  • Publication number: 20240145006
    Abstract: Memory cells of a second sub-block are programmed by pre-charging channels of unselected memory cells connected to the selected word line, boosting the pre-charged channels of unselected memory cells and applying a program voltage to selected non-volatile memory cells connected to the selected word line. The pre-charging includes applying one or more overdrive voltages to word lines connected to memory cells of a first sub-block to provide a conductive path from memory cells of the second sub-block through the first sub-block to a source line and maintaining the word lines connected to memory cells of the first sub-block at one or more overdrive voltages while ramping down signals at the end of the pre-charging. Dummy word lines, positioned between sub-blocks, are maintained at a resting voltage during the boosting in order to cut-off channels of memory cells in the second sub-block from channels of memory cells in the first sub-block.

  • Patent number: 11972819
    Abstract: In a non-volatile memory system that performs programming of selected memory cells (in coordination with pre-charging and boosting of channels for unselected memory cells) and program-verify to determine whether the programming was successful, the system transitions from program-verify to the next dose of programming by concurrently lowering a voltage applied to a selected word line and voltages applied to word lines on a first side of the selected word line at the conclusion of program-verify. Subsequent to lowering the voltage applied to the selected word line, the system successively lowers voltages applied to groups of one or more word lines on a second side of the selected word line at the conclusion of program-verify beginning with a group of one or more word lines immediately adjacent the selected word line and progressing to other groups of one or more word lines disposed increasingly remote from the selected word line.

  • Patent number: 11960745
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure configure a system component, such as memory sub-system controller, to perform empty page scan operations. The controller selects a portion of the set of memory components that is empty and ready to be programmed. The controller reads one or more signals from the selected portion of the set of memory components. The controller generates an error count value representing whether the portion of the set of memory components is valid for programming based on a result of reading the one or more signals from the selected portion. The controller updates a scan frequency for performing the empty page scan operations for the portion of the set of memory components based on the error count value.

  • Publication number: 20240112743
    Abstract: An apparatus includes memory cells connected to word lines and disposed in strings each defining a channel and coupled to bit lines and a source line. The memory cells are configured to retain a threshold voltage corresponding to data states. A control means is configured to apply programming pulses followed by verification pulses of program verify voltages associated with the data states to the word lines during a program operation. The control means ramps a selected word line voltage applied to the word lines from one of the program verify voltages to approximately zero while ramping voltages applied to the bit lines and the source line to a high supply voltage during a pre-charge operation. The control means ramps an assist voltage applied to a pre-charge assist portion of the memory apparatus to generate gate-induced drain leakage current in the strings and pre-charge the channel during the pre-charge operation.
