Abstract :
Recent results show higher gate current in P-channel devices than in IV-channel ones under the same bias conditions. By this reason, we produced a P-chiannel EPROM cell, making use of a standard N-channel cell layout. We present a complete electrical charactcrization and point out some advantages which make P-channel EPROM cells very promising, especially for future CMOS applications.
