Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to a memory device with a fast write mode to mitigate power loss. In some implementations, the memory device may detect a condition associated with power supplied to the memory device. The memory device may detect one or more pending write operations to be performed to cause data to be written to memory cells of the memory device. The memory device may switch from a first voltage pattern, previously used by the memory device to write data to one or more memory cells of the memory device, to a second voltage pattern based on detecting the condition and based on detecting the one or more pending write operations. The memory device may perform at least one write operation, of the one or more pending write operations, using the second voltage pattern.

Abstract: A first artificial neural network (ANN) model implemented on a memory device can be executed on first data from an imaging device corresponding to a first image. A second ANN model implemented on the memory device can be executed on second data from the imaging device corresponding to a second, subsequent image. Whether an accuracy value of results yielded from the execution of the second ANN model on the second data is less than a threshold accuracy value can be determined by the memory device. Responsive to determining that the accuracy value is less than the threshold accuracy value, the first ANN model can be executed on third data from the imaging device corresponding to a third image subsequent to the second image. Such selection of ANN models can reduce excess power consumption of a memory device on which the ANN models are implemented.

Abstract: Methods and devices and systems related to a computing device for providing a route with augmented reality (AR) are described. An example method can include receiving, at a computing device, a trigger associated with a first location of the computing device, tracking movement of the computing device relative to the first location, and providing a route back to the first location from a second location reached during the tracked movement. The route can include displayed AR.

Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus are provided for nitride lattice support structures and double side capacitors in vertical three-dimensional (3D) memory. An example method includes a method for forming a nitride lattice support structures for an array of vertically stacked memory cells having access devices and storage nodes. The method includes depositing alternating layers of a channel material and a first sacrificial material in repeating iterations to form a vertical stack on a substrate. The vertical stack can be patterned to form a plurality of elongated vertical columns separated by a plurality of first vertical opening. A second sacrificial material can be deposited to fill the first vertical openings and cover the vertical stack. A plurality of vertical openings and lateral recesses can be formed. A nitride material can be deposited in the vertical openings and lateral recesses to form a plurality of nitride lattice support structures.

Abstract: An apparatus can comprise a memory array comprising a plurality of strings of memory cells. A first string of the plurality of strings can comprises: a first group of memory cells coupled to a first group of access lines and corresponding to a first erase block; and a second group of memory cells coupled to a second group of access lines and corresponding to a second erase block. A controller is coupled to the memory array and configured to, in order to selectively erase the second erase block independently of the first erase block: apply a voltage having a first value to a sense line coupled to the plurality of strings; apply a voltage having a second value less than the first value to the first group of access lines; and apply a voltage having a third value less than the second value to the second group of access lines.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for multiple transistor architecture for three-dimensional memory arrays are described. A memory device may include conductive pillars coupled with an access line using two transistors positioned between the conductive pillar and the access line. As part of an access operation for a memory cell coupled with the conductive pillar, the memory device may be configured to bias the access line to a first voltage and activate the two transistors using a second voltage to couple the conductive pillar with the access line. Additionally, the memory device may be configured to bias a gate of a first transistor and a gate of a second transistor coupling an unselected conductive pillar with the access line to a third and fourth voltage, respectively, which may deactivate at least one of the first or second transistor during the access operation and isolate the unselected conductive pillar from the access line.

Abstract: Read calibration by sector of memory can include reading a page of memory, having more than one sector, with a read level, such as a default read level. In response to an error, such as an uncorrectable error correction code read result, the respective read level can be calibrated for each sector to yield a respective calibrated read level per sector. The page of memory can be read with the respective calibrated read level per sector. The calibrated read levels can be stored.
