CHARGE LOSS SCAN OPERATION MANAGEMENT IN MEMORY DEVICES

Abstract:

A memory system includes a memory device and a processing device, operatively coupled to the memory device. The processing device performs operations comprising: identifying an operating temperature of the memory device; determining that the operating temperature satisfies a temperature condition; modifying a scan frequency parameter for performing a scan operation on representative blocks of a set of blocks in the memory device; and performing the scan operation at a frequency identified by the scan frequency parameter.
