DYNAMIC BLOCK CATEGORIZATION TO IMPROVE RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE IN MEMORY SUB-SYSTEM
Abstract:
A set of threshold voltage distribution width measurements are obtained for a block in a memory device. An endurance estimate is determined for the block based on the threshold voltage distribution width measurements. The endurance estimate comprises an indication of an estimated number of program/erase cycles during which data can be reliably stored by the block. One or more parameters of the block are managed based on the endurance estimate.
