Abstract
A program circuit may two-dimensionally program data into cells by applying different selected bit line or channel voltages to different bit lines or channels located in different bit line zones of a block during a program operation. The block may be further separated or divided into word line zones. The program circuit may adjust the different bit line or channel voltages as it programs in different word line zones of the block. In accordance with the two-dimensional programming, the program circuit may perform single-pulse program-only SLC program operations.
