Abstract
Systems and methods to manage memory on a spin transfer torque magnetoresistive random-access memory (STT-MRAM) are provided. A particular method may include determining a performance characteristic using relationship information that relates a bit error rate to at least one of a programming pulse width, a temperature, a history-based predictive performance parameter, a coding scheme, and a voltage level also associated with a memory. The performance characteristic is stored and used to manage a write operation associated with the memory.
