Non volatile storage device has supply voltage generator, which produces supply voltage and address decoder, which contains transistor for receiving supply voltage

摘要

The non volatile storage device (100) has a supply voltage generator (140), which produces supply voltage (VPP) and an address decoder (120), which contains a transistor for receiving supply voltage. The selected storage block passes the received word line voltage (VWL) to the multiple word lines (WL0 to WLm-1). The supply voltage varies as a function of a negative word line voltage is passed on to one of the word lines. An independent claim is also included for a method for driving a non volatile storage device.
