Abstract: A non-volatile storage system is disclosed that includes a plurality of blocks of non-volatile storage elements, a plurality of word lines connected to the blocks of non-volatile storage elements such that each word line is connected to adjacent blocks of non-volatile storage elements, a plurality of bit lines connected to the blocks of non-volatile storage elements, multiple sets of word lines drivers such that each set of word line drivers is positioned between two adjacent blocks for driving word lines connected to the two adjacent blocks, global data lines, local data lines in selective communication with the bit lines, one or more selection circuits that selectively connect the global data lines to selected local data lines and connect unselected local data lines to one or more unselected bit line signals and control circuitry in communication with the one or more selection circuits and the global data lines. The control circuitry concurrently programs non-volatile storage elements of two adjacent blocks by applying programming signals on word lines connected to the two adjacent blocks and applying programming signals on appropriate bit lines via the global data lines and the one or more selection circuits.

Abstract: Methods for operating a non-volatile memory that includes a plurality of memory arrays in which each memory array of the plurality of memory arrays may independently perform a SET operation, a RESET operation, or a read operation are described. The ability to independently SET or RESET memory arrays allows a SET operation to be performed on a first set of memory cells within a first memory array at the same time as a RESET operation is performed on a second set of memory cells within a second memory array. In some cases, the first memory array may be associated with a first memory bay and the second memory array may be associated with a second memory bay. Each memory bay may include a memory array, read/write circuits, and control circuitry for determining memory cell groupings and programming memory cells within the memory array based on the memory cell groupings.

Abstract: A non-volatile storage device comprises: a substrate; a monolithic three dimensional array of memory cells; word lines connected to the memory cells; global bit lines; vertical bit lines connected to the memory cells; and a plurality of double gated vertically oriented select devices. The double gated vertically oriented select devices are connected to the vertical bit lines and the global bit lines so that when the double gated vertically oriented select devices are activated the vertical bit lines are in communication with the global bit lines. Each double gated vertically oriented select device has two gates that are offset from each other with respect to distance to the substrate. Both gates for the double gated vertically oriented select device need be in an “on” condition for the double gated vertically oriented select devices to be activated.
