Abstract: A random access memory array includes random access memory elements arranged in a rows and columns. The elements of each row have a word line and a write digit line and the elements of each column have a bit line and a write bit line. A first selection circuit/transistor for each row has a first source-drain path coupled in the write digit line and a gate terminal coupled to the word line. A second selection circuit/transistor for each column has a second source-drain path coupling in the write bit line and a gate terminal coupled to the bit line. A first write signal is applied to one word line to actuate the first selection circuit/transistor for the row corresponding to that one word line and cause a write current to flow through the first source-drain path of the actuated first selection circuit/transistor and the corresponding write digit line to write data into certain memory elements in that row. A second write signal is applied to one bit line to actuate the second selection circuit/transistor for the column corresponding to that one bit line and cause a write current to flow through the second source-drain path of the actuated second selection circuit/transistor and the corresponding write bit line to write data into at least one memory element in that column.

Abstract: A non-volatile memory architecture with a word-based organization includes one selection transistor per word. This selection transistor is used for the selection of the word by the source of the memory cells. In this way, the selection may be done directly by the ouput signals from the address decoders using low voltage. The switching of a high voltage to the gates and the drains of the memory cells is done independently of this selection. This enables the required number of high voltage switches to be reduced.

Abstract: A high voltage switching device includes a switching circuit for switching a high voltage to an output line and for providing a control signal. The high voltage switching device also includes a switching transistor connected to the switching circuit for switching a low voltage to the output line based upon the control signal. The output signal is controlled by a control circuit that sets up a control loop between the drop in the gate voltage level of the switching transistor and the voltage level of the output line that is controlled by the switching circuit.

Abstract: The invention relates to an edge transition detector, and a method of operating an edge transition detector. An integrated circuit includes an edge transition detector for producing an output signal at an output node in response to an input signal. The edge transition detector includes a switch coupled to the output node. The edge transition detector includes a logic device with a first input coupled to the input node and an output coupled to a control terminal of the switch to enable the switch to conduct, thereby effecting a transition of the output signal from a first logic level to a second logic level in response to the input signal. A feedback path is provided from the output node to a second input of the logic device to disable switch conductivity when the output signal completes the logic transition from the first logic level to the second logic level.
