Abstract
A non-volatile memory includes a plurality of cells each individually capable of storing multiple bits of data including bits of multiple physical pages. A controller of the non-volatile memory issues a command to perform a programming pass for a physical page among the multiple physical pages. The controller determines whether or not the programming pass took less than a minimum threshold time and no program fail status indication was received. Based on determining the programming pass took less than a minimum threshold time and no program fail status indication was received, the controller detects an under-programming error and performs mitigation for the detected under-programming error.
