Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present disclosure includes apparatuses and methods for continuous adjusting of sensing voltages. A number of embodiments include continuously monitoring an error rate associated with sense operations performed on a group of memory cells, and continuously adjusting a sensing voltage used to determine a state of the memory cells of the group based, at least partially, on the error rate.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for operating memory, comprising: continuously monitoring an error rate associated with sense operations performed on a group of memory cells, wherein the continuous monitoring includes: determining a current error rate associated with each of a particular number of sense operations currently performed on the memory cells of the group; and summing the current error rates; and continuously adjusting a sensing voltage used to determine a state…
