Abstract

The invention discloses a word line output gating circuit. According to the invention, two transmission pipes of the same type are used; one PMOS transistor is used for transmitting positive and negative high voltages; the other PMOS transistor is used for biasing a word line in a non-enabling state; the distances between the high-voltage P trap isolating ring of the PMOS tube and the high-voltageN trap and the deep N trap of the NMOS tube in the prior art are saved from the aspect of layout occupied area, the high-voltage P trap isolating ring and the deep N trap isolating ring of the NMOS tube are also saved, and only one high-voltage N trap isolating ring is used as a substrate. Besides, the same PMOS transistor is used for transmitting positive and negative high voltages, so that thelogic complexity and the layout area of the related sector output control circuit can be saved, the functional requirements on a peripheral drive circuit are simplified, the structure and the layout wiring of the word line decoder control circuit become simple, and the occupied layout area can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor memory chip design, in particular to a word line output gating circuit. Background technique [0002] The word line decoder control circuit (XDEC) in the non-volatile flash memory technology Nor Flash memory mainly provides word line (WL) decoding for the memory array (Memory Array), and reads (Read), writes (PGM), erases The voltage signals in (ER) and other modes are selected and output to the WL of the array unit (Array Cell 1) according to the mode control signal and address information. Therefore, XDEC is the only modular circuit in memory chips that increases linearly with memory capacity. However, the smaller the process size of the Cell, the smaller the height of the Array, which limits the height of the XDEC on the layout. If the original circuit area remains unchanged, the X direction of the XDEC will be further expanded. At the same time, the narrow space will also increase the ...
