A flash memory has multi-level cells (MLC) that can each store multiple bits per cell. Blocks of cells can be downgraded to fewer bits / cell when errors occur, or for storing critical data such as boot code. The bits from a single MLC are partitioned among multiple pages to improve error correctability using Error Correction Code (ECC). An upper reference voltage is generated by a voltage reference generator in response to calibration registers that can be programmed to alter the upper reference voltage. A series of decreasing references are generated from the upper reference voltage and are compared to a bit-line voltage. Compare results are translated by translation logic that generates read data and over- and under-programming signals. Downgraded cells use the same truth table but generate fewer read data bits. Noise margins are asymmetrically improved by using the same sub-states for reading downgraded and full-density MLC cells.

A method for preparing a rare-earth oxide dispersion strengthened fine-grained tungsten material, comprising: according to a condition that a mass percentage of rare-earth oxide is 0.1-2%, and the remaining composition is W, weighing soluble rare-earth salt and tungstic acid salt, and respectively preparing 50-100 g / L of rare-earth saline solution and 150-300 g / L of tungstic acid saline solution; adding a minor amount of alkali into the rare-earth salt to control the pH to be 7-8, adding an organic dispersing agent, and stirring to enable the rare-earth salt to form uniformly suspending R(OH)3 colloidal particles (R represents a rare-earth element); adding the tungstic acid saline solution into the R(OH)3 colloidal particles, adding a minor amount of acid to control the pH to be 6-7, adding the organic dispersing agent, stirring to enable the tungstic acid salt to form tungstic acid micro-particles, precipitating and coating the R(OH)3 colloidal particles with the R(OH)3 colloidal particles as a core, and forming coprecipitated coated colloidal particles; conducting spray drying on the coprecipitated coated colloidal particles to obtain a composite precursor powder of tungsten and rare-earth oxide; calcining, conducting thermal reduction via hydrogen, and preparing superfine nanometer tungsten powder having a particle size of 50-500 nm; and conducting normal high-temperature sintering after a general pressing forming. The high-performance fine-grained tungsten material dispersed and strengthened by a minor amount of rare-earth oxide prepared by the above method has a density approximate to full density (>=98.5%), and uniform and small tungsten grains having an average size of 5-10 [mu]m; in addition, rare-earth oxide particles having a particle size of 100 nm - 500 nm are uniformly distributed in a tungsten crystal or a crystal boundary.

A method of consolidating particulate materials into articles having combinations of properties not available by conventional processes by liquid phase sintering. These particulate materials are comprised of core particles individually coated with layers of a metal compound having a relatively higher fracture toughness than the core, such as WC or TaC. These coated particles include an outer layer comprised a metal, such as Co or Ni. The particles with these coatings are pressed to form an article and the article densified at pressures and temperatures where full density is achieved without the degradation of the material forming the core particle.

A method for the manufacture of a multilevel metal part, the method including the steps of: a) compacting agglomerated spherical metal powder to a green multilevel preform such that an open porosity exists, wherein the green multilevel preform fulfills the relation zg=zHVC·a, b) debinding the green preform, c) sintering the green preform in an atmosphere including hydrogen, d) compacting the green preform with high velocity compaction to a density of at least 95% TD, e) subjecting the part to densification to a density of at least 99% TD. There is further provided a multilevel metal part. Advantages of the method include that it is possible to manufacture a multilevel part which is essentially uniform throughout the entire part and which has excellent tolerance, which at the same time has virtually full density and thereby having excellent mechanical properties as well as excellent corrosion properties.
