Abstract
Various embodiments comprise apparatuses and methods including a memory controller to control a non-volatile memory array. The memory controller includes a memory array interface coupled to the non-volatile memory array to perform reads and writes on the non-volatile memory array. An overwrite module is configured to write a desired bit value to a specific memory cell within the non-volatile memory array, after receiving the desired bit value and a logical address, regardless of an original value of the memory cell Additional apparatuses and methods are described.
