Abstract
A method for compensating a threshold voltage of a neighbor bit, are provided. The method includes the first step of arbitrating the word line voltages applied to bits demanded to be programmed, wherein the the word line voltages are arbitrated according to the threshold voltages of the neighbor bits adjacent to the bits. Next, the bits, to which a same word line voltage should be applied, in the memory cells are distributed to a group of bits with the same word line voltage. Then, the same word line voltage is applied to the bits of the group of bits with the same word line voltage.
