  • Publication number: 20240395338
    Abstract: Processing logic in a memory device receives a calibration scan command associated with the memory device. In response to the calibration scan command, execution of a set of read operations at a plurality of read voltage levels on the memory device is caused. In response to the calibration scan command, a set of bit counts is identified, where each bit count of the set of bit counts corresponds to a respective bin of a set of bins associated with the plurality of read voltage levels. Based on the bit count corresponding to each bin of the set of bins, a bin having a lowest bit count is identified.

  • Publication number: 20240359449
    Abstract: A high-speed, cold laminating system includes a lamination unit for inline use connected with a paper feeder supplying at least 30 ppm. The lamination unit further includes a set of unheated motor-driven laminating pressure rollers along a laminating path, and a cutter between the rollers and an exit. A diverter gate passes the paper sheets to the laminating path or to the exit without passing along the laminating path. The system includes a controller to control the motor, the diverter gate, and functions of the lamination unit. The controller is programmed to control the motor to pause the pressure rollers with a leading sheet therein while a subsequent sheet moves toward the pressure rollers so a laminated spacing distance between a trailing edge of the leading sheet and a leading edge of the subsequent sheet to equal a prescribed spacing distance.

  • Patent number: 12073891
    Abstract: Processing logic in a memory device receives a command to execute a set of read operations having read voltage levels corresponding to a programming distribution associated with the memory device. A set of memory bit counts is determined, where each memory bit count corresponds to a respective bin of a set of bins associated with the multiple read voltage levels of the set of read operations. A valley center bin having a minimum memory bit count of the set of memory bit counts is determined. The processing logic determines that the minimum memory bit count of the valley center bin satisfies a condition and an adjusted read voltage level associated with the valley center bin is identified in response to the condition being satisfied.
