Abstract

A high programming speed with a low-powerconsumption wrapped-select-gate poly-Si-oxide-nitride-oxidesilicon memory is successfully demonstrated using the novel dynamic threshold source-side-injection programming technique. The select gate embedded in such particular memory structure acts like a dynamic MOSFET resulting in programming current (IPGM) that can be enhanced in this DT mode, easily attaining a high programming speed of about 100 ns. It still doubles the memory density by achieving the 2-bit/cell operation with MLC under DT mode.
