    摘要: Defects in element forming regions on which memory cells of a non-volatile memory are formed are to be diminished to reduce leakage current. End portions of element forming regions with non-volatile memory cells formed thereon are extended a length D by utilizing the region which underlies a dummy conductive film, whereby a stress induced from an insulating film which surrounds the element forming regions is concentrated on the extended region. As a result, defects do not extend up to the regions where memory cells are formed and therefore it is possible to reduce leakage current in the memory cells.

    摘要: A method for speeding up data writing and reducing power consumption by reducing the variation of the threshold voltage of each of non-volatile memory cells at data writing. When writing data in a memory cell, a voltage of about 8V is applied to the memory gate line, a voltage of about 5V is applied to the source line, a voltage of about 1.5V is applied to the selected gate line respectively. At that time, in the writing circuit, the writing pulse is 0, the writing latch output a High signal, and a NAND-circuit outputs a Low signal. And, a constant current of about 1 ìA flows in a constant current source transistor and the bit line is discharged by a constant current of about 1 ìA to flow a current in the memory cell.

    摘要: A charge storage layer interposed between a memory gate electrode and a semiconductor substrate is formed shorter than a gate length of the memory gate electrode or a length of insulating films so as to make the overlapping amount of the charge storage layer and a source region to be less than 40 nm. Therefore, in the write state, since the movement in the transverse direction of the electrons and the holes locally existing in the charge storage layer decreases, the variation of the threshold voltage when holding a high temperature can be reduced. In addition, the effective channel length is made to be 30 nm or less so as to reduce an apparent amount of holes so that coupling of the electrons with the holes in the charge storage layer decreases; therefore, the variation of the threshold voltage when holding at room temperature can be reduced.
