Abstract

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are generally directed to the accessing of data in a memory, such as but not limited to a flash memory array. In accordance with some embodiments, a transfer command is received to transfer selected data between a control module and a memory module. The transfer command specifies a target address in the memory module and a sense threshold vector associated with the selected data. The sense threshold vector in the received transfer command is used to sense a programmed state of at least one solid-state memory cell at the target address responsive to the received transfer command. The transfer command may be a read or write command.
