    Abstract: A non-volatile memory is described that utilizes a cache read mode of operation, where a next page of memory is being read/sensed from the memory array by the sense amplifiers while a previously read page of memory is being read from the memory I/O buffer, wherein the next page is user selected. This random cache read mode allows for a memory with a random page read capability, in which the address of the next page of data to be read is user selectable, which benefits from the low latency of a cache read mode of operation due to concurrent data sensing and data I/O.

    Abstract: A target memory cell of a memory device is programmed by applying a programming voltage to a word line that includes the target memory cell, determining whether the target memory cell is programmed, and increasing the programming voltage by a step voltage if it is determined that the target memory cell is not programmed. An initial programming voltage and the step voltage are each selectable after fabrication of the memory device.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed, such as those involving a flash memory device. One such method includes storing data on memory cells on a memory block including a plurality of word lines and a plurality of memory cells on the word lines. The word lines comprising one or more bottom edge word lines, one or more top edge word lines, and intermediate word lines between the bottom and top edge word lines. The data is stored first on memory cells on the intermediate word lines. Then, a remaining portion, if any, of the data is stored on memory cells on the bottom edge word lines and/or the top edge word lines. This method enhances the life of the flash memory by preventing a premature failure of memory cells on the bottom or top edge word lines, which can be more prone to failure.
