摘要： A first embodiment of a word line voltage boosting circuit for use with an array of non-volatile memory cells has a capacitor, having two ends, connected to the word line. One end of the capacitor is electrically connected to the word line. The other end of the capacitor is electrically connected to a first voltage source. The word line is also connected through a switch to a second source voltage source. A sequencing circuit activates the switch such that the word line is connected to the second voltage source, and the other end of the capacitor is not connected to the first voltage source. Then the sequencing circuit causes the switch to disconnect the word line from the second voltage source, and connect the second end of the capacitor to the first voltage source. The alternate switching of the connection boosts the voltage on the word line. In a second embodiment, a first word line is electrically connected to a first switch to a first voltage source. An adjacent word line, capacitively coupled to the first word line, is electrically connected to a second switch to a second voltage source. A sequencing circuit activates the first switch and the second switch such that the first word line is connected to the first voltage source, and the second word line is disconnected from the second voltage source. Then the sequencing circuit causes the first switch to disconnect the first word line from the first voltage source, and causes the second word line to be electrically connected to the second voltage source. The alternate switching of the connection boosts the voltage on the first word line, caused by its capacitive coupling to the second word line. A boosted voltage on the word line may be used to improve cycling and yield, where the memory cells of the array are of the floating gate type and erase through the mechanism of Fowler-Nordheim tunneling from the floating gate to a control gate which is connected to the word line.

摘要： A digital multilevel non-volatile memory includes a massive sensing system that includes a plurality of sense amplifiers disposed adjacent subarrays of memory cells. The sense amplifier includes a high speed load, a wide output range intermediate stage and a low impedance output driver. The high speed load provides high speed sensing. The wide output range provides a sensing margin at high speed on the comparison node. The low impedance output driver drives a heavy noisy load of a differential comparator. A precharge circuit coupled to the input and output of the sense amplifier increases the speed of sensing. A differential comparator has an architecture that includes analog bootstrap. A reference sense amplifier has the same architecture as the differential amplifier to reduce errors in offset. The reference differential amplifier also includes a signal multiplexing for detecting the contents of redundant cells and reference cells.

The semiconductor substrate has a second conductivity type. A gate electrode is insulated and spaced apart from the channel region of the first capacitor. The second capacitor is substantially identical to the first capacitor and is formed in the same semiconductor substrate. The gate electrode of the first capacitor is electrically connected to the first region of the second capacitor and the gate electrode of the second capacitor is electrically connected to the first region of the first capacitor. In this manner, the capacitors are connected in an anti-parallel configuration.
