    摘要: A flash EEPROM cell array is erased by applying a zero reference voltage to the bulk substrate of the cell, a relatively high negative voltage to the control gate of the cell and a relatively low positive voltage to the source region of the cell. Because of a relatively low reverse voltage developed between the source region of the cell and the bulk substrate, the generation of hot holes is inhibited and improved performance may be obtained. The source region is preferably single diffused rather than double-diffused so that the cell can occupy a minimum area for a given design rule. The low positive voltage applied to the source is preferably less than or equal to the voltage, V.sub.CC presented at a +5V chip power supply pin. This makes it possible for the +5V pin to directly supply source current during erasure.

    摘要: There is provided an improved method for eliminating of cycling-induced electron trapping in the tunneling oxide of flash EEPROM devices. A relatively low positive pulse voltage is applied to a source region of the EEPROM devices during an entire erase cycle. Simultaneously, a negative ramp voltage is applied to a control gate of the EEPROM devices during the entire erase cycle so as to accomplish an averaging tunneling field from the beginning of the erase cycle to the end of the erase cycle.
