  • Publication number: 20240312538
    Abstract: A non-volatile memory system is configured to perform a multiplane erase process that concurrently erases groups of memory cells in multiple planes. Based on that multiplane erase process, the memory system determines that a first group of memory cells in a first plane of the multiple planes is slow to erase. As a result, the system will perform one or more multiplane erase processes for the groups of memory cells in multiple planes without erasing the first group of memory cells in the first plane as part of the multiplane erase process(es).

  • Patent number: 11810628
    Abstract: When erasing multiple sub-blocks of a block, erase verify is performed for memory cells connected to even word lines to generate even results and for memory cells connected to odd word lines to generate odd results. The even results and the odd results are used to determine that the erase verify process successfully completed. For each NAND string of a first sub-block, a last even result for the NAND string is compared to a last odd result for the NAND string. Despite the determination that the first sub-block successfully completed erase verify, the erasing failed for the first sub-block because the number of NAND strings that have the last even result different than the last odd result is greater than a limit. The system determines that one or more additional sub-blocks also failed erasing based on and in response to determining that the first sub-block failed erasing.

  • Publication number: 20230058836
    Abstract: A non-volatile memory system performs an erase process followed by a program process to program blocks of memory cells. The erase process comprises erasing followed by erase verification. The system recovers data and records a strike for blocks that fail a read process. In response to a particular block having a strike, the system performs an odd/even compare process during the erase process for the particular blocks having the strike such that the odd/even compare process comprises determining whether a number of memory cells connected to even word lines that have a different erase verify result than memory cells connected to odd word lines is greater than a defect test threshold. The system retires blocks from further use for storing host data that fail the odd/even compare process even if the block passes erase verification.

  • Patent number: 11578159
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of low levels of glycols and short chain diols to control air void formation in any polymerization reaction having carbonyl-containing monomers, and preferably carboxylic acid ester monomers, at a level of at least 10% of total monomer, where the monomer has a peak polymerization exotherm temperature of greater than the boiling point of the monomer. The glycols and short chain diols are used in the polymization mixture at levels of 0.5 to 10 weight percent, based on the carboxylic acid ester-containing monomer. It is believed the glycols and short chain diols hydrogen bond with the —(C?O)O— containing monomer to increase the monomer boiling point, and decrease or even eliminate the formation of air voids due to monomer boiling. The invention is especially useful in polymerization of methyl methacrylate polymers and copolymers, either neat, or as a polymer composite system.

  • Patent number: 11194523
    Abstract: A data storage device includes a non-volatile memory and a controller coupled to the non-volatile memory. The controller is operable to measure a first threshold voltage (VT) of a memory cell under a first parameter at a read temperature and measure a second VT of the memory cell under a second parameter at the read temperature in which the first parameter is different from the second parameter. A VT correction term for the memory cell is determined based upon the first VT measurement and the second VT measurement. A read VT of the memory cell is adjusted by using the VT correction term.

  • Patent number: 10968296
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of low levels of aliphatic primary and secondary amines to control air void formation in any polymerization reaction having carbonyl groups, and especially carboxylic acid ester group-containing monomers at a level of at least 10% of total monomer, where the monomer has a peak polymerization exotherm temperature of greater than the boiling point of the monomer. The primary or secondary amines are used in the polymerization mixture at levels of 100 to 5000 ppm, based on the carboxylic acid ester group-containing monomer. It is believed the primary and secondary amines hydrogen bond with the —C?O)O— containing monomer to increase the monomer boiling point, and decrease or even eliminate the formation of air voids due to monomer boiling. The invention is especially useful in polymerization of methymethacrylate polymers and copolymers, either neat, or as a polymer composite system.
