Configuration update for a memory device based on a temperature of the memory device

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for operating a ferroelectric memory cell or cells and, more particularly, a temperature update for a memory device are described. A memory array may be operated according to a timing cycle that includes a first interval for performing a first type of operation and a second interval for performing a second type of operation, where a duration of the first interval is greater than a duration of the second type of interval. A temperature related to a temperature of at least a portion of the memory array may be sampled during an interval of the second type, and the memory array may be reconfigured based at least in part on a sampled temperature. The first type of operation may then be performed on a reconfigured memory array during an interval of the first type.
