摘要:
An operating method of a nonvolatile memory, which includes a plurality of cell strings, each cell string having a plurality of memory cells and a string selection transistor stacked on a substrate, includes detecting threshold voltages of the string selection transistors of the plurality of cell strings; adjusting voltages to be supplied to the string selection transistors according to the detected threshold voltages; and applying the adjusted voltages to the string selection transistors to select or unselect the plurality of cell strings during a programming operation.
摘要:
In a method of programming a three-dimensional nonvolatile memory device, a program loop is executed at least one time, wherein the program loop includes a programming step for programming selected memory cells among the memory cells and a verifying step for verifying whether the selected memory cells are program-passed or not. In the programming the selected memory cells, a level of a voltage being applied to a common source line connected to the strings in common may be changed. Thus, in a program operation, power consumption which is needed to charge-discharge the common source line can be decreased while increasing boosting efficiency.

A method is provided for erasing a nonvolatile memory device, including multiple memory blocks formed in a direction perpendicular to a substrate, each memory block having multiple strings connected to a bit line. The method includes selecting a memory block to be erased using a power supply voltage; unselecting a remaining memory block, other than the selected memory block, using a negative voltage; setting a bias condition to reduce leakage currents of the unselected memory block; and performing an erase operation on the selected memory block.
摘要:
A method is provided for driving a nonvolatile memory device, including multiple strings, where each string is formed by penetrating plate-shaped word lines stacked on a substrate. The method includes configuring the word lines of a string in multiple zones based on zone configuration information, and applying zone voltages to the zones, respectively. The zone configuration information is varied according to a mode of operation.
