Abstract
A method and system is disclosed for prohibiting program disturbance in a memory array device. The system comprises a bit-line decoder coupled to each bit-line of the memory array for providing a predetermined current diverting path, a biased resistance module placed on the bit-line of the flash memory array through which a pull-up current provided by a predetermined power supply is diverted by the bit-line decoder when a cell of the flash memory array connecting to the bit-line is programmed. The programming current of the cell of the flash memory array is stabilized due to the diverted pull-up current.
