摘要: Systems, methods and apparatus to program a memory cell to have a threshold voltage to a level representative of one value among more than two predetermined values. A first voltage pulse is driven across the memory cell to cause a predetermined current to go through the memory cell. The first voltage pulse is sufficient to program the memory cell to a level representative of a first value. To program the memory cell to a level representative of a second value, a second voltage pulse, different from the first voltage pulse, is driven across the memory cell within a time period of residual poling in the memory cell caused by the first voltage pulse.

摘要: Described apparatuses and methods facilitate bus training with multiple dice, such as multiple memory dice. A controller can communicate with multiple dice over a bus to perform bus training by sending a test pattern and receiving in return a feedback pattern indicative of the bits detected by the dice. Because suitable signal timing can differ between dice, even those using the same bus, the controller may attempt to train each die separately from the others. In some situations, however, individualized training may be infeasible. To accommodate such situations, logic associated with two or more dice can combine the bits as detected from the test pattern into a combined feedback pattern. A timing parameter that is jointly suitable for multiple dice can be determined, and the bus training may be concluded, responsive to the combined feedback pattern matching the test pattern. The multiple dice may be stacked or linked.

摘要: Systems, methods and apparatus to program memory cells to an intermediate state. A first voltage pulse is applied in a first polarity across each respective memory cell among the memory cells to move its threshold voltage in the first polarity to a first voltage region representative of a first value. A second voltage pulse is then applied in a second polarity to further move its threshold voltage in the first polarity to a second voltage region representative of a second value and the intermediate state. A magnitude of the second voltage pulse applied for the memory cells is controlled by increasing the magnitude in increments until the memory cells are sensed to be conductive. Optionally, prior to the first voltage pulse, a third voltage pulse is applied in the second polarity to cancel or reduce a drift in threshold voltages of the respective memory cell.

Because suitable signal timing can differ between dice, even those using the same bus, a controller may train each die separately from the others. In some situations, however, individualized training may be infeasible. To accommodate such situations, logic associated with two or more dice can combine, using at least one logical operation, bits as detected from the test pattern into a combined feedback pattern. A timing parameter that is jointly suitable for multiple dice can be determined, and the bus training may be concluded, responsive to the combined feedback pattern matching the test pattern. The multiple dice may be stacked or linked.
