Abstract
The memory device includes sensing circuitry that senses data in the memory cells of a selected word line. If the memory device is in the first operating mode, the sensing circuitry senses the selected word line with a first sensing process that includes applying a first voltage to a source side of at least one NAND string and ramping at least one voltage applied to the memory block to a target voltage over a first duration. If the memory device is in the second operating mode, the sensing circuitry senses the selected word line with a second sensing process that includes applying a second voltage to the source side of at least one NAND string and ramping the at least one voltage applied to the memory block to the target voltage over a second duration that is greater than or equal to the first duration.
