Abstract

Provided is a memory device. The memory device may include a voltage code controller configured to generate a voltage code that generates a program voltage and pass voltages based on a number of times a program loop is performed, and a voltage generator configured to generate the program voltage and the pass voltages in response to the voltage code, transmit the program voltage to a selected word line, and transmit the pass voltages to unselected word lines, wherein the voltage generator is configured to sequentially increase the pass voltage that is applied to the unselected word lines in order of proximity to the selected word line as the number of times a program loop is performed increases.
