Abstract
To reduce Icc spikes during the operation of a non-volatile memory device, different block decoding parameters can be used based on whether a block is open or closed. For blocks that are open or in other high Icc conditions, such as first read, the timing for the block decode control signals, the block decode voltage levels, or a combination of these can be used to lower Icc spikes.
