    Abstract: A method is for operating a memory device including a plurality of memory cells disposed in regions where a plurality of first signal lines and a plurality of second signal lines cross each other. The method includes applying an initial voltage to the plurality of first signal lines, floating the plurality of first signal lines to which the initial voltage is applied, applying a second inhibit voltage to the plurality of second signal lines, and increasing voltage levels of the plurality of first signal lines to a first inhibit voltage level via capacitive coupling between the plurality of first signal lines which are floated and the plurality of second signal lines to which the second inhibit voltage is applied.

    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory device includes a memory array having multiple nonvolatile memory cells, a first read circuit and a second read circuit. The first read circuit is configured to read first data from the memory array during a first read operation and to provide one or more protection signals indicating a victim period during the first read operation. The second read circuit is configured to read second data from the memory array during a second read operation and to provide one or more check signals indicating an aggressor period during the second read operation.

    Abstract: A method of operating a memory device includes determining a value of an operating current flowing through a selected first signal line, to which a selection voltage is applied, from among a plurality of first signal lines; dividing an array of memory cells into n blocks, n being an integer greater than 1, based on the value of the operating current; and applying inhibit voltages having different voltage levels corresponding to the n blocks to unselected ones of second signal lines included in the n blocks. Each of the unselected second signal lines is a pathway through which leakage current may potentially flow due to the operating current flowing through the selected first signal line and a memory cell addressed by the unselected second signal line and the selected first signal line.
