Abstract:
A method is suggested for determining a state of a memory cell via a sense amplifier the method including applying a first signal to the sense amplifier; sensing a first response; determining a reference signal based on the first signal; sensing a second response based on a second signal that is determined based on the first signal; and determining the state of the memory cell based on the second response and the reference signal. Also, a memory device that is able to determine the state of the memory cell is provided.
Abstract:
A method for applying a magnetic shielding layer to a substrate is provided, wherein a first magnetic shielding layer is adhered to a first surface of the substrate. A first film layer is adhered to the first magnetic shielding layer and the first magnetic shielding layer is more adherent to the first surface than the film layer to the first magnetic shielding layer.
Abstract:
A method is suggested for processing a target memory, the method comprising the steps of (i) checking the target memory subsequent to an erase operation directed to the target memory; and (ii) replacing the target memory with a spare memory in case a defect is detected.
Abstract:
In an example, a multiplexer is provided. The multiplexer may include one or more first strings controlling access to source-lines of the memory, wherein a first string of the one or more first strings includes a first set of two high voltage transistors and a first plurality of low voltage transistors. The multiplexer may include one or more second strings controlling access to bit-lines of the memory, wherein a second string of the one or more second strings includes a second set of two high voltage transistors and a second plurality of low voltage transistors. A method for operating such multiplexer is provided.
