Abstract:
Programming a NVM memory cell such as an NROM cell by using hot hole injection (HHI), followed by channel hot electron (CHE) injection. CHE injection increases the threshold voltage (Vt) of bits of memory cells that were disturbed (unnecessarily programmed) in HHI programming step. Page Write may be performed using a combination of only HHI, followed by CHE without any Erase.
