Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, devices, memory controllers, memory dies, memory devices, and machine-readable mediums that allow for efficient updating of software instructions of the memory die. In some examples, the controller of the memory device may cause the software instructions of one or more memory dies to be updated by causing the page buffers of the one or more memory dies to be loaded with updated software instructions and subsequently issuing a command to the memory die to update the software instructions from the page buffer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed, including determining whether to write dummy data to a first physical page of memory cells of a storage system, such as in response to a detected asynchronous power loss (APL) at the storage system, using a determined number of zeros in the first physical page.

Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, memory devices, and machine readable mediums for performing an erase page check. For example, in response to an unexpected (e.g., an asynchronous) shutdown, the memory device may have one or more cells that did not finish programming. The memory device may detect these cells and erase them or mark them for erasure.

Abstract: A system and method for a memory device for detecting, by a processing device, a failure exhibited by a set of cells of a memory device, estimating a severity of the failure, identifying, based on the severity of the failure, a failed subset of cells of the set of cells, and copying data from the failed subset of cells to a second set of cells of the memory device.

Abstract: A set of threshold voltage distribution width measurements are obtained for a block in a memory device. An endurance estimate is determined for the block based on the threshold voltage distribution width measurements. The endurance estimate comprises an indication of an estimated number of program/erase cycles during which data can be reliably stored by the block. One or more parameters of the block are managed based on the endurance estimate.

Abstract: Various embodiments provide for adjusting (or adapting) a program voltage step used to program a memory cell by a program algorithm after the program algorithm resumes from a suspension, where the program voltage step is adjusted (or adapted) based on one or more factors.

Abstract: A read operation is performed on a memory device in accordance with a pass-through voltage setting that defines a pass-through voltage applied to one or more cells of the memory device during read operations. A number of zero bits read from the memory device based on the read operation are counted and compared with a threshold value. Based on the number of zero bits exceeding the threshold value, the pass-through voltage is increased by adjusting the pass-through voltage setting.
