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.

A method for operating a memory includes: receiving a first write command and a first write address; receiving first write data a portion of which is masked; reading first read data and a first read error correction code from a region selected based on the first write address in a cell array; detecting and correcting an error in the first read data based on the first read error correction code to produce error-corrected first read data; generating first new write data by replacing the masked portion of the first write data with a portion of the error-corrected first read data; generating a first write error correction code based on the first new write data; and writing the first new write data and the first write error correction code into the region selected based on the first write address in response to the detecting of the error.

A data storage device includes a memory device and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller is configured to decode data from the memory device, store a decoder level for the decoded data in a bloom filter, receive a read command for the data, and decode the data using a decoder associated with the stored decoder level. The decoder level corresponds to a decoder having a certain decoding strength. The decoder level is stored in the bloom filter as an ID, where a bloom filter may be associated with each decoder level.

A data processing system includes a memory configured to receive memory access requests. Each memory access request having a corresponding access address and having a corresponding parity bit for an address value of the corresponding access address. The corresponding access address is received over a plurality of address lines and the parity bit is received over a parity line. The memory includes a memory array having a plurality of memory cells arranged in rows, each row having a corresponding word line of a plurality of word lines, and a row decoder coupled to the plurality of address lines, the parity line, and the plurality of word lines. The row decoder is configured to selectively activate a selected word line of the plurality of word lines based on the corresponding access address and the corresponding parity bit of a received memory access request. The concept can also be used with parity bits on columns of the memory cells and a column decoder that selects bit lines associated with column address lines.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods related to a flip-on-precharge disable operation are described herein. In an example, a flip-on-precharge disable operation can include activating a set of memory cells in a memory device to perform a memory access. The memory device can include a plurality of sets of memory cells corresponding to respective portions of an array of memory cells of the memory device. The flip-on-precharge disable operation can further include receiving signaling indicative of a command for a precharge operation on a set of the plurality of sets of memory cells. The signaling can include one or more bits that indicates whether to disable a randomly performed flip operation on the set of memory cells. The flip-on-precharge disable operation can include, in response to the one or more bits indicating to disable the flip operation, performing the precharge operation without randomly performing the flip operation on the set of memory cells.

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor storage device includes a first memory cell capable of storing n-bit data (n is a natural number not less than 4). When receiving first data, including first and second bits of the n-bit data, from a controller, the semiconductor storage device writes the received first data to the first memory cell. After receiving the first data, when the semiconductor storage device receives second data including third and fourth bits of the n-bit data, the semiconductor storage device reads the first and second bits from the first memory cell and writes the n-bit data to the first memory cell based on the read first and second bits and the received second data.

A method includes: retrieving a first word comprising a plurality of data bits and a plurality of parity bits that correspond to the first word, wherein the plurality of data bits form N−1 groups and the plurality of parity bits form a first group different from the N−1 groups, and N is a positive integer greater than 2; receiving a request to update respective data bits of a first one of the N−1 groups; and providing a second word comprising updated data bits that form a second one of the N−1 groups and a plurality of updated parity bits that correspond to the second word, wherein the plurality of updated parity bits form a second group that has a same group index as the first one of the N−1 groups.

Methods, systems, and media for decoding data are described. A sequence of read-level voltages for decoding operations may be determined based on a trend of decoding success indicators, including a first decoding success indicator and a second decoding success indicator. The first decoding success indicator is obtained from a more recent successful decoding operation. The first one of the sequence may be set to a read-level voltage of the first decoding success indicator. If the read-level voltage of the first decoding success indicator is less than a read-level voltage of the second decoding success indicator, then the trend is decreasing, and the second one of the sequence may be set to a read-level voltage less than that of the first one of the sequence. After executing one or more decoding operations, the decoding success indicators may be updated based on the read-level voltage of the current successful decoding operation.

A processing device, operatively coupled with the memory device, is configured to determine a first error rate associated a first set of pages of a plurality of pages of a data unit of a memory device, and a second error rate associated with a second set of pages of the plurality of pages of the data unit, determine a first pattern of error rate change for the data unit based on the first error rate and the second error rate, and responsive to determining that the first pattern of error rate change corresponds to a predetermined second pattern of error rate change, perform an action pertaining to defect remediation with respect to the data unit.

According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a memory controller and a nonvolatile memory with multiple planes each provided with multiple word lines, memory cell groups, dummy word lines, and dummy memory cell groups. The memory controller writes data to a memory cell group connected to a corresponding word line of any of the planes, such that a plane to which k-th data are to be written is different from a plane to which (k+m−1)-th data are to be written, and writes the parities to any of the dummy memory cell groups. The combinations of the data used for generating the different parities are different from each other.
