SELECTIVE USE OF PROGRAMMING INHIBIT SCHEME FOR NONVOLATILE MEMORY

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To program a non-volatile memory system so as to reduce or prevent program disturbance.

SOLUTION: A plurality of program inhibit schemes are employed for a single non-volatile memory system. Program inhibit schemes are selected based on the word line being programmed. Certain program inhibit schemes minimize or eliminate program disturbance at select word lines in a preferred manner. The temperature of a memory system is detected before or during a programming operation. A program inhibit scheme can be selected based on the temperature of the system.
