Management of programming mode transitions to accommodate a constant size of data transfer between a host system and a memory sub-system

A method, comprising:

• communicating, by a device having a plurality of media units, with a host system to write data from the host system into the media units;
• and
• managing, by the device, programming of pages in the media units to accommodate a predetermined characteristics of data transfer between the device and the host system,
• wherein the programming of the pages in the media units includes multi-pass programming of the pages in the media units;
• wherein the multi-pass programming includes a plurality of atomic programming operations;
• and the managing includes managing transitions between modes of programming a memory cell in the atomic programming operations.

A computing system, comprising:

• a device having a plurality of media units;
• and
• a host system connected to the device to write data into the device;
• wherein the device is configured to manage programming of pages in the media units to accommodate a constant rate of data transfer between the device and the host system in writing the data into the device;
• wherein the programming of the pages in the media units includes multi-pass programming of the pages in the media units via a plurality of atomic programming operations, including a first atomic programming of a single data page of a predetermined size in the media units and a second atomic programming of two data pages each having the predetermined size in the media units.
