Abstract:
Disclosed is a nonvolatile memory device, which includes a memory cell array including cell strings, a row decoder connected with a ground selection transistor of each of the cell strings through a ground selection line, connected with memory cells of each of the cell strings through word lines, and connected with a string selection transistor of each of the cell strings through a string selection line, and a page buffer connected with the cell strings through bit lines. In a first period of a check operation, the page buffer applies a first bias voltage to the bit lines, and the row decoder applies a turn-off voltage to the ground selection line, a turn-on voltage to the string selection line, and a first check voltage to the word lines. In a second period of the check operation, the page buffer senses first changes of voltages of the bit lines.
Abstract:
A nonvolatile memory device includes a peripheral circuit region and a memory cell region vertically connected with the peripheral circuit region, the peripheral circuit region including at least one first metal pad, and the memory cell region including at least one second metal pad directly connected with the at least one first metal pad. A method of programming the nonvolatile memory device incudes: receiving a programming command, data for a plurality of pages, and an address corresponding to a selected word-line; programming the data for one of the pages to an unselected word-line; reading data of a previously programmed page from the selected word-line; and programming the data for the remaining pages and the data of the previously programmed page to the selected word-line.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a program method and a nonvolatile memory device. The method includes receiving program data to be programmed in memory cells; reading the memory cells to judge an erase state and at least one program state; performing a state read operation in which the at least one program state is read using a plurality of state read voltages; and programming the program data in the memory cells using a plurality of verification voltages having different levels according to a result of the state read operation. Also disclosed are methods using a plurality of verification voltages selected based on factors which may affect a threshold voltage shift or other characteristic representing the data of a memory cell after programming.
