Abstract
In certain aspects, a memory device includes a memory string including a drain select gate (DSG) transistor, a plurality of memory cells, and a source select gate (SSG) transistor, and a peripheral circuit coupled to the memory string. The peripheral circuit is configured to in response to an interrupt during a program operation on a select memory cell of the plurality of memory cells, turn on at least one of the DSG transistor or the SSG transistor. The peripheral circuit is also configured to suspend the program operation after turning on the at least one of the DSG transistor or the SSG transistor.
