Patent 10446242 was granted and assigned to Western Digital on October, 2019 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A device includes a memory and a controller coupled to the memory. The controller is configured to determine a temperature-based value of a search parameter in response to detecting that an error rate of a codeword read from the memory exceeds a threshold error rate. The controller is further configured to iteratively modify one or more memory access parameters associated with reducing temperature-dependent threshold voltage variation and to re-read the codeword using the modified one or more memory access parameters.
