Embodiment Construction

[0032] Endurance is an important index to measure the reliability of the memory, which means that the read current of the memory still meets the requirements after multiple erasing operations. Generally, the durability of EEPROM is required to be erased more than 100,000 times. for image 3 The shown EEPROM, its durability can not meet the needs of users. The invention provides an EEPROM storage array and the EEPROM, and improves the durability of the EEPROM by changing the operating voltage when the EEPROM performs erasing operations.

[0033] In order to make the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0034] An embodiment of the present invention provides an EEPROM memory array, including M word lines, M first control gate lines, M second control gate lines, N bit lines, N source lines, and M rows and...

Abstract

An EEPROM memory array and an EEPROM. The EEPROM includes: a memory array; a row decoding circuit suitable for providing a voltage ranging from 6V to 8V to word lines which are connected to a to-be-erased memory unit, providing a voltage ranging from -6V to -8V to first controlling grid lines and second controlling grid lines which are connected to the to-be-erased memory unit and providing a 0V voltage to the word lines, the first controlling grid liness and the second controlling grid lines which are not connected to the to-be-erased memory unit; a column decoding circuit suitable for providing a bias voltage to bit lines, source lines which are connected to the to-be-erased memory unit and to a P-type well region in a sub memory array in which the to-be-erased memory unit is arranged and providing a 0V voltage to the bit lines and the source lines which are not connected to the to-be-erased memory unit and to the P-type well region in a sub memory array in which the to-be-erased memory unit is arranged, wherein the bias voltage is negative in value. By means of the EEPROM memory array and the EEPROM, a memory is improved in durability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of memory, in particular to an EEPROM storage array and the EEPROM. Background technique [0002] Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM, Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) is a semiconductor storage device with a byte as the minimum unit of modification, which can be electronically rewritten multiple times. figure 1 It is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of an existing EEPROM storage unit. The EEPROM storage unit includes: a P-type well region 100, the P-type well region 100 is located in a semiconductor substrate; an intermediate electrode 140 located above the P-type well region 100; symmetrically distributed on both sides of the intermediate electrode 140 The first storage bit and the second storage bit. Wherein, the first storage bit includes a drain 111 , a first floating gate 121 and a first control gate 131 ; the second storage bit includes a sour...
