Abstract :
Many applications require moderate amounts of embedded NVM (<16 kb) for security encryption. Conventional approaches (EEPROM, flash) are expensive due to the need for several additional masks and process steps relative to CMOS. NOVeA is a scalable embedded flash technology manufactured on a standard CMOS logic process with an integrated SRAM array that facilitates password authentication.
