    摘要: To control a read sequence of a nonvolatile memory device, a plurality of read sequences are set and the read sequences respectively correspond to operating conditions different from each other. The read sequences are performed selectively based on sequence selection rates respectively corresponding to the read sequences. Read latencies of the respective read sequences are monitored and the sequence selection rates are adjusted based on monitoring results of the read latencies.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and computer readable media for early detection of potential flash failures using an adaptive system level algorithm based on NAND program verify are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method for early detection of potential flash failures using an adaptive system level algorithm based on NAND program verify includes performing a program verify operation after a write to a non-volatile memory, where the program verify mechanism reports a pass or fail based on an existing measurement threshold value, and dynamically adjusting the measurement threshold value used by subsequent program verify operations based on the results of previous program verify operations.

    摘要: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for determining memory cell bias information for use in memory operations. One or more memory die are selected from a group of memory die, and one or more memory blocks selected from the selected one or more memory die. A group of cells within the selected memory blocks are programmed and cycled. Bias values are generated based on comparing one or more program levels associated with respective wordlines with predetermined programming levels. The bias values are stored lookup table that is configured to be accessible at runtime by a memory controller for retrieval of the bias value during a memory operation.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device with adjusted threshold is provided. In a semiconductor device including a semiconductor, a source or drain electrode electrically connected to the semiconductor, a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode between which the semiconductor is provided, a charge trap layer provided between the first gate electrode and the semiconductor, and a gate insulating layer provided between the second gate electrode and the semiconductor, a threshold is increased by trapping electrons in the charge trap layer by keeping a potential of the first gate electrode at a potential higher than a potential of the source or drain electrode for 1 second or more while heating. After the threshold adjustment process, the first gate electrode is removed or insulated from other circuits. Alternatively, a resistor may be provided between the first gate electrode and other circuits.
