Abstract:
Program disturb is reduced in a non-volatile storage system by programming storage elements on a selected word line WLn in separate groups, according to the state of their WLn−1 neighbor storage element, and applying an optimal pass voltage to WLn−1 for each group. Initially, the states of the storage elements on WLn−1 are read. A program iteration includes multiple program pulses. A first program pulse is applied to WLn while a first pass voltage is applied to WLn−1, a first group of WLn storage elements is selected for programming, and a second group of WLn storage elements is inhibited. Next, a second program pulse is applied to WLn while a second pass voltage is applied to WLn−1, the second first group of WLn storage elements is selected for programming, and the first group of WLn storage elements is inhibited. A group can include one or more data states.
