摘要: A semiconductor memory device includes a memory cell array having memory strings that include memory cells and first and second selection transistors. During a read operation, a controller applies a first voltage higher than ground to a source line, and a second voltage to a first and second selection gate lines that are connected to a selected memory string. The second voltage is also applied to the first selection gate lines connected to non-selected memory strings during a first period of the read operation. A third voltage higher than ground and lower than the second voltage is applied to the first selection gate lines connected to non-selected memory strings during a second period of the read operation subsequent to the first period.

摘要: An integrated circuit device having a mechanism to check calibration of memory cells configured to perform operations of multiplication and accumulation. The integrated circuit device programs, in a first mode, threshold voltages of first memory cells in a memory cell array to store weight data, and programs, in a second mode, threshold voltages of second memory cells in the memory cell array to store a first result of applying an operation of multiplication and accumulation to a sample input and the weight data. During a calibration check, the integrated circuit device performs the operation using the first memory cells to obtain a second result, and compares the first result, retrieved from the second memory cells, and the second result to determine whether calibration of output current characteristics of the first memory cells programmed in the first mode is corrupted.

摘要: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include an adaptive pre-read manager for controlling pre-reads of the memory device. The adaptive pre-read manager receives a first set of data bits for programming to memory. The adaptive pre-read manager performing a first pass of programming including a first subset of data bits from the set of data bits. The adaptive pre-read manager compares a set of threshold operating differences to a set of differences between multiple operating conditions during the first pass of programming and current operating conditions. The adaptive pre-read manager performs an internal pre-read of the programmed first subset of data bits. The adaptive pre-read manager performs a second pass of programming using the internal pre-read and a second subset of data bits from the first set of data bits.
