Abstract

See full text

Programming a multilevel cell (MLC) nonvolatile (NV) media can be performed with internal buffer reuse to reduce the need for external buffering. The internal buffer is on the same die as the NV media to be programmed, along with a volatile memory to store data to program. The internal buffer is to read and program data for the NV media. Programming of the NV media includes staging first partial pages in the buffer for program, reading second partial pages from the NV media to the volatile memory, storing second partial pages in the buffer, and programming the NV media with the first partial pages and the second partial pages.
