Abstract:

A new quantitative model is developed that allows an excellent prediction of the disturb behavior of tunnel oxide Flash E2PROM devices after write/erase cycling and provides a well-understood and consistent cell optimization procedure. This model requires as only input a measurement of the oxide quality on capacitors and transistors, and some basic cell characteristics.
