Systems and Methods to Avoid False Verify and False Read

摘要

In a nonvolatile NAND memory array, a NAND block may be falsely determined to be in an erased condition because of the effect of unwritten cells prior to the erase operation. Such cells may be programmed with dummy data prior to erase, or parameters used for a verify operation may be modified to compensate for such cells. Read operations may be similarly modified to compensate for unwritten cells.
