US Patent 11322211 Memory devices having a differential storage device

Memory devices might include a controller for access of an array of memory cells and a differential storage device comprising a pair of gate-connected non-volatile memory cells, wherein the controller is configured to cause the memory device to obtain information indicative of a data value stored in a particular memory cell of the array of memory cells, program additional data to the particular memory cell, determine if a power loss to the memory device is indicated while programming the additional data to the particular memory cell, and, if a power loss to the memory device is indicated, selectively program one memory cell of the pair of gate-connected non-volatile memory cells responsive to the information indicative of the data value stored in the particular memory cell.
