EMPTY PAGE DETECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18400027 titled 'EMPTY PAGE DETECTION
The present disclosure involves configuring a system component, such as a memory sub-system controller, to detect erroneous empty pages. The controller detects read errors when reading data from memory components at different read levels. It then computes check failure unit count values and compares them to a threshold to determine if the read error corresponds to an empty page error.

Original Abstract Submitted
Aspects of the present disclosure configure a system component, such as a memory sub-system controller, to detect erroneous empty pages. The controller detects a read error associated with reading data from a set of memory components in accordance with an individual read level of a plurality of read levels. In response to detecting the read error, the controller computes one or more check failure unit count values corresponding to the individual read level. The controller compares the one or more check failure unit count values to a threshold value and determines whether the read error corresponds to an empty page read error based on a result of comparing the one or more check failure unit count values to the threshold value.
