摘要: An integrated circuit device includes a two-dimensional array of ferroelectric memory cells in which plate lines within the array are grouped. The grouping of plate lines accommodates the use of larger plate line drivers, such as CMOS driver inverters. Each plate line group may include some but not all of the rows of memory cells and some but not all of the columns of memory cells within the array.

摘要: Non-volatile latch circuits, such as in memory cells and flip-flops, that are constructed for reliability screening. The non-volatile latch circuits each include ferroelectric capacitors coupled to storage nodes, for example at the outputs of cross-coupled inverters. Separate plate lines are connected to the ferroelectric capacitors of the complementary storage nodes. A time-zero test of the latch stability margin is performed by setting a logic state at the storage nodes, then programming the state into the ferroelectric capacitors by polarization. After power-down, the plate lines are biased with a differential voltage relative to one another, and the latch is then powered up to attempt recall of the programmed state. The differential voltage disturbs the recall, and provides a measure of the cell margin and its later-life reliability.

摘要: A ferroelectric memory with interleaved pairs of ferroelectric memory cells of the two-transistor, two-capacitor (2T2C) type. Each memory cell in a given pair is constructed as first and second portions, each portion including a transistor and a ferroelectric capacitor. Within each pair, a first portion of a second memory cell is physically located between the first and second portions of the first memory cell. As a result, complementary bit lines for adjacent columns are interleaved with one another. Each sense amplifier is associated with a multiplexer, so that the adjacent columns of the interleaved memory cells are supported by a single sense amplifier. Noise coupling among the bit lines is reduced, and the sense amplifiers can be placed along one side of the array, reducing the number of dummy cells required to eliminate edge cell effects.
