Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for programming data in a non-volatile memory array are disclosed. A data storage device includes a non-volatile memory array including a plurality of non-volatile memory cells and a controller configured to receive a signal indicating a temperature of at least a portion of the data storage device. The controller determines a first offset program verify level associated with a first programming level based at least in part on the temperature and programs a first set of the memory cells of the non-volatile memory array using the first offset program verify level.
