Abstract:
A memory circuit includes a memory array with multi-level cells that are each capable of storing M bits of data, where M is an integer greater than one. A module reads a state of one of the multi-level cells. The module performs at least one of a first erase operation and a first program operation on the one of the multi-level cells for the M bits of data during a first time period.
