An apparatus includes a first bit line coupled to a first storage element and a second bit line coupled to a second storage element. A first bit line charging circuit is coupled to the first bit line and is configured to charge the first bit line to a first bias voltage of multiple bias voltages based on a first programming state. A second bit line charging circuit is coupled to the second bit line and is configured to charge the second bit line to a second bias voltage of the multiple bias voltages based on a second programming state. The second programming state is different than the first programming state.
