TRACKING RC TIME CONSTANT BY WORDLINE IN MEMORY DEVICES

A memory device includes a memory array comprising a plurality of wordlines, and control logic, operatively coupled with the memory array. The control logic causes a measurement programming pulse to be sequentially applied to each of the plurality of wordlines of the memory array and determines respective threshold voltages stored in a number of memory cells associated with each of the plurality of wordlines. The control logic further determines a difference in the respective threshold voltages based on a location of the number of memory cells within each wordline and determines a respective resistance-capacitance (RC) time constant for each of the plurality of wordlines in view of the difference in the respective threshold voltages.
