Abstract
A memory device to determine a voltage optimized to read a group of memory cells by reading the group of memory cells at a plurality of test voltages, computing bit counts at the test voltages respectively, and computing count differences in the bit counts for pairs of adjacent voltages in the test voltages. When a smallest one in the count differences is found at a side of a distribution of the count differences according to voltage, the memory device is configured to determine a location of an optimized read voltage, based on a ratio between a first count difference and a second count difference, where the first count difference is the smallest in the count differences, and the second count difference is closest in voltage to the first count difference.
