Abstract
Example memory devices, systems, and methods for reducing verify operation time in memory devices are disclosed. One example method includes performing, based on one of 2pieces of N-bits data, a first programming operation of the target memory cell to program the target memory cell into an intermediate threshold voltage range of a first set of 2−1 threshold voltage ranges where share a same verify voltage. A second programming operation of the target memory cell is performed, based on the one of 2pieces of N-bits data and the intermediate threshold voltage range to program the target memory cell into one of a second set of 2threshold voltage ranges where correspond to the 2pieces of N-bits data respectively, and corresponds to
