Abstract
Various embodiments enable age tracking of one or more physical memory locations (e.g., physical blocks) of a memory die, which can be from part of a memory device. In particular, various embodiments provide age tracking of one or more physical memory locations of a memory die (e.g., memory integrated circuit (IC)) using one or more aging bins on the memory die, where each aging bin is associated with a different set of physical memory locations of the memory die. By use of an aging bin for a set of physical memory locations, various embodiments can enable a processing device that interacts with a memory die, after the memory die has been subjected to one or more reflow soldering processes, to determine how much the set of physical memory locations have aged after the one or more reflow soldering processes.
