A verify failbit count (VFC) circuit includes a counter circuit and a transcoder circuit. The counter circuit includes a counter. The counter is configured to count one or more fail bits based on results of a verification operation of a memory device to obtain a count result in unary format. The transcoder circuit includes a transcoder coupled to the counter. The transcoder is configured to transcode the count result in unary format to a transcoded result in binary format.
