摘要: Apparatuses, methods, and other embodiments associated with group based read reference voltage management in flash memory are described. According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes an interval logic configured to create a finite set of timer intervals, a partition logic configured to selectively assign a Vref value to a set of flash memory cells as a function of a given timer interval during which the set of flash memory cells are programmed, and an adaptation logic configured to selectively adapt a given Vref value associated with a flash memory cell upon determining that the flash memory cell has been read.

摘要: Method of programming nonvolatile memory devices are provided in which data is programmed into a first plurality of memory cells of the nonvolatile memory device. At the same time associated programming confirmation information is programmed into at least one second memory cell of the nonvolatile memory device. Then, a determination is made as to whether the data was correctly programmed into the first plurality of memory cells based on an evaluation of (1) the threshold voltage distributions of at least some of the first plurality of memory cells and (2) the threshold voltage distribution of the at least one second memory cell. Methods of resuming a data programming operation after an interruption such as a loss of power are also provided.
