US Patent 11763911 On-chip-copy for integrated memory assembly

A non-volatile memory system comprises an integrated memory assembly in communication with a memory controller. The integrated memory assembly includes a memory die bonded to a control die. The control die includes one or more control circuits for controlling the operation of the memory die. The control circuits are configured to receive a request to copy data on the memory die, read codewords on the memory die in response to the request, decode the codewords to identify errors in the codewords, correcting the errors in the codewords, and program the codewords back into the memory die. In one embodiment, the codewords read are stored in the memory die as single bit per memory cell data and the codewords programmed back into the memory die after correcting errors are programmed as multiple bit per memory cell data.
