Abstract

A memory circuit includes a memory cell, a first program driver, a second program driver, and a sensing amplifier. A method for operating the memory circuit includes, during a program operation of the memory cell, providing a program voltage to the memory cell, enabling the first program driver to drive the first local bit line to be at a low voltage, enabling the second program driver, disabling the first program driver, and enabling the sensing amplifier to verify whether the first memory cell has been programmed or not. The second program driver has a weaker driving ability than the first program driver.
