摘要
This paper discusses the optimization of embedded Nonvolatile Memories (NVMs) for today's semiconductor applications. Process, design and device technology for embedded NVMs are surveyed, with a focus on bit cell selection, program/erase techniques, and emerging trends in the industry. Split-gate cells employing source-side programming, along with the use of nitride or nanocrystal charge storage, are shown to be good choices for an increasingly broad set of eNVM applications.
