Abstract:
Methods of operating a memory, and apparatus configured to perform similar methods, include determining a voltage level of a stepped sense operation that activates a memory cell of the memory during a programming operation for the memory cell, and determining a voltage level of a ramped sense operation that activates the memory cell during a read operation for the memory cell.
