    摘要： Flash memory array systems and methods are disclosed for producing a regulated boosted word line voltage for read operations. The system comprises a multi-stage voltage boost circuit operable to receive a supply voltage and one or more output signals from a supply voltage detection circuit to generate the boosted word line voltage having a value greater than the supply voltage. The voltage boost circuit comprises a precharge circuit and a plurality of boost cells connected to a common node of the boosted word line, and a timing control circuit. The stages of the plurality of boost cells are coupled in series for charge sharing between the stages, and couple a predetermined number of boost cells to the boosted word line common node to provide an intermediate voltage to the boosted word line during the pre-boost timing, thereby anticipating a final boosted word line voltage provided during the boost timing. The voltage boost circuit is operable to receive the one or more output signals from the supply voltage detection circuit and alter a boost gain of the multi-stage voltage boost circuit based on the one or more output signals, thereby causing the boosted word line voltage to be substantially independent of the supply voltage value.

    摘要： In a method and system for detecting defective material surrounding a flash memory cell, stressing voltage is applied between a control gate and a well of the flash memory cell. A stress recovery process is then performed on the flash memory cell. Any short circuit, formed through the material between the control gate and at least one of drain and source bit line junctions of the flash memory cell, is detected. The material surrounding the flash memory cell may be an inter-level dielectric material. The present invention may be applied to an array of flash memory cells comprising a flash memory device during testing of the flash memory device before being shipped to the customer.

    摘要： In a method of reading a memory cell of a memory cell array, electrical potentials are applied to a conductive structure connected to the drain, a conductive structure connected to the source, and the gate of the transistor of a cell to be read. Electrical potential are also applied to a conductive structure connected to the drain, a conductive structure connected to the source, and the gate of the transistor of a reference cell, providing current through the reference cell. The level of resistance to current through the reference cell is chosen by selecting the level of resistance in the conductive structure connected to the source of the transistor of the reference cell.
