Abstract: Disclosed herein are detection methods that use magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to allow molecules to be identified. Embodiments of this disclosure include methods of using magnetic sensors (e.g., magnetoresistive sensors) to detect temperature-dependent magnetic fields (or changes in magnetic fields) emitted by MNPs, and, specifically to distinguish between the presence and absence of magnetic fields emitted, or not emitted, by MNPs at different temperatures selected to take advantage of knowledge of how the MNPs' magnetic properties change with temperature. Embodiments disclosed herein may be used for nucleic acid sequencing, such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing.

Abstract: Methods, data storage devices, and computer-readable media for setting the flying height of a recording head are disclosed. A method may set a value of a control parameter of the recording head to force a predetermined location of the recording head to be a touchdown location. The method may involve incrementally moving the recording head toward a surface of a recording media, and, using a temperature sensor of the recording head, detecting an onset of touchdown at the touchdown location as the recording head is incrementally moving toward the surface of the recording media. The method may set the fly-height control power by backing off from an initial fly-height control power value, which may be a sum of a power level at which the onset of touchdown at the touchdown location was detected and a power corresponding to the value of the control parameter.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed for controlling reads in a memory device supporting different types of reads having different performance times (e.g., a relatively fast read such as a globally-referenced read and a slower read such as a self-referenced read). The data out latencies of the different read types may be different to accommodate the different performance times. The memory controller may mix the different types of reads. The memory controller tracks expected usage of the data bus and schedules read commands accordingly to avoid data collisions. A countdown timer may be used to track the earliest clock cycle at which the memory device may return data for a new read command to be issued. The memory controller may record what clock cycles the data bus is projected to be occupied with data and schedule read commands based on the projected data bus occupancy to avoid data collisions.

Abstract: In order to ensure that a bandwidth allocated to each tenant of a plurality of tenants of a data storage device is maintained, a controller of the data storage device may split a large read command, received from a host device, into a plurality of chunks, where each chunk corresponds to a distinct portion of the split large read command. Because the allocated bandwidth for a tenant is static, one or more chunks of the plurality of chunks, up to the allocated bandwidth, are executed, such that the bandwidth required to perform the one or more chunks does not exceed the allocated bandwidth for the particular tenant. Split information is added to the plurality of chunks in order to maintain coherency when executing the one or more chunks. Therefore, the agreed-upon allocated bandwidth for each tenant is maintained while performing large read commands requiring more bandwidth than allocated.

Each non-volatile memory cell includes a programmable resistive element. Each control circuit is configured with an individual address offset. The plurality of control circuits are configured to: receive a read address from a memory controller in parallel, apply the respective individual address offsets to the read address to generate respective offset addresses, read portions of data from the respective offset addresses and send the data read from the offset addresses to the memory controller to perform Error Correction Code (ECC) decoding of the portions of data.

Abstract: In a word line leakage detection process in a NAND or other non-volatile memory device, a stress selected set of word lines have a high stress voltage applied while other parts of an array are biased to a low level. While stressing the memory array, the current drawn by the array is compared to a leakage detection current that increases in amplitude. For example, this can be done by mirroring the array current and comparing this with the current from a current source that increases in response to a digital input value and determining when it exceeds the mirror current, at which point the stress is discontinued. In addition to determining the amount of leakage, this approach results in low leakage word lines receiving less stress, while greater leakage result in greater amounts of stress being applied.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for a dynamic bitscan. The dynamic bitscan may include performing a first bitscan of a first strict subset of memory cells. Then, based on results of the first bitscan, a determination is made whether to perform a second bitscan of a second strict subset of memory cells.

However, the second bitscan is performed at least sometimes, which increases accuracy. The first strict subset of memory cells and the second strict subset of memory cells may have different locations relative to some point in the block that contains the memory cells. The first strict subset of memory cells and the second strict subset may have different programming speeds.
