Abstract

The memory device that includes a plurality of memory cells that are arranged in a plurality of word lines. A controller is in electrical communication with the plurality of memory cells. During programming, the controller detects a temperature of the memory device. The controller then programs the memory cells of a selected word line of the plurality of word lines in a plurality of program loops until programming is completed or until the plurality of program loops is greater than a maximum number of program loops. The maximum number of program loops is dependent on the temperature that is detected.
