, each channel having a parity bit and a redundant array of independent devices (RAID) parity channel. The controller is configured to receive a block of data for storage in the plurality of memory submodules and determine whether a level of data traffic demand for a first of the plurality of submodules is high or low. When the data traffic demand is low, (i) writing a portion of the block of data in the first of the plurality of submodules and (ii) concurrently updating the parity bit and the RAID parity channel associated with the block of data. When the data traffic demand is high, (i) only writing the portion of the block of data in the first of the plurality of submodules and (ii) deferring updating of the parity bits and the RAID parity channel associated with the block of data.

    摘要: Provided is a memory system comprising a plurality of memory channels each having a parity bit, a redundant array of independent devices (RAID) parity channel, and a controller of the memory system. The controller is configured to receive a block of data for storage in the memory channels and determine at least one of (i) when a data traffic demand on the memory channels is high and (ii) when a data traffic demand on the memory channels is low. Upon determining the data traffic demand is low, writing the block of data for storage in the memory channels and concurrently updating the parity bits and the RAID parity channel for the stored block of data. Upon determining the data traffic demand is high, only writing the data for storage in the memory channels.
