Abstract
Apparatus, systems, and methods to correct for threshold voltage drift in non-volatile memory devices are disclosed and described. In one example, a compensated demarcation voltage is generated by either a time-based drift compensation scheme or a disturb-based drift compensation scheme, and read and write operations to the non-volatile memory are carried out using the compensated voltage threshold.
