Abstract

An apparatus includes control circuits configured to connect to a plurality of non-volatile memory cells. The control circuits are configured to receive a read command directed to at least one logical page of data during a program operation to store the at least one logical page of data in a plurality of non-volatile memory cells. The control circuits are further configured to stop the program operation at an intermediate stage of programming, read the plurality of non-volatile memory cells at the intermediate stage to obtain first partial data of at least one logical page and obtain the at least one logical page of data by combining the first partial data with second partial data of the at least one logical page stored in data latches.
