Abstract:
Methods of operating a memory include boosting a channel voltage of a memory cell selected for programming to a particular voltage level for a particular programming pulse, boosting the channel voltage of the memory cell selected for programming to a second voltage level, greater than the particular voltage level, for a subsequent programming pulse, and boosting the channel voltage of the memory cell selected for programming to a third voltage level, greater than the second voltage level, for a next subsequent programming pulse.
