Abstract: In some implementations, a memory device may detect a read command associated with reading data stored by the memory device. The memory device may determine whether the read command is from a host device in communication with the memory device. The memory device may select, based on whether the read command is from the host device, one of a first voltage pattern or a second voltage pattern to be applied to memory cells of the memory device to execute the read command, wherein the first voltage pattern is selected if the read command is from the host device and the second voltage pattern is selected if the read command is not from the host device, wherein the second voltage pattern is different from the first voltage pattern. The memory device may execute the read command using a selected one of the first voltage pattern or the second voltage pattern.

Abstract: Control logic in a memory device initiates a program operation on a memory array, the program operation comprising a seeding phase. During the seeding phase, the control logic causes a seeding voltage to be applied to a string of memory cells in a data block of the memory array during the seeding phase of the program operation and causes a first positive voltage to be applied to a first plurality of word lines of the data block during the seeding phase, wherein each of the first plurality of word lines is coupled to a corresponding memory cell of a first plurality of memory cells in the string of memory cells, the first plurality of word lines comprising a selected word line associated with the program operation. The control logic further causes a second positive voltage to be applied to one or more second word lines coupled to one or more second memory cells on a source-side of the first plurality of memory cells in the string of memory cells during the seeding phase, wherein the second positive voltage is less than the first positive voltage.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide for performing a memory operation, such as a memory block compaction operation or block folding or refresh operation, based on a temperature associated with a memory block of a memory device. For instance, some embodiments provide for techniques that can cause performance of a block compaction operation on a memory block at a temperature that is at least at or higher than a predetermined temperature value. Additionally, some embodiments provide for techniques that can cause performance of a block folding/refresh operation, at a temperature that is at or higher than the predetermined temperature value, on one or more blocks on which data was written at a temperature lower than the predetermined temperature value.

Abstract: A memory device includes unselected sub-block, which includes bit line; drain select (SGD) transistor coupled with bit line; a source voltage line; source select (SGS) transistor coupled with source voltage; and wordlines coupled with gates of string of cells, which have channel coupled between the SGS/SGD transistors. Control logic coupled with unselected sub-block is to: cause the SGD/SGS transistors to turn on while ramping the wordlines from a ground voltage to a pass voltage associated with unselected wordlines in preparation for read operation; cause, while ramping the wordlines, the channel to be pre-charged by ramping voltages on the bit line and the source voltage line to a target voltage that is greater than a source read voltage level; and in response to wordlines reaching the pass voltage, causing the SGD and SGS transistors to be turned off, to leave the channel pre-charged to the target voltage during the read operation.
