摘要:
Disclosed is a flash EEPROM cell needing only a 5 volt external source using an on-chip voltage multiplier circuit to provide high voltages necessary to effect Fowler-Nordheim tunneling during both the program and erase modes. Properties of dielectric layers between a floating gate and a control gate and between the floating gate and a drain region differ to facilitate programming and erasing of the floating gate. Also disclosed is a method for producing a flash EEPROM cell by forming the insulative layer between a floating gate and a control gate to have a capacitance lower than the capacitance of the insulating layer between the floating gate and a drain region.

摘要:
An integrated circuit (IC) comprises a memory module that stores at least one of data and code. A memory repair database stores data relating to defective memory addresses. A memory control module detects defective memory locations in the memory module, locates redundant memory elements in the memory module, and stores information that associates memory addresses of the defective memory locations with the redundant memory elements in the memory repair database. Storing said information includes electrically altering at least one of a plurality of electrical fuses. A redundant memory decoder module receives the information and physically remaps the memory addresses to the redundant memory locations.
