Abstract
Several embodiments of memory devices and systems for real time block failure analysis are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a system includes a memory array including a plurality of memory cells and a processing device coupled to the memory array. The processing device is configured to sense, in response to detection of an error associated with a subset of a plurality of memory cells of the memory device, a state associated with each memory cell of the subset of the plurality of memory cells. The processing device is further configured to store state distribution information in a persistent memory, the state distribution information comprising the sensed state associated with each memory cell of the subset.
