Abstract: A program circuit may two-dimensionally program data into cells by applying different selected bit line or channel voltages to different bit lines or channels located in different bit line zones of a block during a program operation. The block may be further separated or divided into word line zones. The program circuit may adjust the different bit line or channel voltages as it programs in different word line zones of the block. In accordance with the two-dimensional programming, the program circuit may perform single-pulse program-only SLC program operations.

Abstract: A high-performance write operation to program data to a group of non-volatile memory cells may be completed in response to applying a single programming pulse to the group. Programming of the cells may be verified (and/or corrected) after completion of the command. Verifying programming of the cells may comprise identifying under-programmed cells, and applying an additional programming pulse to the identified cells. The under-programmed cells may comprise cells within an under-program range below a target level. The under-program range may be determined based on a threshold voltage distribution of the cells in response to applying the single programming pulse.

Abstract: A non-volatile memory system and corresponding method of operation are provided. The system includes non-volatile memory cells, each retaining a threshold voltage within a threshold window. The non-volatile memory cells include multi-bit cells each configured to store a plurality of bits of data with the threshold window partitioned into bands each having a band width. The bands include a lowest band denoting an erased state and increasing bands. A control circuit programs a first set of the data into the multi-bit cells in a single-bit mode using first target states being one of the erased state and a tight intermediate state having a distribution of the threshold voltage no wider than the band width of one of the increasing bands. The control circuit also programs a second set of the data into the multi-bit cells in a multi-bit mode with each of the multi-bit cells storing the plurality of bits.

Abstract: Technology is described herein for operating non-volatile storage. In one embodiment, the memory system tracks which adjustments to default values for hard bit read reference voltages are most frequently successful to decode data in non-volatile memory cells. In response to a process that uses only hard bits failing to successfully decode data in a group of the non-volatile memory cells, the memory system attempts to decode the data in the group of non-volatile memory cells using dynamic hard bit read reference voltages and dynamic soft bit read reference voltages that correspond to only a subset of the most frequently successful adjustments to the default values for the hard bit read reference voltages. By only using a subset of the most frequently successful adjustments to the default values for the hard bit read reference voltages time and power is saved.

Abstract: A storage system includes a controller that is configured to make host data inaccessible. To do so, the controller may control power control circuitry to supply pulses to storage locations storing host data. The pulses may include flash write pulses but no erase pulses, or a combination of flash write pulses and erase pulses. If erase pulses are supplied, the number of the erase pulses may be less than the number supplied for performance of a default erase operation.
