MANAGING READ VOLTAGE LEVEL OF DATA UNITS IN A MEMORY DEVICE USING PROGRAM-TIME PROXIMITY

Abstract:

A processing device, operatively coupled with the memory device, is configured to receive a read request identifying data stored in a data unit of the memory device. The processing device further identifies a set of data units with which the data unit is associated, the set of data units is one of a plurality of sets of data units, and each data unit in the set of data units was programmed within a period of time associated with the set of data units. The processing device also determines a read voltage level of the set of data units, each of the plurality of sets of data units has a separate read voltage level. The processing device further performs a read operation on the data unit of the memory device using the read voltage level of the set of data units.
