摘要:
Techniques of reducing erroneous readings of the apparent charge levels stored in a number of rows of memory cells on account of capacitive coupling between the cells. All pages of a first row are programmed with a first pass, followed by programming all pages of a second adjacent row with a first pass, after which the first row is programmed with a second pass, and then all pages of a third row are programmed with a first pass, followed by returning to program the second row with a second pass, and so on, in a back-and-forth manner across the rows of an array. This minimizes the effect on the apparent charge stored on rows of memory cells that can occur by later writing data into adjacent rows of memory cells.

摘要:
In a non-volatile memory programming scheme where the memory cells are programmed in two or more sequential programming passes, when there is insufficient host data to program at least some of the memory cells during the second pass, some of the memory cells may be programmed to the wrong threshold voltage. This can be prevented by modifying the programming scheme so that this does not occur. In one implementation, this is accomplished by choosing a code scheme, which does not cause the memory cells to be programmed to the wrong threshold voltage during the second programming pass, or by programming the memory cells in accordance with substitute data that would not cause the cells to be programmed to an erroneous state.

摘要:
Shifts in the apparent charge stored on a floating gate (or other charge storing element) of a non-volatile memory cell can occur because of the coupling of an electric field based on the charge stored in adjacent floating gates (or other adjacent charge storing elements). To compensate for this coupling, the read or programming process for a given memory cell can take into account the programmed state of an adjacent memory cell. To determine whether compensation is needed, a process can be performed that includes sensing information about the programmed state of an adjacent memory cell (e.g., on an adjacent bit line or other location).
