  • Patent number: 11798614
    Abstract: A system can include a memory devices and a processing device coupled with the memory devices. The processing device can receive a command and determine whether the command includes a value for a voltage associated with a read at the memory device. The processing device can also, responsive to the command failing to specify the value, select a second value, from multiple values, for the voltage associated with the read at the memory device based at on a duration subsequent to a previous write operation satisfying a threshold criterion. The processing device can also apply the voltage having the second value at memory cells of the memory device to determine a logic state for the memory cells.
