Multi-bit programming apparatuses and/or methods are provided. A multi-bit programming apparatus may include: a first control unit that allocates any one of 2N threshold voltage states to the N-bit data; a second control unit that spaces, by any one of a first interval and a second interval, adjacent threshold voltage states of the 2N threshold voltage states; and a programming unit that programs the N-bit data by generating, in each of the at least one multi-bit cell, a distribution state corresponding to the allocated threshold voltage state. The multi-bit programming apparatus can reduce an error rate when reading data.

Example embodiments may provide a memory device and memory data reading method. The memory device according to example embodiments may include a multi-bit cell array, an error detector which may read a first data page from a memory page in the multi-bit cell array and may detect an error-bit of the first data page, and an estimator which may identify a multi-bit cell where the error-bit is stored and may estimate data stored in the identified multi-bit cell among data of a second data page. Therefore, the memory device and memory data reading method may have an effect of reducing an error when reading data stored in the multi-bit cell and monitoring a state of the multi-bit cell without additional overhead.
