摘要:
Provided in one example embodiment, a method of programming n bits of data to a semiconductor memory device may include outputting a first bit of data written in a memory cell from a first latch, storing the first bit of the data to a third latch, storing a second bit of the data to the first latch, outputting the second bit of the data from the first latch, storing the second bit of the data to the second latch, and writing the second bit of the data stored in the second latch to the memory cell with reference to a data storage state of the first bit of the data stored in the third latch.
摘要:
In one aspect, a semiconductor substrate is provided having a cell area and a peripheral circuit area, and a mask layer is formed over the cell area and the peripheral circuit area of the semiconductor substrate. A FinFET gate is fabricated by forming a first opening in the mask layer to expose a first gate region in the cell area of the semiconductor substrate, and then forming a FinFET gate electrode in the first opening using a damascene process. A MOSFET gate fabricated by forming a second opening in the mask layer to expose a second gate region in the peripheral circuit area of the semiconductor substrate, and then forming a MOSFET gate electrode in the second opening using a damascene process.
