    • A method and circuits, in a non-volatile memory system such as EPROM, for limiting bit line current during programming that includes biasing a driving transistor to mirror a maximum desired current into the driving transistor from a mirroring transistor connected to a controlled current source. This technique is useful, for example, during hot electron programming of a floating gate memory cell to limit bit line current caused by snap back of the cell through which a relatively high current is passed. In a preferred embodiment, the state of a cell is monitored while being programmed by comparing the voltage of the bit line with a reference voltage that is developed in a circuit containing a replica of the driving transistor. Since characteristics of the driving and reference transistors are the same from wafer to wafer, or batch to batch, the reference voltage varies to compensate for variations in characteristics of the driving transistor among integrated circuit chips from different wafers and manufacturing batches.
    • 在诸如EPROM的非易失性存储器系统中的方法和电路,用于限制编程期间的位线电流,其包括偏置驱动晶体管以从连接到受控电流源的镜像晶体管镜像到驱动晶体管中的最大期望电流。 该技术例如在浮动栅极存储器单元的热电子编程期间是有用的,以限制通过相对高的电流通过的单元的快速反应引起的位线电流。 在优选实施例中,通过将位线的电压与在包含驱动晶体管的复制品的电路中产生的参考电压进行比较来编程监视单元的状态。 由于驱动和参考晶体管的特性从晶圆到晶圆或批次相同,所以参考电压变化以补偿来自不同晶片和制造批次的集成电路芯片之间的驱动晶体管的特性的变化。
