Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses, methods, and systems for drift compensation for codewords in memory. An embodiment includes a memory device having an array of memory cells, and circuitry to sense a codeword stored in the array, determine a threshold voltage value of each cell of the codeword, sort the threshold voltage values, determine a second derivative value of a cell metric for a number of the cells of the codeword based on the threshold voltage value of that respective cell, the threshold voltage value immediately preceding the threshold voltage value of that respective cell in the sorted values, and a value proportional to a total quantity of the cells of the codeword, determine the cell metric for which the determined second derivative value has a greatest value, input the determined cell metric to a Pearson detector, and determine originally programmed data of the codeword using the Pearson detector.

Abstract: A non-volatile storage apparatus includes non-volatile memory cells, word lines connected to the non-volatile memory cells, and a control circuit connected to the word lines and the memory cells. The word lines include data word lines and dummy word lines. Memory cells connected to data word lines are configured to store host data. Memory cells connected to dummy word lines do not store host data. The control circuit is configured to erase, program and read the memory cells. Errors from threshold voltage up-shifting in the memory cells connected to dummy word lines is prevented by adjusting the voltage applied to dummy word lines.

Abstract: Control logic in a memory device receives a request to perform a read operation to read data from a memory array of a memory device, the request comprising an indication of a segment of the memory array where the data is stored, initiates a failed byte count read operation on the segment of the memory array to determine a failed byte count, and reads metadata stored in a flag byte corresponding to the segment of the memory array concurrently with the failed byte count read operation. The control logic further configures one or more parameters associated with the read operation based on the failed byte count and at least a portion of the metadata read from the flag byte.
