    Abstract: An apparatus and/or system is described including a memory device or a controller for a memory device to perform an adjustment of a read operation time for data stored in the memory device. In embodiments, the apparatus may receive a request for data stored in the memory device and a read operation time adjustment module operable by the controller may acquire a first operation temperature of the memory device, obtained at a time of programming of the data stored in the memory device. The apparatus may acquire a second operation temperature of the memory device, obtained after the request for the data stored in the memory device is received. Based at least partially on the first operation temperature and the second operation temperature, the apparatus may adjust the read operation time to read the data. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that conducts a pulse-verify loop sequence from a first program level in targeted NAND memory cells to a next-to-last program level in the memory cells, wherein the pulse-verify loop sequence includes an issuance of a program pulse and one or more verify pulses to the memory cells on a per program level basis, and wherein successive program pulses differ from one another by a gate step voltage amount. The technology may also issue a last level program pulse to the memory cells at a last program level, issue a single verify pulse to the memory cells after the last level program pulse, and issue a gate step pulse to the memory cells at a variable program level, wherein the variable program level differs from the last program level by an amount that is greater than the gate step voltage amount.
