Abstract

The invention discloses a negative voltage slope control circuit for controlling erasing voltage of a nonvolatile memory. The negative voltage slope control circuit comprises an oscillator, a first switch tube, a benchmark constant-current source, a mirror image constant-current source, a transient control capacitor and a second switch tube. The oscillator is used for generating periodic wave; the first switch tube is connected with the oscillator and is used for obtaining control periodic wave to control the connection and disconnection of the first switch tube; the benchmark constant-current source is connected with the first switch tube; the mirror image constant-current source is connected with the first switch and is used for mirroring the current of the benchmark constant-current source; the transient control capacitor is connected with the mirror image constant-current source; the second switch tube is connected between the transient control capacitor and the mirror image constant-current source; and the erasing voltage is output through the second switch tube. The erasing voltage obtained by the negative voltage slope control circuit avoids generating abrupt change to form ripple wave, thereby the defects in the prior art are overcome.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a negative voltage slope control circuit, in particular to a negative voltage slope control circuit for controlling the slope of the erasing voltage of a nonvolatile memory. Background technique [0002] Semiconductor memories can be classified into volatile memories and nonvolatile memories. Electrically erasable / programmable non-volatile memory (EEPROM) is a type of non-volatile memory, which is characterized in that data can still be retained without power, and can be erased and modified when needed. To erase an EEPROM cell, it is often necessary to apply a negative voltage to its control gate (erase voltage). Therefore, in order to erase and write accurately, it is necessary to effectively control the negative voltage slope. [0003] For the prior art, please refer to US Patent No. 5,168,174 (Negative-Voltage Charge Pump With Feedback Control), which discloses a negative voltage slope control circuit. Figure 1a i...
