Memory management for charge leakage in a memory device

Last updated:

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and devices for memory management associated with charge leakage in a memory device are described. A memory device may identify a charge leakage associated with one or more memory cells or access lines, and may determine whether to invert a logic state stored by a memory cell or a set of memory cells to improve the likelihood that the memory cells are read properly in the presence of charge leakage. In some examples, the memory device may also store an indication that the complement of the detected logic state was written, such as a bit flip indication, which may correspond to one memory cell or a set of memory cells.
