Abstract
Described are systems and methods for providing power loss immunity in memory programming operations. An example memory device comprises: a memory array comprising a plurality of memory cells electrically coupled to a plurality of wordlines and a plurality of bitlines; and a controller coupled to the memory array, the controller to perform operations comprising: causing a programming pulse to be applied to to one or more wordlines of the memory array; responsive to determining that a threshold voltage of one or more memory cells of the memory array has reached a pre-program verify level, causing a first bias voltage level to be applied to a first subset of bitlines of the memory array and causing a second bias voltage level to be applied to a second subset of bitlines of the memory array.
