    Abstract: A method for supplying negative programming voltages to non-volatile memory cells in a non-volatile memory device provides for charging a capacitor (C;C1-Cn) to a positive high voltage by connecting, through first switching means (TX,TY;TE1-TEn,TF1-TFn), a first plate (A;A1-An) of the capacitor (C;C1-Cn) to a positive high-voltage supply (Vpp) and connecting, through second switching means (TB;TZ;TD1-TDn), a second plate (B;B';B1-Bn) of the capacitor (C;C1-Cn), which is also operatively connected to the control gate of at least one memory cell, to a reference voltage supply (GND), and for successively connecting, through said first switching means (TX,TY;TE1-TEn,TF1-TFn) the first plate (A;A1-An) of the capacitor (C;C1-Cn) to the reference voltage supply (GND) and disconnecting the second plate (B;B';B1-Bn) of the capacitor (C;C1-Cn) from the reference voltage supply (GND) to obtain a negative voltage on said second plate (B;B';B1-Bn) voltage.
