A method for programming a MLC memory is provided. The MLC memory has a number of bits, and each bit has a number of programmed states. Each programmed state has a first PV level. The method comprises (a) programming the bits of the memory having a Vt level lower than the PV level of a targeted programmed state into programmed bits by using a Vd bias BL; (b) ending this method if each bit of the memory has a Vt level not lower than the PV level of the targeted programmed state, otherwise, continuing the step (c); and (c) setting BL=BL+K1 and repeating the step (a) if each of the programmed bits has a Vt level lower than the PV level, while setting BL=BL-K2, and repeating the step (a) if at least one of the programmed bits has a Vt level not lower than the PV level.
