Abstract
A method of operating a non-volatile memory device includes maintaining a write voltage at a predetermined voltage level for programming and/or erasing a memory cell of the non-volatile memory device during a time between execution of consecutive write operations. For example, the write voltage may be activated at the predetermined voltage level responsive to an initial write command, and discharge of the write voltage may be prevented responsive to a signal indicating consecutive write commands. Related devices are also discussed.
