Abstract :
An ultra-low power logic NVM has currents <10 nA/cell in all operating regimes, high programming/erase speeds, excellent endurance/retention and allows strong Vdd fluctuations. The memory uses CMOS inverter read-out principle (C-Flash) and F-N injection for programming and erase with voltages below +5 V. The memory is intended for RFID and advanced mobile applications requiring small/middle sized embedded memory modules.
