Abstract: Systems and/or methods that facilitate discharging bit lines (BL) associated with memory arrays in nonvolatile memory at a controlled rate are presented. A discharge component facilitates discharging the BL at a desired rate thus preventing the “hot switching” phenomenon from occurring within a y-decoder component(s) associated with the nonvolatile memory. The discharge component can be comprised of, in part, a discharge transistor component that controls the rate of BL discharge wherein the gate voltage of the discharge transistor component can be controlled by a discharge controller component. The rate of BL discharge can be determined by the size of discharge transistor component used in the design, the strength and/or size of the y-decoder component, the number of erase errors that occur for a particular memory device, and/or other factors in order to facilitate preventing hot switching from occurring.

Abstract: Systems and methodologies are provided herein for increasing operation speed uniformity in a flash memory device. Due to the characteristics of a typical flash memory array, memory cells in a memory array may experience distributed substrate resistance that increases as the distance of the memory cell from an edge of the memory array increases. This difference in distributed substrate resistance can vary voltages supplied to different memory cells in the memory array depending on their location, which can in turn cause non-uniformity in the speed of high voltage operations on the memory array such as programming. The systems and methodologies provided herein reduce this non-uniformity in operation speed by providing compensated voltage levels to memory cells in a memory array based at least in part on the location of each respective memory cell. For example, a compensated operation voltage can be provided that is higher near the center of the memory array and lower near an edge of the memory array, thereby lessening the effect of distributed substrate resistance and providing increased operation speed uniformity throughout the memory array.

Abstract: A system providing three-dimensional visual navigation for a mobile unit includes a location calculation unit for calculating an instantaneous position of the mobile unit, a viewpoint control unit for determining a viewing frustum from the instantaneous position, a scenegraph manager in communication with at least one geo-database to obtain geographic object data associated with the viewing frustum and generating a scenegraph organizing the geographic object data, and a scenegraph renderer which graphically renders the scenegraph in real time. To enhance depiction, a method for blending images of different resolutions in the scenegraph reduces abrupt changes as the mobile unit moves relative to the depicted geographic objects. Data structures for storage and run-time access of information regarding the geographic object data permit on-demand loading of the data based on the viewing frustum and allow the navigational system to dynamically load, on-demand, only those objects that are visible to the user.
