Abstract
A memory system and method for reducing peak current consumption. In one embodiment, a method is provided that is performed in a memory system comprising a memory with a plurality of blocks, wherein each block has a peak current consumption. In this method, a plurality of metablocks is created, wherein each metablock is created by grouping together blocks with complementary peak current consumption. Next, the metablocks are programmed. Because each of the metablocks has blocks with complementary peak current consumption, each of the metablocks has similar peak current consumption when programmed. Other embodiments are provided.
