Abstract

The present disclosure includes apparatuses, and methods for data state synchronization. An example apparatus includes performing a write operation to store a data pattern in a group of resistance variable memory cells corresponding to a selected managed unit having a first status, updating a status of the selected managed unit from the first status to a second status responsive to performing the write operation, and providing data state synchronization for a subsequent write operation performed on the group by placing all of the variable resistance memory cells of the group in a same state prior to performing the subsequent write operation to store another data pattern in the group of resistance variable memory cells.
