Method of pulse programming, in particular for high-parallelism memory devices, and a memory device implementing the method

摘要

A pulse programming method for a non-volatile memory device includes: addressing memory cells to be programmed within the device by selecting corresponding hierarchic decoder transistors; biasing the gate terminals of the memory cells; and programming the memory cells by applying a voltage pulse, regulated by a bias circuit, to the drain terminals of the memory cells. Advantageously, the programming method further comprises a step of precharging an internal node of the bias circuit before starting the programming step, the internal node being connected to a parasitic capacitance of the memory device.
