Abstract:
An example apparatus includes a memory comprising a plurality of managed units corresponding to respective groups of resistance variable memory cells and a controller coupled to the memory. The controller is configured to cause performance of a cleaning operation on a selected group of the memory cells and generation of error correction code (ECC) parity data. The controller may be further configured to cause performance of a write operation on the selected group of cells to write an inverted state of at least one data value to the selected group of cells and write an inverted state of at least one of the ECC parity data to the selected group of cells.
