1. A memory device comprising:
a memory block;
a peripheral circuit configured to increase a threshold voltage of memory cells selected among memory cells included in the memory block according to logic data, detect low-level cells having a threshold voltage higher than a reference voltage among memory cells having a threshold voltage lower than a verify voltage at a first time within a verify time set according the number of bits included in the logic data, and detect high-level cells having a threshold voltage higher than the verify voltage at a second time after the first time; and
a control circuit configured to control the peripheral circuit in response to a command.
