Publication number: 20240071482Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for mixed lockout verify. In a first programming phase, prior to a pre-determined data state completing verification, a no-lockout program verify is performed. After the pre-determined data state has completed verification, a lockout program verify is performed. The no-lockout verify may include charging all bit lines associated with the group to a sensing voltage to perform. The lockout verify may include selectively charging to the sensing voltage only bit lines associated with memory cells in the group to be verified. Bit lines associated with memory cells in the group that are not to be verified may be grounded to perform the lockout verify. The lockout verify saves considerable current and/or power.
