Abstract:
A present invention relates to a method of erasing a P-channel non-volatile memory is provided. This P-channel non-volatile memory includes a select transistor and a memory cell connected in series and disposed on a substrate. In the method of erasing the P-channel non-volatile memory, holes are injected into a charge storage structure by substrate hole injection effect. Hence, the applied operational voltage is low, so the power consumption is lowered, and the efficiency of erasing is enhanced. As a result, an operational speed of the memory is accelerated, and the reliability of the memory is improved.
