Abstract:
Methods of operating a memory include applying a programming pulse having a particular voltage level to a selected access line connected to a plurality of memory cells selected for programming during a programming operation, concurrently enabling for programming each memory cell of the plurality of memory cells selected for programming while applying the programming pulse, applying a subsequent programming pulse having a plurality of different voltage levels to the selected access line, and, for each group of memory cells of a plurality of groups of memory cells of the plurality of memory cells selected for programming, enabling that group of memory cells for programming while the subsequent programming pulse has a corresponding voltage level of the plurality of different voltage levels.

Claim (Index 11):
The method of  claim 7 , wherein the programming pulse is a first programming pulse, and further comprising applying a second programming pulse, after the first programming pulse and prior to the subsequent programming pulse, having a voltage level higher than the particular voltage level of the first programming pulse to the selected access line while the memory cells of at least the particular group of memory cells are enabled for programming, and determining that at least one memory cell of the particular group of memory cells has a negative threshold voltages prior to applying the second programming pulse.
