Abstract

A memory device may include a first set of word lines in a first zone and a second set of word lines in a second zone. When programming memory cells coupled to a first target word line of the first set of word lines, a first pass voltage may be applied to at least one word line of the first set of word lines. When programming memory cells coupled to a second target word line of the second set of word lines, a second pass voltage may be applied to at least one word line of the second set of word lines. The at least one word line of the first set of word lines and the at least one word line of the second set of word lines have been programmed. The second pass voltage may be higher than the first pass voltage.
