Abstract

A memory device to generate intelligent, proactive responses to a read command. For example, signal and noise characteristics of a group of memory cells in a memory device are measured to determine a read voltage. An action is identified based on evaluation of the quality of data retrievable using the read voltage from the group of memory cells. While a response indicating the action is provided responsive to the command, the memory device can initiate the action proactively before a subsequent command, following the response, is received.
