Abstract:
A system and method for managing program cycles in a multi-layer memory are disclosed. The method includes a controller receiving a request to program data from a host and, in advance of programming data associated with the request, determining a program cycle for programming the data associated with the request. The programming cycle may be a set of a host data write programming operation and any maintenance programming operations on an amount of data already programmed in the plurality of memory layers that is necessary to provide free memory capacity for a subsequent request to program data from the host. The controller programs the data associated with the host request, and the amount of data to be programmed in maintenance operations, in predetermined programming units according to the determined program cycle.
