ABSTRACT:
A method of programming a non-volatile memory device includes receiving data to be programmed into memory cells of the memory device, programming the memory cells with the data, and selectively performing one of a plurality of program verify operations based on a current program loop number to determine whether the memory cells have been successfully programmed. For example, one of a wired-OR pass/fail check operation and a Y-scan pass/fail check operation may be performed according to the current program loop number. Related methods and devices are also discussed.
