Abstract

Systems, apparatus and methods are provided for temperature assisted non-volatile storage device management in a non-volatile storage system. In one embodiment, a non-volatile storage system may comprise a temperature sensor, a non-volatile storage device and a processor. The processor may be configured to obtain a read-out from the temperature sensor, generate a predicted real-time on-die temperature for the non-volatile storage device based on the read-out, generate an estimated threshold voltage for reading data stored in the non-volatile storage device based on the predicted real-time on-die temperature and conduct a local sweep of a reference voltage using the estimated threshold voltage as a starting point to obtain a final read reference voltage with a minimum read bit error rate.
