摘要: An example method for determining likelihood of erroneous data bits stored in memory cells may include sensing a first plurality of memory cells based on a first sense thresholds. Responsive to sensing the first plurality of cells, a first set of probabilistic information may be associated with the first plurality of memory cells. A second plurality of memory cells may be sensed based on a second sense threshold. Responsive to sensing the second plurality of memory cells, a second set of probabilistic information may be associated with the second plurality of memory cells. An error correction operation may be performed on the first and second pluralities of memory cells based, at least in part, on the first and second values.

摘要: Methods include applying a first voltage to channel regions of a plurality of memory cells; applying a lower second voltage to each access line of a plurality of access lines coupled to the memory cells other than a first set of access lines; applying a lower third voltage to the first set of access lines while applying the first voltage and the second voltage; determining a desired voltage level of the third voltage for a subsequent set of access lines; and applying the third voltage to the subsequent set of access lines while applying the first voltage and while applying the second voltage to each access line of the plurality of access lines other than the subsequent set of access lines. Methods further include methods of determining the desired voltage level for the third voltage for each set of access lines.

摘要: Memory devices are configured to store a number of access line biasing patterns to be applied during a memory device operation performed on a particular row of memory cells in the memory device. Memory devices are further configured to support modification of the stored bias patterns, providing flexibility in biasing access lines through changes to the bias patterns stored in the memory device. Methods and devices further facilitate performing memory device operations under multiple biasing conditions to evaluate and characterize the memory device by adjustment of the stored bias patterns without requiring an associated hardware change to the memory device.

摘要: A memory device stores data in non-volatile memory. The memory device includes a non-volatile memory array. The memory array includes tiers for accessing data stored in blocks of the memory array, including a block having a left block portion and a right block portion. A first staircase is positioned between the left block portion and the right block portion, and a bottom portion of the first staircase includes steps corresponding to first tiers of the left block portion. A second staircase is positioned between the left block portion and the right block portion, and a top portion of the second staircase includes steps corresponding to second tiers of the right block portion. The steps of the first staircase and the steps of the second staircase descend in opposite directions.
