Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and devices for write booster buffer and hibernate are described. The memory system may initiate a first operation to enter a first power mode having a lower power consumption than a second power mode. In some cases, the memory system may determine whether a quantity of data stored in a buffer of single-level cells associated with write booster information satisfies a threshold based on initiating the first operation. The memory system may determine whether to perform a second operation to transfer the quantity of data stored in the buffer of single-level cells to a portion of memory comprising multiple level cells based on determining whether the quantity of data satisfies the threshold. The memory system may enter the first power mode based on determining to perform the second operation to transfer the quantity of data from the buffer to the portion of memory.
