摘要： A flash-EEPROM memory array presenting a NOR architecture wherein the memory cells, organized in rows and columns and having drain regions connected to respective bit lines, source regions connected to a common source line, and control gate regions connected to respective word lines, present an asymmetrical structure wherein one of the source and drain regions presents a highly resistive portion to permit programming and erasing of the cells at different regions. The array includes bias transistors arranged in a row and each connected between a respective bit line and the common source line, for maintaining at the same potential the drain and source regions of the cells connected to the nonaddressed bit lines during programming, and so preventing spurious writing.

摘要： A memory cell reading circuit has a reference cell bit line and a matrix cell bit line connected to a supply voltage through respective loads and are furthermore connected by normally-off equalization transistors which are enabled by a first clock signal. The bit lines are further connected by normally-off resistive equalization transistors whose resistance is significant in conducting conditions. The equalization transistors are enabled by a first clock signal and the resistive equalization transistors are enabled by a second clock signal which has a duration that extends longer than the first clock signal. The memory cell reading circuit decreases the "read" time required for a memory cell, such as an EPROM cell, as compared to reading circuits previously used.

摘要： A method of avoiding disturbance during the step of programming and erasing an electrically programmable, semiconductor integrated non-volatile memory device which includes a matrix of memory cells divided into sectors and programmable in a byte mode is disclosed. An operation of verification of the contents of the byte to be programmed, to be carried out for each individual bit, is provided even before the first program pulse is applied. The method also provides for the parallel erasing of several sectors during an erase step, and a verification of the erase step for each sector in the matrix. If the verification shows that a sector has been erased, the sector is applied no further erase pulses.
