TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES IN A MEMORY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17826434 titled 'TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES IN A MEMORY DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a memory device with multiple memory cells arranged in word lines.
- The memory device has a controller that communicates with the memory cells.
- During programming, the controller measures the temperature of the memory device.
- The controller then programs the memory cells of a selected word line in multiple program loops until programming is completed or until the maximum number of program loops is reached.
- The maximum number of program loops is determined based on the detected temperature.
Original Abstract Submitted
The memory device that includes a plurality of memory cells that are arranged in a plurality of word lines. A controller is in electrical communication with the plurality of memory cells. During programming, the controller detects a temperature of the memory device. The controller then programs the memory cells of a selected word line of the plurality of word lines in a plurality of program loops until programming is completed or until the plurality of program loops is greater than a maximum number of program loops. The maximum number of program loops is dependent on the temperature that is detected.
