  • Publication number: 20240071533
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided that includes a block of memory cells having a NAND string that includes a first select transistor, and a control circuit coupled to the block of memory cells. The control circuit is configured to perform an erase operation on the block of memory cells by determining a first count of a number of times that the block of memory cells previously has been programmed and erased, determining based on the first count a first drain-to-gate voltage of the first select transistor, wherein the first drain-to-gate voltage is configured to cause the first select transistor to generate a first gate-induced drain leakage current, and applying a first erase pulse to the first select transistor based on the determined first drain-to-gate voltage.

  • Patent number: 11676376
    Abstract: A method for detecting a field navigation line after ridge sealing of crops includes the following steps. A field crop image is acquired. Image color space transformation, image binaryzation, longitudinal integration, neighborhood setting and region integration calculation are sequentially performed on the field crop image to obtain a crop row image. Detections of an initial middle ridge, a left ridge and a right ridge are performed on the crop row image to obtain center lines of the initial middle ridge, left ridge and right ridge. Center lines of a left (right) crop row are established by using an area 1 between the center lines of the left (right) ridge and the initial middle ridge. A center line model of a middle ridge is established by using an area 0 between the center lines of the left and right crop rows, namely a navigation line of a field operation machine.
