Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatus are provided for thermal regulation of a non-volatile memory IC. The systems and apparatus may include a thermal sensor on a memory IC; and a heating element coupled to the thermal sensor and adapted to heat the memory IC in response to a signal from the thermal sensor. The methods may include sensing a temperature of a memory IC using an integrated thermal sensor on the memory IC and heating the memory IC, using an integrated heating element operatively coupled to the thermal sensor, if the sensed temperature is below a threshold temperature.
