ERROR DETECTION, DOCUMENTATION, AND CORRECTION IN A FLASH MEMORY DEVICE

摘要

A memory device has an error documentation memory array that is separate from the primary memory array. The error documentation memory array stores data relating to over-programmed bits in the primary array. When the over-programmed bits in the primary array are erased, the error documentation memory array is erased as well, deleting the documentation data relating to the over-programmed bits.
