Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses include sampling a memory subportion of a portion of memory, where the memory subportion includes multiple wordlines. A sampled voltage value for the memory subportion is determined based on the sampling. A maximum start voltage delta is received for the memory subportion, where the maximum start voltage delta is an estimated difference between the sampled voltage value and a lowest voltage value for the memory subportion. A start voltage to apply during programming of the memory subportion is determined using the sampled voltage value and the maximum start voltage delta.
