Disclosed is a non-volatile memory device and a method of erasing the non-volatile memory device. An erase voltage is simultaneously applied to a plurality of sectors contained in the non-volatile memory device. Then, erase validation is sequentially performed for each of the plurality sectors and results of the erase validation are stored in a plurality of pass information registers. According to the results stored in the pass information registers, sectors which were not successfully erased are simultaneously re-erased and then sequentially re-validated until no such “failed sectors” remain in the non-volatile memory device. Upon eliminating the “failed sectors” from the non-volatile memory device, a post-program operation is sequentially performed on each of the plurality of sectors.

Disclosed is a non-volatile memory device and a method of programming the same. The non-volatile memory device comprises a plurality of memory cells that are programmed by supplying first and second program voltages thereto. In cases where the second program voltage rises above a predetermined detection voltage, the first program voltage is prevented from being supplied to the memory cell until the second program voltage falls below the detection voltage.

摘要:
Methods of operating a charge trap nonvolatile memory device include operations to erase a first string of nonvolatile memory cells by selectively erasing a first plurality of nonvolatile memory cells in the first string and then selectively erasing a second plurality of nonvolatile memory cells in the first string, which may be interleaved with the first plurality of nonvolatile memory cells. This operation to selectively erase the first plurality of nonvolatile memory cells may include erasing the first plurality of nonvolatile memory cells while simultaneously biasing the second plurality of nonvolatile memory cells in a blocking condition that inhibits erasure of the second plurality of nonvolatile memory cells. The operation to selectively erase the second plurality of nonvolatile memory cells may include erasing the second plurality of nonvolatile memory cells while simultaneously biasing the first plurality of nonvolatile memory cells in a blocking condition that inhibits erasure of the first plurality of nonvolatile memory cells.
