Abstract: A method includes, in a storage system that includes multiple memory devices, holding a definition of a given type of storage command. Multiple storage commands of the given type are executed in the memory devices, such that an actual current consumption of each storage command deviates from a nominal current waveform defined for the given type by no more than a predefined deviation, and such that each storage command is preceded by a random delay.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an interface and a processor. The interface is configured to communicate with a memory device. The processor is configured to send to the memory device, via the interface, a sequence of write commands that program multiple types of memory pages that incur respective different programming durations in the memory device, while inserting in the sequence suspension periods for permitting execution of storage commands that are not part of the sequence, such that at least some of the suspension periods are followed by write commands of types that do not have a shortest programming duration among the programming durations.

Abstract: A method for data storage includes defining an end-to-end mapping between data bits to be stored in a memory device that includes multiple memory cells and predefined programming levels. The data bits are mapped into mapped bits, so that the number of the mapped bits is smaller than the number of the data bits. The data bits are stored in the memory device by programming the mapped bits in the memory cells using a programming scheme that guarantees the end-to-end mapping. After storing the data bits, the data bits are read from the memory device in accordance with the end-to-end mapping.
