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 17):
A method of operating a memory, comprising:\n 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, wherein each voltage level of the plurality of different voltage levels occurs during a respective portion of a duration of the subsequent programming pulse; 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 during the respective portion of the duration of the subsequent programming pulse of a corresponding voltage level of the plurality of different voltage levels; wherein memory cells of the plurality of memory cells selected for programming and having a particular intended data state are members of more than one group of memory cells of the plurality of groups of memory cells; and wherein at least one group of memory cells of the plurality of groups of memory cells comprises a memory cell having the particular intended data state and a memory cell having a different intended data state.
