Abstract

A method for operating a memory system comprises receiving a write request associate with data, decoding an address of the write request, receiving thermal data indicating a temperature at the address of the write request, determining whether the temperature is above a threshold temperature, and writing the data to the address responsive to determining that the temperature is not above the threshold temperature.
