Estimating the term…
A non-volatile memory includes a plurality of cells each individually capable of storing multiple bits of data including bits of multiple physical pages. A controller of the non-volatile memory issues a command to perform a programming pass for a physical page among the multiple physical pages. The controller determines whether or not the programming pass took less than a minimum threshold time and no program fail status indication was received. Based on determining the programming pass took less than a minimum threshold time and no program fail status indication was received, the controller detects an under-programming error and performs mitigation for the detected under-programming error.
A method of controlling a non-volatile memory including a plurality of cells each individually capable of storing multiple bits of data including bits of multiple physical pages, the method comprising:
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage device having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions being executable by a controller of a non-volatile memory including a plurality of cells each individually capable of storing multiple bits of data including bits of multiple physical pages including at least a first page and a second page, wherein, when executed, the program instructions cause the controller to perform:
