Abstract
A method of verifying the programming of a plurality of memory cells in a data storage system includes performing a setup operation including settling of bit lines associated with the subset of memory cells; performing a sensing operation including subjecting the settled bit lines to a verify voltage signal; and performing first and second latching operations identifying memory cells of the subset of memory cells having threshold voltages that meet first and second verify reference voltages, where the first and second latching operations are part of the same program verify operation with no setup time between them.
