1. An operation method for a memory device, the operation method including:
selecting a selected word line from a plurality of word lines;
applying a program voltage to the selected word line; and
applying a pass voltage to a plurality of adjacent word lines adjacent to the selected word line,
wherein the pass voltage includes a first part and a second part,
a timing of the first part of the pass voltage is earlier than a timing of the second part of the pass voltage; and
a voltage of the first part of the pass voltage is higher than a voltage of the second part of the pass voltage,
wherein the voltage of the first part of the pass voltage is gradually increased until the pass voltage reaches a pass voltage maximum value, and the voltage of the second part of the pass voltage is gradually increased, wherein after a first predetermined pulse number or reaching a predetermined voltage, the voltage of the second part of the pass voltage is fixed.
