Abstract: Certain apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are used for multi-plane memory management. An apparatus includes a failure detection circuit that detects a failure of a storage element during an operation. An apparatus includes a test circuit that performs a test on a storage element. An apparatus includes a recycle circuit that enables a portion of a storage element for use in operations in response to the portion of the storage element passing a test.

Abstract: A partial memory die is missing one or more components. One example of a partial memory die includes an incomplete memory structure such that the partial memory die is configured to successfully perform programming, erasing and reading of the incomplete memory structure.

Abstract: A partial memory die comprises a memory structure that includes a first plane of non-volatile memory cells and a second plane of non-volatile memory cells. The second plane of non-volatile memory cells is incomplete. A first buffer is connected to the first plane. A second buffer is connected to the second plane. A data path circuit is connected to an input interface, the first buffer and the second buffer. The data path circuit is configured to map data received at the input interface and route the mapped data to either the first buffer or the second buffer. An inter-plane re-mapping circuit is connected to the first buffer and the second buffer, and is configured to re-map data from the first buffer and store the re-mapped data in the second buffer for programming into the second plane.

Abstract: Techniques are presented for testing the high-speed data path between the IO pads and the read/write buffer of a memory circuit without the use of an external test device. In an on-chip process, a data test pattern is transferred at a high data rate between the read/write register and a source for the test pattern, such as register for this purpose or the read/write buffer of another plane. The test data after the high-speed transfer is then checked against its expected, uncorrupted value, such as by transferring it back at a lower speed for comparison or by transferring the test data a second time, but at a lower rate, and comparing the high transfer rate copy with the lower transfer rate copy at the receiving end of the transfers.
