  • Patent number: 12189522
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for suspend operations are described. A memory device may perform a write operation including one or more programming phases and one or more verify phases. The memory device may receive a read command while performing the write operation and determine whether the verify phase of the write operation is complete. The memory device may suspend a performance of the write operation in response to determining that the verify phase of the write operation is complete. The memory device may transmit first information for the write operation from a first latch to a volatile memory device in response to suspending the performance of the write operation. The memory device may perform a read operation associated with the read command in response to suspending the performance of the write operation and transferring the first information.

  • Publication number: 20240426664
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to devices and methods for synchronizing capturing of spectral images, capturing of thermal images, and capturing of panchromatic images. A thermal imaging device of an aerial vehicle captures a sequence of thermal images. Capturing of spectral images by a spectral imaging device of the aerial vehicle is synchronized with the capturing of the thermal images. Capturing of panchromatic images is synchronized with the capturing of thermal images. Irradiance data indicative of a background temperature is sensed. A digital surface model of an area of interest is generated based on the sequence of spectral images. An emissivity of a target is estimated and a temperature of a pixel of the digital surface model of the target is estimated based on the sequence of thermal images, the irradiance data indicative of the background temperature and the estimated emissivity of the target.

  • Publication number: 20240339158
    Abstract: Control logic in a memory device initiates a program operation including a first phase including applying a ramping voltage level to a set of wordlines of a memory device to boost a set of pillar voltages and a second phase including applying a set of programming pulses to a wordline associated with one or more memory cells of the memory device to be programmed to a set of programming levels, wherein each programming level of the set of programming levels is programmed by each programming pulse. During the first phase of the program operation, a first voltage applied to a drain-side select line (SGD) is adjusted from a first SGD voltage level to a second SGD voltage level.

  • Publication number: 20240312537
    Abstract: A request to execute a programming operation to program multiple sub-blocks including a first sub-block and a second sub-block of a memory device is identified. A first drive operation is executed to load first data into a first select gate drain (SGD) associated with the first sub-block. One or more program bias disturb mitigation operations are executed in association with a second drive operation to load second data into a second SGD associated with the second sub-block.

  • Publication number: 20240312525
    Abstract: A request to execute a programming operation to program multiple sub-blocks including a first sub-block and a second sub-block of a memory device is identified. A first drive operation is executed to load first data into a first select gate drain (SGD) associated with the first sub-block. Following completion of the first drive operation, a second drive operation is executed to load second data into a second SGD associated with the second sub-block. Following completion of the second drive operation, a third drive operation is executed to re-load the first data into the first SGD.

  • Publication number: 20240249789
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure configure a memory sub-system controller to adaptively allocate word lines (WLs). The controller accesses reliability data of a set of main WLs of a block of the set of memory components. The controller determines that one or more WLs of the set of main WLs of the block are associated with respective reliability data that transgress a threshold and, in response to determining that the one or more WLs are associated with the respective reliability data that transgress the threshold, replaces the one or more WLs of the set of main WLs of the block with one or more dummy WLs. The controller programs data into the block using the one or more dummy WLs instead of the one or more WLs of the set of main WLs of the block.
