Abstract
Methods and systems are provided where non-volatile solid state memory may include selected memory cells coupled to a selected word line and proxy memory cells coupled to a proxy word line. The selected memory cells may be non-adjacent to the proxy memory cells and be selected for a read operation. A read proxy voltage may be applied to the proxy word line when data is read from the selected memory cells. A read disturb may be determined based on a difference between a predetermined value stored in the proxy memory cells and a value read from the proxy memory cells.
