    Abstract: An example method for critical timing driven adjustable voltage frequency scaling can include performing sensing operations on a system on chip (SoC) at a respective plurality of time windows each associated with a particular data value, comparing at least two of the particular data values associated with at least two respective time windows of the plurality of time windows, in response to the at least two of the particular data values being a same data value, determining that a clock margin is above a threshold clock margin, and determining that a clock margin is below a threshold clock margin. In some instance, in response to determining that the clock margin is above the threshold clock margin, a clocking of the SoC can be adjusted, a voltage of at least one operation of the SoC can be adjusted, and/or a clocking frequency of at least one operation of the SoC, among other possibilities.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data alignment for memory are described. A memory device may implement individual time adjustments to align portions of a multilevel signal modulated by a modulation scheme with three levels. In some cases, signal paths for generating and transmitting the portions of the multilevel signal may reference a clock signal, and adjustable delay circuits may apply individual delays to the clock signal received at each signal path. For example, a first adjustable delay circuit may apply a first time adjustment to the clock signal received at a first signal path for generating a first portion. And, a second adjustable delay circuit may apply a second time adjustment to the clock signal received at a second signal path for generating a second portion. Applying the time adjustments to the signal paths may align the portions of the multilevel signal in time, compared to the clock signal.

    Abstract: Processing can occur in registers of a memory sub-system. A first plurality of registers coupled to the plurality of sense amplifiers can store the first plurality of bits received from the plurality of sense amplifiers. Processing circuitry coupled to the first plurality of registers can receive the first plurality of bits from the first plurality of registers and can perform an operation on the first plurality of bits to generate result bits. A second plurality of registers coupled to the processing circuitry and the plurality of registers can store the result bits received from the processing circuitry and can provide the result bits to a plurality of data input/output (I/O) lines prior to storing a second plurality of bits.

    Abstract: A memory sub-system configured to perform multiplication and accumulation operations using truncated outputs. For example, voltages can be applied, according to a bit slice having a slice weight in an input, to memory cells storing weights. A resolution control can be applied, according to the slice weight, to an analog to digital converter coupled to the line having a current resulting from the memory cells responsive to the voltages. The analog to digital converter can measure at least one first bit of a quantity representative of a magnitude of the current in the line to provide a truncated output, skipping measuring of at least one second bit of the quantity according to the resolution control. Summing truncated outputs resulting from the bit slices from the input can provide an approximated result of the sum of elements in the input weighted by the weights.

    Abstract: A read operation is performed on a set of memory cells addressable by a first wordline (WL), wherein the set of memory cells is comprised by an open translation unit (TU_ of memory cells of a memory device. Respective threshold voltage offset bins for each WL of a second plurality of WLs coupled to respective sets of memory cells comprised by the open TU are determined based on a threshold voltage offset bin associated with the first WL. Respective default threshold voltages for each WL of the first plurality of WLs are updated based on the respective threshold voltage offset bins for each WL of the second plurality of WLs.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit device may include a transmission driver and an equalizer. The transmission driver may be configured to, in response to a transmission control data, transmit an output signal to an outside through a signal line in a transmission operation that outputs the output signal to the outside, and provide termination resistance in a reception operation that receives an input signal from the outside through the signal line. The equalizer may be configured to, in response to an equalizer control data, amplify high-frequency components of the output signal in the transmission operation, and to provide termination resistance in the reception operation.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for skipping pages for weak wordlines of a memory device during pre-programming are described. A memory device may be configured to operate in a first mode involving skipping one or more pages (e.g., a lower page (LP)) associated with a set of wordlines. In some examples, a testing system may determine the set of wordlines (e.g., weak wordlines) for which to skip pages according to performance degradation for the wordlines in response to applying a threshold temperature to a test memory device. In the first mode, the memory device may store (e.g., pre-program) data in a subset of pages distinct from the skipped pages. The memory device may switch to a second mode in response to a trigger condition. In the second mode, the memory device may use each page associated with the wordlines and may refrain from skipping the one or more pages.
