Abstract
An example method of performing memory access operations comprises: receiving a request to perform a memory access operation with respect to a set of memory cells connected to a wordline of a memory device; identifying a block family associated with the set of memory cells; determining, for each logical programming level of a plurality of logical programming levels, a corresponding default block family error avoidance (BFEA) threshold voltage offset value associated with the block family; determining a value of a data state metric associated with the set of memory cells; responsive to determining that the value of the data state metric satisfies a threshold criterion, determining, for each logical programming level of a plurality of logical programming levels, a corresponding sub-BFEA threshold voltage offset value; and performing the memory access operation by applying, for each logical programming level of the plurality of logical programming levels, a combination of the default BFEA threshold voltage value, the sub-BFEA threshold voltage value, and a corresponding base voltage level.
