    摘要: A non-volatile storage device in which current sensing is performed for a non-volatile storage element with a negative threshold voltage. A control gate read voltage is applied to a selected word line of a non-volatile storage element, and source and p-well voltages are applied to a source and a p-well, respectively, associated with the non-volatile storage element. The source and p-well voltages exceed the control gate read voltage so that a positive control gate read voltage can be used. There is no need for a negative charge pump to apply a negative word line voltage even for sensing a negative threshold voltage. A programming condition of the non-volatile storage element is determined by sensing a voltage drop which is tied to a fixed current which flows in a NAND string of the non-volatile storage element.

    摘要: A non-volatile storage device in which current sensing is performed for a non-volatile storage element. A voltage is applied to a selected word line of the first non-volatile storage element, and source and p-well voltages are applied to a source and a p-well, respectively, associated with the non-volatile storage element. The source and p-well voltages are regulated at respective positive DC levels to avoid a ground bounce, or voltage fluctuation, which would occur if the source voltage at least was regulated at a ground voltage. A programming condition of the non-volatile storage element is determined by sensing a current in a NAND string of the non-volatile storage element. The sensing can occur quickly since there is no delay in waiting for the ground bounce to settle.

    摘要: A source line bias error caused by a voltage drop in a source line of a non-volatile memory device during a read or verify operation is addressed. In one approach, a body bias is applied to a substrate of the non-volatile memory device by coupling the substrate to a source voltage or a voltage which is a function of the source voltage. In another approach, a control gate voltage and/or drain voltage, e.g., bit line voltage, are compensated by referencing them to a voltage which is based on the source voltage instead of to ground. Various combinations of these approaches can be used as well. During other operations, such as programming, erase-verify and sensing of negative threshold voltages, the source line bias error is not present, so there is no need for a bias or compensation. A forward body bias can also be compensated.
