  • Abstract
    A new programming scheme for flash memory devices, designated pulse agitated substrate hot electron injection (PASHEI), is demonstrated, which can be readily implemented with current cell structures without modification. Detailed comparison between CHEI and PASHEI is reported. Using this technique, excellent endurance characteristics are obtained up to 100 k cycles
