Abstract

A data storage device includes a non-volatile memory device having a number of memory dies. The data storage device further includes a controller. The controller is configured to poll each of the memory dies at a first predetermined rate for a thermal status bit and determine whether the thermal status bit of at least one memory die of the number of memory dies is an active thermal status bit activated. The controller is further configured to reduce the operating performance of the at least one memory die in response to determining that the thermal status bit of the at least one memory die of the plurality of memory dies is the active thermal status bit.
