METHODS OF CONFIGURING A MEMORY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18232386 titled 'METHODS OF CONFIGURING A MEMORY
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes methods for configuring a memory.
- The methods involve determining the read window budget for programming the memory based on the programming step voltage and the age of the memory cells.
- The programming step voltage is determined for each age of the memory cells to achieve the desired read window budget.
- The determined programming step voltage for each age of the memory cells is stored in the memory as data.
- This configuration method allows for efficient programming of the memory cells based on their age, ensuring optimal performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods of configuring a memory might include characterizing a read window budget for a programming operation of the memory as a function of a programming step voltage for a plurality of memory cell ages, determining a respective programming step voltage for each memory cell age of the plurality of memory cell ages in response to a desired read window budget, and storing data to the memory indicative of the determined respective programming step voltage for each memory cell age of the plurality of memory cell ages.
