Abstract
A memory device includes an array of memory cells columns and rows, word lines respectively coupled to rows of the memory cells, bit lines respectively coupled to the columns of the memory cells, and a peripheral circuit coupled to the array of memory cells through the bit and word lines and including page buffer circuits respectively coupled to the bit lines. Each page buffer circuit includes one cache storage unit configured to, in programming a select row based on a current data page, sequentially store each of N bits of the current data page and each of the N bits of a next data page, N−1 data storage units each configured to, in programming the select row based on the current data page, store a respective one of the N bits of the current data page and a respective one of the N bits of the next data page in a time division manner, and a multipurpose storage unit configured to, in programming the select row based on the current data page, store at least one of the N bits of the current data page.
