Problems solved by technology

A CMOS inverter is also used to make the power supply of the two branches asymmetric, so that the driving current required by the negative high-voltage level shifting circuit during conversion is greatly reduced, thereby overcoming the traditional negative high-voltage level shifting circuit due to the input voltage Defects caused by the circuit not working properly due to lower

Abstract

Negative voltage decoding circuit belongs to technique area for designing hybrid signal processing IC and not volatile memory circuit. The characters are as follows. First stage of negative voltage level transfer circuit contains an inverter composed of PMOS tube and NMOS tube as well as a CMOS inverter. The input end and output end of said PMOS tube and NMOS tube are connected so as to constitute positive feedback channel of output voltage. PMOS tube transfers positive voltage, and NMOS tube transfers negative low voltage. CMOS inverter makes asymmetric branch currents at two sides. Two PMOS tubes determine initial input voltage of the two inverters. NMOS tube with its grid electrode being connected to positive high voltage transfers output earth level when the fetch-discharge channel reads level normally. Thus, transferring loss of PMOS tube is avoided. The invention possesses features of fast level conversion speed, increasing capability of reducing size of transistor.

Description

technical field [0001] The negative voltage decoding circuit relates to the technical fields of mixed signal processing integrated circuit and non-volatile memory circuit design. Background technique [0002] Currently, among non-volatile memories, flash memory (Flash Memory) is developing rapidly due to its high programming speed, high integration and superior performance. In 1984, Masuoka and others proposed the concept of flash memory for the first time, that is, the high speed of flash erasing was realized by erasing and programming by bit and bit by block (sector), and eliminated EEPROM (Erasable Programmable Read-only memory: Erasable Programmable Read-only memory: Erasable Programmable Read-only memory) necessary selector for programming read-only memory). [0003] figure 1 Represents the layout of a memory array. When the memory performs an erasing operation on a selected block, it is necessary to add a corresponding erasing voltage (generally a negative voltage) ...
