Abstract
A method can include receiving a request to read data from a block of a memory device, identifying a block family associated with the block of the memory device, identifying a voltage distribution parameter value associated with the block family, wherein the voltage distribution parameter value reflects an aggregate value of a corresponding voltage distribution associated with a plurality of memory cells of the block family, and determining a set of read levels associated with the voltage distribution parameter value, wherein each read level in the set of read levels corresponds to a respective voltage distribution of at least one memory cell comprised by the block of the memory device. The block family can be identified using a data structure that maps block identifiers to corresponding block family identifiers. The voltage distribution parameter value can be identified using a data structure that maps block family identifiers to corresponding voltage parameter values.
