PREDICTIVE PROGRAM VERIFICATION

Original Abstract Submitted
a memory array comprises a plurality of memory cells. control logic coupled to the memory array can cause a program voltage to be applied to a subset of the plurality of memory cells to be programmed to a specified logical level, where the specified logical level is associated with a group of logical levels. the control logic can cause a first program verify voltage associated with the group of logical levels to be applied to the memory cells. the control logic can decrement a count associated with the group of logical levels, where the count indicates a number of remaining program voltages to be applied for programming the subset of memory cells to a logical level of the predefined group of logical levels and terminate the program operation for the subset of plurality of memory cells responsive to determine that the count falls below a threshold value.
