    摘要: A method for forming a tip is disclosed. A layer is formed overlying a substrate. A mask layer is formed overlying the layer. The mask is patterned to form a mask pattern comprising an inner portion and an outer portion, wherein the inner portion is surrounded by the outer portion. The layer uncovered by the mask pattern is treated to form a reaction mask, wherein at least one portion of the reaction mask connect to form a tip of the layer under the inner portion of the mask pattern.

    摘要: Voltage-dropping components are bypassed during testing of the erasing of a flash memory device thereby effectively lowering the applied erase voltage to the marginal level desired (VME). These voltage-dropping components may be a plurality of diode-connected NMOS transistors. If a plurality of diode-connected NMOS transistors are used, the voltage applied to the flash macro is reduced by m*Vt, where m is the number of bypassed diode connected NMOS transistors and Vt is the threshold voltage of the NMOS transistors. In normal operation, the voltage dropping components are placed in series with the charge pump, thereby returning the voltage applied to the flash macro to the normal level (VNE).
