Abstract

A memory device includes a main array comprising main memory cells; a redundancy array comprising redundancy memory cells; and write circuitry configured to perform a first programming operation on a main memory cell, to detect whether a current of the main memory cell exceeds a predefined current threshold during the first programming operation, and to disable a second programming operation for a redundancy memory cell if the current of the main memory cell exceeds the predefined current threshold during the first programming operation.
