Abstract: A method and system for improved foggy-fine programming includes data that can be written to SLC memory. Then, the data can be decoded and then both foggy and finely written to MLC. After the decoding, the data can be stored in DRAM located in a front end or in a SRAM located in a flash manager prior to being written to MLC. After storing in either the DRAM or SRAM, the data is then decoded and written to MLC.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to improved foggy-fine programming. The data can be written to SLC memory. Then, the data can be decoded and then both foggy and finely written to MLC. After the decoding, the data can be stored in DRAM located in a front end or in a SRAM located in a flash manager prior to being written to MLC. After storing in either the DRAM or SRAM, the data is then decoded and written to MLC.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a non-volatile memory and a controller coupled to the non-volatile memory. The controller includes an interface configured to send first data to be stored to the non-volatile memory. The controller further includes a control circuit configured to generate updated control information based on storing of the first data to the non-volatile memory. The interface is further configured to concurrently send second data and the updated control information to be stored at the non-volatile memory.

Abstract: A data storage device includes a non-volatile memory and a controller. A method includes determining a decoding error associated with information stored at a page of a first block of the non-volatile memory. In response to the decoding error, a physical address is accessed from the management table. The physical address corresponds to a trial logical address. In response to the physical address corresponding to the page, the method further includes moving data from the page to a second block of the non-volatile memory.
