摘要： A multi-bit flash memory and a reading method thereof. Multiple reference memory cells for saving reserved data are provided to operate together with multiple data memory cells. Before the data memory cells are read, data stored in the reference memory cell is sensed based on a present reference current. Then, a value of a new reference current for reading the data memory cells is determined according to a difference between the sensed data and the reserved data.

摘要： A method for programming a MLC memory is provided. The MLC memory has a number of bits, and each bit has a number of programmed states. Each programmed state has a first PV level. The method comprises (a) programming the bits of the memory having a Vt level lower than the PV level of a targeted programmed state into programmed bits by using a Vd bias BL; (b) ending this method if each bit of the memory has a Vt level not lower than the PV level of the targeted programmed state, otherwise, continuing the step (c); and (c) setting BL=BL+K1 and repeating the step (a) if each of the programmed bits has a Vt level lower than the PV level, while setting BL=BL−K2, and repeating the step (a) if at least one of the programmed bits has a Vt level not lower than the PV level.

摘要： Methods for programming and program verification of a flash memory are described that ease the buried drain contact induced operation and increase the retention window. In a first aspect of the invention, a program operation method provides varying program biases which are applied to different groups of memory cells. The program biases can be supplied as drain bias voltages or gate bias voltages. The program biases vary depending on which group of memory cells is programmed. In one embodiment, a first drain voltage VD1 is applied to the first group of memory cells M0 and Mn. A second drain voltage VD2 is applied to the second group of memory cells M1 and Mn-1, where VD2=VD1+ΔVD. In a second aspect of the invention, a plurality of program verification voltage levels are selected to verify that the memory cells pass the program voltage levels.
