Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed, comprising a memory device comprising multiple groups of memory cells, the groups comprising a first group of memory cells and a second group of memory cells configured to store information at a same bit capacity per memory cell, and a processing device operably coupled to the memory device, the processing device configured to adjust a scan event threshold for one of the first or second groups of memory cells to a threshold less than a target scan event threshold for the first and second groups of memory cells to distribute scan events in time on the memory device.
