Abstract

An apparatus includes a control circuit configured connect to non-volatile memory cells. The control circuit is configured to receive a read command directed to data stored in non-volatile memory cells of a first word line and determine that a second word line adjacent to the first word line is sanitized. The control circuit is further configured to select an adjusted read voltage for a read operation directed to the non-volatile memory cells of the first word line based on the determination.
