  • Patent number: 12293099
    Abstract: A system includes a memory device and a processing device to initialize a block family associated with the memory device and a timer at initialization of the block family. The processing device further stores, in non-volatile memory of the memory device, a value of the timer before powering down the system while the block family is still open. The processing device further detects a power on of the system and measures a data state metric associated with one or more memory cell of a page of the memory device that is associated with the block family. The processing device further compares a level of the data state metric to a temporal voltage shift function to estimate a time after program value of the page and increments the value of the timer, restored from the non-volatile memory, based on the time after program value.

  • Publication number: 20250140317
    Abstract: A memory array includes a block including wordlines, bitlines, and strings each connected to a respective bitline. The block is divided into a sub-blocks. Each sub-block includes a respective set of the strings, and each string of the set of strings is located at a sub-block position within its respective sub-block. Control logic performs operations including selecting each sub-block, causing a first voltage to be applied to a dummy wordline to activate a first set of dummy cells and deactivate a second set of dummy cells, and causing a second voltage to be applied to a selected wordline. Each sub-block includes a single string corresponding to an open string connected to a dummy cell of the first set of dummy cells. The second voltage causes data to be read out from each open string to a respective page buffer.

  • Publication number: 20250130736
    Abstract: A processing device in a memory sub-system determines that an amount of host data in a first portion of a memory device configured as a program buffer satisfies a buffer threshold criterion and initiates an initial program pass of first host data from the program buffer to a second portion of the memory device configured as a primary memory. The processing device further determines that the first host data is to be evicted from the program buffer, and initiating a final program pass of the first host data from the program buffer to the primary memory.

  • Publication number: 20250111073
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to systems and methods to selectively encrypt data for a generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) application. The systems and methods as described herein provide access control for generative AI applications by applying encryption at the data level for all sensitive and regulated data values. Each data value identified as containing sensitive data can be individually encrypted with associated metadata that supports downstream processing by generative AI components and for access control. The encryption can be performed by inline network proxies that are configured by a centralized configuration management service. The use of centralized configuration management can be used for encryption and associated access control policies that is consistent across all of the data paths into and out of the protected systems.
