Abstract
A method includes storing data in a memory that includes multiple analog memory cells. After storing the data, an interference caused by a first group of the analog memory cells to a second group of the analog memory cells is estimated. The data stored in the first group is reconstructed based on the estimated interference caused by the first group to the second group.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- storing data in a memory that includes multiple analog memory cells;
- after storing the data, estimating an interference caused by a first group of the analog memory cells to a second group of the analog memory cells;
- and
- reconstructing the data stored in the first group based on the estimated interference caused by the first group to the second group.

Apparatus, comprising:
- an interface for communicating with a memory that includes multiple analog memory cells;
- and
- storage circuitry, which is configured to store data in the analog memory cells of the memory, to estimate, after storing the data, an interference caused by a first group of the analog memory cells to a second group of the analog memory cells, and to reconstruct the data stored in the first group based on the estimated interference caused by the first group to the second group.
