摘要: A memory device includes a voltage regulator, whose output provides a voltage supply for various other components of the memory device, including a command user interface. The memory device is placed into an ultra-deep power-down mode by providing to the memory device a software command, which causes the output of the voltage regulator to be disabled. To bring the memory device out of the ultra-deep power-down mode, a chip select signal is provided to the memory device, which includes a wake-up circuit that remains powered on even when the memory device is in the ultra-deep power-down mode. Receipt of the chip select signal while the memory device is in the ultra-deep power-down mode causes the output of the voltage regulator to be enabled, thereby providing power to the components that were completely powered down.

摘要: Systems and techniques for performing write operations on non-volatile memory are described. A described system includes a memory structure including non-volatile memory cells that are arranged on word lines and bit lines and a microcontroller that is communicatively coupled with the memory structure. The memory structure can include non-volatile memory cells that are arranged on word lines and bit lines. The microcontroller can be configured to receive data to write to the memory structure, write the data to the memory structure using a selected word line of the word lines, detect a failure to write the data, apply, based on the failure, a negative bias voltage to one or more unselected word lines of the word lines during a negative bias period, and write the data to the portion of the memory cells using the selected word line during the negative bias period.

摘要: A column redundancy system for a non-volatile memory includes a separate companion controller chip that includes a column redundancy RAM memory array for storing addresses of defective non-volatile memory cells. Column redundancy match logic provides a match output signal corresponding to a match of a particular user input address for the non-volatile memory with the address of a defective non-volatile memory cell, the collection of said addresses stored in the column redundancy RAM memory array. Column redundancy replacement logic, in response to a match output, dynamically substitutes correct data associated with a defective non-volatile memory cell into an I/O program or read data bit stream of the non-volatile memory chip.

摘要: A post-erase channel clearing procedure for double well, floating gate, non-volatile memory cells. The channel is cleared of charged particles coming from the floating gate after an erase operation in two steps. In the first step the charged particles are pushed into an upper substrate well below the floating gate but not allowed into a deeper well of opposite conductivity type relative to the upper well. After a brief time, T, the charged particles are pushed by a bias voltage into the deeper well from the upper well. This two step clearing procedure avoids device latchup that might occur otherwise.

摘要: A memory system incorporating redundancy utilizes a content addressable memory to monitor addresses during memory accesses. The content addressable memory provides a pointer to an alternate memory location when a previously determined faulty location is requested. Redundant memory cells are accessed by use of column redundancy information output from the content addressable memory. During a memory access cycle a register in the content addressable memory latches a memory address. The content addressable memory decodes the address and produces column redundancy information as an output. The column redundancy information is latched during a period complementary to the memory access cycle. By utilizing complementary memory access phases to latch memory addresses in contrast with a utilization of column redundancy information, a single set of registers may be used. Additionally, concurrent read and write operations are supported.
