US Patent 11036415 Managing memory block calibration based on priority levels

A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, is for managing block calibration operations. The computer-implemented method includes: determining a type of calibration procedure to apply to a block of memory, and assigning the calibration type to the block. A calibration level to assign to the block is also determined, and thereafter the calibration level is assigned to the block. Moreover, the block is assigned to one of two or more calibration queues based on the calibration type and calibration level associated with the block. A different priority level is assigned to each of the calibration queues, and the priority levels determine an order in which blocks assigned to the calibration queues are calibrated.
