Abstract
Proactively adjusting read voltages at the system level, before performing a read operation on data located in a partially-programmed block in a block-addressable non-volatile memory, can significantly reduce the re-read trigger rate. This reduces the rate of entering a read recovery flow and subsequent read latency. Determining in advance a wordline-specific pattern of wordline offsets associated with past unsuccessful reads in partially-programmed blocks allows read voltages to be proactively adjusted for vulnerable wordlines. Read voltages are restored for subsequent read operations.
