A variety of applications can include apparatus and/or methods of operating the apparatus that include a memory device having read levels that can be calibrated. A calibration controller implemented with the memory device can trigger a read level calibration based on inputs from one or more trackers monitoring parameters associated with the memory device and a determination of an occurrence of at least one event from a set of events related to the monitored parameters. The monitored parameters can include parameters related to a selected time interval and measurements of read, erase, or write operations of the memory device. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

Systems and methods related to memory devices that may perform error check and correct (ECC) functionality. The systems and methods may employ ECC logic that may be shared between two or more banks. The ECC logic may be used to perform memory operations such as read, write, and masked-write operations, and may increase reliability of storage data.

A method of controlling a memory device can include: receiving, by an interface, a write command from a host; beginning execution of a write operation on a first array plane of a memory array in response to the write command, where the memory array includes a plurality of memory cells arranged in a plurality of array planes; receiving, by the interface, a read command from the host; reconfiguring the write operation in response to detection of the read command during execution of the write operation; beginning execution of a read operation on a second array plane in response to the read command; and restoring the configuration of the write operation after the read operation has at least partially been executed.

An operation method of a memory system includes performing a first read operation on a word line corresponding to a read command, using a read voltage set including a first read voltage; performing a second read operation on the word line using a second read voltage greater than the first read voltage, depending on whether error correction on data read through the first read operation fails; and determining a memory block that includes a memory cell to which the word line is coupled as a closed memory block, depending on whether the word line is determined to be an erased word line as the result of the second read operation.

An apparatus includes a first single-port memory, a second single-port memory, and one or more control circuits in communication with the first single-port memory and in communication with the second single-port memory. The one or more control circuits are configured to initiate a read of stored data on a clock cycle from a physical location of the stored data in the first or second single-port memory and to initiate a write of fresh data on the clock cycle to whichever of the first single-port memory or the second single-port memory does not contain the physical location of the stored data.

A non-volatile memory system includes a control circuit connected to non-volatile memory cells. The control circuit is configured to simultaneously program memory cells connected to different word lines that are in different sub-blocks of different blocks in different planes of a die.
