ABSTRACT:
A NOR flash memory device and related programming method are disclosed. The programming method includes programming data in a memory cell and, during a program verification operation, controlling the supply of current from a sense amplifier to the memory cell in relation to the value of the programmed data. Wherein a program verification operation is indicated, current is provided from the sense amplifier to the memory cell. Where a program verification operation is not indicated, current is cut off from the sense amplifier.
