  • Abstract
    A new read operation scheme by using the differential of the threshold voltage (or current) is proposed in nitride storage memory devices. By utilizing the DIBL characteristics between program state and erase state, the principle and application of this cell read operation either in single bit or in two bits is demonstrated. Finally, the application for multi-level operation is proposed
