ABSTRACT:
A method for programming a memory cell is provided that includes detecting a program command at the memory device and detecting an external voltage applied to the memory device that exceeds a predetermined value. The method includes, in response to the program command and the detected external voltage, applying an internally generated programming voltage to a control gate of the memory cell. Applying a voltage pulse to a drain of the memory cell while the control gate is at the internally generated programming voltage is also included in the method.
