Abstract
A memory device includes an array of memory cells configured as single-level cell memory and control logic operatively coupled with the array of memory cells. The control logic is to perform operations including: causing first data to be programmed to a plurality of memory cells of the array of memory cells, the first data including a first erase distribution programmed below an erase threshold voltage (Vt) level and a first voltage distribution programmed relative to a first Vt level; and causing, without erasing the plurality of memory cells, second data to be programmed to the plurality of memory cells, the second data including a second erase distribution programmed relative to the first Vt level and a second voltage distribution programmed relative to a second Vt level.
