  • Patent number: 9824759
    Abstract: In a method of programming a non-volatile memory device, a first voltage is applied to a selected memory cell for programming, and a second voltage is applied to a non-selected memory cell. Before the second voltage rises to a predetermined voltage level, which is less than a program voltage level, the first voltage is greater than the second voltage or the second voltage is maintained at greater than a ground voltage level. Related non-volatile memory devices and memory systems are also discussed.
