Abstract
A first error rate based on a first read operation performed on a memory device is obtained. An individual data unit of the memory device that satisfies a first threshold criterion associated with a defect candidate is determined. A defect verification operation on the individual data unit to obtain a second error rate is performed. The individual data unit that satisfies a second threshold criterion associated with a defect is determined.
