Abstract: A method for programming a non-volatile memory including a plurality of blocks, each block including a plurality of sections, each section including at least one page, and each page including a plurality of memory cells. The method includes checking a current section of the plurality of sections against a damaged section table to determine whether the current section is damaged. The damaged section table records information about whether a section in the memory is good or damaged. The method further includes using the current section for programming if the current section is not damaged.

Abstract: A method for managing memory includes setting a state of a first memory cell to a first state representing a first data and setting a state of a second memory cell to a second state representing the first data. If the state of the second memory cell has changed to a third state representing a second data different from the first data, the method also includes changing the state of the second memory cell back to the second state.

Abstract: A memory device includes an array of programmable resistance memory cells, a differential amplifier coupled to the array, and current circuitry providing a program current to the bit line. The differential amplifier senses a voltage difference between a first voltage on a bit line coupled to a memory cell and a reference voltage, and provides a feedback signal in response to the voltage difference. Control circuitry is coupled to the array and the differential amplifier, and configured to execute a program operation to change the memory cell in a first resistance state to a second resistance state, including selecting a voltage level for the reference voltage which correlates with the second resistance state, turning on the current circuitry to apply a program pulse of program current to the memory cell, and enabling the differential amplifier, where the current circuitry turns off the program current in response to the feedback signal.
