Abstract
Systems, methods and/or devices are used to adjust a read property for a memory portion of non-volatile memory. In one aspect, in response to receiving a program request, the device: detects a first temperature of the memory portion; and stores first temperature data corresponding to the detected first temperature. In response to receiving a read request, the device performs an adjustment determination, including: detecting a second temperature of the memory portion of the non-volatile memory, retrieving the stored first temperature data, and determining, in accordance with the detected second temperature and the retrieved first temperature data, whether to perform the read using an adjusted read property. In accordance with a determination to perform the read using the adjusted read property, the device performs a read on the memory portion using the adjusted read property.
