Abstract
A request to perform a write operation at a memory device is received. Current wordline start voltage (WLSV) information associated with a particular memory segment of the plurality of memory segments is retrieved. In a firmware record in a memory sub-system controller, information is stored indicative of a last written memory page associated with the particular memory segment on which the write operation is performed. The firmware record is managed in view of the information indicative of the last written memory page associated with the performed write operation. Each entry of the firmware record comprises one or more identifying indicia associated with a respective memory segment, at least one of the identifying indicia being a wordline start voltage (WLSV) associated with the respective memory segment, and the other indicia is a plane mask. Plane mask compatibility helps identify which pages can be programmed together in a multi-plane write operation.
