Patent number: 11972787Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for refreshing threshold switching selectors in programmable resistance memory cells in cross-point memory arrays. The Vt of the threshold switching selector may drift over time. The memory system resets the Vt of the threshold switching selectors with a selector refresh operation and uses a separate data refresh operation to refresh data in programmable resistance memory elements. The data refresh operation itself may also refresh the selector. However, the threshold switching selector refresh operation is faster than the data refresh operation. Moreover, the selector refresh operation consumes much less power and/or current then the data refresh operation. The selector refresh operation may thus be performed at a higher rate than the data refresh operation.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2022Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: SanDisk Technologies LLCInventors: Michael Nicolas Albert Tran, Michael K. Grobis, Ward Parkinson, Nathan Franklin
