Abstract: A memory system configured to dynamically adjust the amount of redundant information stored in memory cells of a wordline on an integrated circuit die based on a bit error rate. For example, in response to a determination that a bit error rate of the wordline is above a threshold, the memory system can store first data items as independent first codewords of an error correction code technique into a first portion of the memory cells of the wordline, generate second data items as redundant information from the first codewords, and store the second data items in a second portion of the memory cells of the wordline. If the bit error rate is below the threshold, third data items can be stored as independent second codewords of the same length as the first codewords in the memory cells of the wordline.

When a smallest one in the count differences is found at a side of a distribution of the count differences according to voltage, the memory device is configured to determine a location of an optimized read voltage, based on a ratio between a first count difference and a second count difference, where the first count difference is the smallest in the count differences, and the second count difference is closest in voltage to the first count difference.

Abstract: A memory device to use added known data as part of data written to memory cells with redundant data generated according to an Error Correction Code (ECC). The code rate of the ECC may limit its capability to recover from excessive errors in the stored data. To reduce the errors, the added data retrieved from the memory cells can be corrected without using the ECC. Subsequently, remaining errors can be corrected via the ECC. Optionally, the added data can be configured to be the same as the data represented by an erased state of a subset of the memory cells such that when the subset is used to store the added data, the subset remains in the erased state to reduce wearing. Different subsets can be used to store added data for different write operations to distribute the benefit of reduced wearing.

Abstract: A memory device to manage the assignment of offset voltages for read operations, and to adjust read voltages using the offset voltages. The offset voltages are dynamically adjusted by a controller during operation of the memory device in response to read errors. In one approach, a first bin of offset voltages is assigned to a first region of a storage media. The first offset voltages are used to adjust read voltages for reading a page of first memory cells in the first region. The controller determines that at least one error has occurred in reading the page. In response to determining the error, the controller determines second offset voltages that can be used to read the first memory cell without causing a read error. Based on the second offset voltages, the controller identifies third offset voltages for assigning to the first region. The third offset voltages are used for adjusting read voltages for subsequent reads of pages in the first region.
