Abstract
Methods of operating a memory include increasing a voltage applied to a first access line from a first voltage to a second voltage higher than the first voltage while applying the first voltage to a second access line, the first access line coupled to a target memory cell of the programming operation and an unselected memory cell not targeted for the programming operation, and the second access line coupled to memory cells not targeted for the programming operation. After increasing the voltage applied to the first access line, increasing the voltage applied to the first access line from the second voltage to a third voltage higher than the second voltage and increasing a voltage applied to the second access line from the first voltage to a fourth voltage higher than the first voltage and lower than the third voltage.
