Abstract :
This paper develops an EEPROM cell model using potential and charge balance principles for the purpose of modeling the tunnel current and cell threshold voltage. The model is applied using a methodology previously presented in literature, and the results compared to experimental data as well as two different capacitor models previously presented in literature
