Abstract

A method of programming a non-volatile memory includes executing at least two program loops on memory cells in a selected word line, generating a fail bit trend based on a result of executing each of the at least two program loops, predicting a plurality of program loops comprising an N program loop to be executed last on the memory cells, based on the generated fail bit trend, and changing, based on a result of predicting the plurality of program loops, a level of an N program voltage provided to the memory cells when the N program loop is executed.
