Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices related to auto-referenced memory cell read techniques are described. The auto-referenced read may encode user data to include a certain number bits having a first logic state prior to storing the user data in memory cells. Subsequently, reading the encoded user data may be carried out by applying a read voltage to the memory cells while monitoring a series of switching events by activating a subset of the memory cells having the first logic state. The auto-referenced read may identify a particular switching event that correlates to a median threshold voltage value of the subset of the memory cells. Then, the auto-referenced read may determine a reference voltage that takes into account a statistical property of threshold voltage distribution of the subset of the memory cells. The auto-referenced read may identify a time duration to maintain the read voltage based on determining the reference voltage. When the time duration expires, the auto-referenced read may determine that the memory cells that have been activated correspond to the first logic state.

Abstract: A memory array and a method of writing to a unidirectional non-volatile storage cell are disclosed whereby a user data word is transformed to an internal data word and written to one or more unidirectional data storage cells according to a cell coding scheme. A check word may be generated that corresponds to the internal data word. In some embodiments, the check word may be generated by inverting one or more bits of an intermediate check word. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: A variety of applications can include a memory device having chained mapping with compression of received data. The memory device can include a mapping table having an entry location to associate a virtual page with a physical address of a first stripe of compressed data of the virtual page. A controller of the memory device, responsive to the data of the virtual page being compressed data, can load information about a second stripe of the compressed data into extra locations in the first stripe different from locations for compressed data of the virtual page in the first stripe. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: A system and method for memory error recovery in compute express link (CXL) components is presented. The method includes determining that a memory component has sustained a hard failure in a Cyclic Redundancy Check-Redundant Array of Independent Devices (CRC-RAID) mechanism. The method further includes determining a location of the memory component failure, wherein the CRC-RAID mechanism comprises a plurality of memory components configured as a plurality of stripes and initiates a write operation of user data to a location within a particular stripe, wherein the particular stripe contains a failed memory component. The method includes compensating for the failed memory component, wherein the compensating comprises a plurality of read operations prior to a writing of the user data.

Abstract: The present disclosure includes apparatuses, methods, and systems for balancing data in memory. An embodiment includes a memory having a group of memory cells, wherein each respective memory cell is programmable to one of three possible data states, and circuitry to balance data programmed to the group between the three possible data states by determining whether the data programmed to the group is balanced for any one of the three possible data states, and upon determining the data programmed to the group is not balanced for any one of the three possible data states apply a rotational mapping algorithm to the data programmed to the group until the data is balanced for any one of the three possible data states and apply a Knuth algorithm to the data of the group programmed to the two of the three possible data states that were not balanced by the rotational mapping algorithm.
