Abstract
Predictive block health assessment of a non-volatile memory can be performed by storing a pre-trained neural network for this purpose on the memory device itself. As operational errors occur during operation of the memory device, this defect data is saved by the non-volatile memory and used as input data for the neural network to identify and retire potential bad blocks before data loss occurs.
