NAND field use erase plus defect detections

A method for detecting defects in a memory system includes receiving a command to perform a standard erase operation on at least one memory cell of the memory system. The method also includes performing a first defect detection operation on the at least one memory cell. The method also includes sett...

Zusammenfassung:A method for detecting defects in a memory system includes receiving a command to perform a standard erase operation on at least one memory cell of the memory system. The method also includes performing a first defect detection operation on the at least one memory cell. The method also includes setting, in response to the first defect detection operation detecting a defect, a defect status indicator. The method also includes performing the standard erase operation on the at least one memory cell. The method also includes performing a second defect detection operation on the at least one memory cell. The method also includes setting, in response to the second defect detection operation detecting a defect, the defect status indicator.
