    Abstract: Floating-gate field-effect transistors or memory cells formed in isolated wells are useful in the fabrication of non-volatile memory arrays and devices. A column of such floating-gate memory cells are associated with a well containing the source/drain regions for each memory cell in the column. These wells are isolated from source/drain regions of other columns of the array. Fowler-Nordheim tunneling can be used to program and erase such floating-gate memory cells either on an individual basis or on a bulk or block basis.

    Abstract: A flash memory cell comprises a gate, a drain, a source, a floating gate, and a control gate. The flash memory cell is capable of being programmed by inducing a voltage drop of between about four volts and six volts across a deep-depletion region by applying a first voltage to the gate, a second voltage to the drain, and a third voltage to the source. During a programming operation, the channel current is approximately zero, and the first voltage is ramped at a rate proportional to the injection current.

    Abstract: An operation to erase a nitride read only memory (NROM) memory block starts by erasing the memory block. An erase verify operation can then be performed to determine the success of the erase. If a read operation is performed and column current is detected, a high-efficiency recovery operation is performed. If the read operation is performed and column current is not detected, the erase operation has been successfully completed.
