    Abstract: A method includes identifying a read level offset assigned to a final bin in a scan order defined for a set of bins, identifying a set of bit error metric values by performing, using the read level offset, a scan operation with respect to a block of memory cells of the memory array, determining whether a final bit error metric value of the set of bit error metric values is greater than or equal to a threshold value, in response to determining that the final bit error metric value is greater than or equal to the threshold value, identifying a lowest bit error metric value of the set of bit error metric values, and selecting, from the set of bins, a bin having an assigned read level offset corresponding to the lowest bit error metric value.

    Abstract: A method includes, in response to detecting a power on event, selecting a block from a set of blocks, causing a first scan to be performed using a set of read level offsets to select, from a set of bins in accordance with a scan order, a first bin assigned with a first read level offset resulting in a first bit error metric value, in response to determining that the first bin is not an initial bin of the scan order, causing, using a second read level offset assigned to a second bin, a second scan to be performed to obtain a second bit error metric value, wherein the second bin immediately precedes the first bin in the scan order, and selecting, based on first bit error metric value and the second bit error metric value, an optimal bin from the set of bins.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for reference voltage adjustment for word line groups are described. In some examples, one or more components of a memory system may determine a duration that data has been stored to one or more memory cells. Based on the duration, a voltage value of one or more reference voltages may be adjusted accordingly. For example, a voltage value of one or more reference voltages may be adjusted based on the duration. Moreover, the reference voltage values may be adjusted differently in response to the memory cells having stored data for a relatively longer duration, as opposed to memory cells that have stored data for a relatively shorter duration. The adjusted reference voltages may be used during a subsequent read operation. The voltage value of the one or more reference voltages may be adjusted on a word-line group by word-line group basis.
