请参考图2。图2为说明本发明侦测字线缺陷的方法200的流程图。设侦测装置100欲侦测字线W1是否有缺陷,亦即侦测装置100会判断是否有电性连接路径存在于字线W1与相邻的字线W2之间,则侦测装置100会进行图2所述的步骤。详细说明如下:Please refer to Figure 2. FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method 200 for detecting word line defects of the present invention. Assuming that the detection device 100 intends to detect whether the word line W1 is defective, that is, the detection device 100 will determine whether there is an electrical connection path between the word line W1 and the adjacent word line W2 , then the detection The device 100 will perform the steps described in FIG. 2 . The details are as follows:

步骤201:控制器110控制解码器120与驱动器P1,以启动(activate)字线W1,同时将字线W2保持在非启动(deactivate)的状态;Step 201: the controller 110 controls the decoder 120 and the driver P 1 to activate the word line W 1 while keeping the word line W 2 in a deactivated state;

步骤202:控制器110通过比特线B1,读取对应的存储单元M11中所储存的数据D1Step 202: the controller 110 reads the data D 1 stored in the corresponding storage unit M 11 through the bit line B 1 ;

步骤203:控制器110以一预定时间TP,关闭解码器120与驱动器P1,以使得字线W1处于悬浮状态(suspending);Step 203: the controller 110 turns off the decoder 120 and the driver P 1 for a predetermined time T P , so that the word line W 1 is in a suspended state (suspending);

步骤204:控制器110在该预定时间TP之后,开启该驱动器P1(解码器120仍保持关闭),以数据D1的互补状态(complementary)作为数据D2,通过比特线B1,将数据D2写入存储单元M11中;Step 204: After the predetermined time T P , the controller 110 turns on the driver P 1 (the decoder 120 is still turned off), takes the complementary state (complementary) of the data D 1 as the data D 2 , and passes the bit line B 1 to the Data D 2 is written in storage unit M 11 ;

步骤205:控制器110控制解码器120与驱动器P1,以再次启动字线W1Step 205: the controller 110 controls the decoder 120 and the driver P 1 to enable the word line W 1 again;

步骤206:控制器110通过比特线B1,读取存储单元M11中所储存的数据D3Step 206: the controller 110 reads the data D 3 stored in the memory unit M 11 through the bit line B 1 ;

步骤207:控制器110根据数据D1与D3,判断是否有电性连接路径存在于字线W1与相邻的字线W2之间。Step 207: The controller 110 determines whether there is an electrical connection path between the word line W 1 and the adjacent word line W 2 according to the data D 1 and D 3 .

字线的启动与非启动需通过解码器120与其对应的驱动器来进行。举例来说,若欲启动字线W1,则解码器120需发出代表“启动”的信号至驱动器P1,字线W1才会被启动;反之,若欲非启动字线W2,则解码器120需发出代表“非启动”的信号至驱动器P2,字线W2才会被非启动。此外,启动的字线W1与非启动的字线W2会被分别驱动至一启动电位VACT与一非启动电位VDEACT。举例来说,设启动电位VACT为一高电位(如5伏特)、非启动电位VDEACT为一低电位(如0伏特),则当字线W1被启动后,其上的电位为5伏特;当字线W2被非启动后,其上的电位为0伏特。或者,可设启动电位VACT为一低电位(如0伏特)、非启动电位VDEACT为一高电位(如5伏特),则当字线W1被启动后,其上的电位为0伏特;当字线W2被非启动后,其上的电位为5伏特。而在启动电位VACT与非启动电位VDEACT之间会设置一临界电位VTH。当一字线上的电位落于启动电位VACT与临界电位VTH之间时,该字线所对应的存储单元方可被对应的比特线进行读/写的动作;反之,当一字线上的电位落于非启动电位VACT与临界电位VTH之间时,该字线所对应的存储单元便无法被对应的比特线进行读/写的动作。以下将设定启动电位VACT为5伏特、非启动电位VDEACT为0伏特、临界电位VTH为3伏特以方便说明。The activation and deactivation of the word lines are performed by the decoder 120 and its corresponding driver. For example, if the word line W 1 is to be activated, the decoder 120 needs to send a signal representing “enable” to the driver P 1 , and the word line W 1 will be activated; otherwise, if the word line W 2 is to be deactivated, then The decoder 120 needs to send a signal representing “disable” to the driver P 2 , so that the word line W 2 will be deactivated. In addition, the activated word line W 1 and the deactivated word line W 2 are respectively driven to an activation potential V ACT and a deactivation potential V DEACT . For example, assuming that the activation potential V ACT is a high potential (such as 5 volts), and the deactivation potential V DEACT is a low potential (such as 0 volts), then when the word line W 1 is activated, the potential on it is 5 volts. Volts; when the word line W2 is deactivated, the potential on it is 0 volts. Alternatively, the activation potential V ACT can be set to a low potential (such as 0 volts), and the non-activation potential V DEACT can be set to a high potential (such as 5 volts), then when the word line W 1 is activated, the potential on it is 0 volts ; When the word line W2 is deactivated, the potential on it is 5 volts. A threshold potential V TH is set between the activation potential V ACT and the deactivation potential V DEACT . When the potential on a word line falls between the activation potential V ACT and the critical potential V TH , the memory cell corresponding to the word line can be read/written by the corresponding bit line; otherwise, when a word line When the potential above falls between the non-activating potential V ACT and the critical potential V TH , the memory cell corresponding to the word line cannot be read/written by the corresponding bit line. Hereinafter, the activation potential V ACT is set to 5 volts, the deactivation potential V DEACT is 0 volts, and the threshold potential V TH is 3 volts for convenience of description.

在步骤201中,启动字线W1代表字线W1上的电位会被驱动至5伏特(VACT),而非启动字线W2代表字线W2上的电位会被驱动至0伏特(VDEACT)。In step 201, the activated word line W 1 represents that the potential on the word line W 1 will be driven to 5 volts (V ACT ), and the non-activated word line W 2 represents that the potential on the word line W 2 will be driven to 0 volts. (V DEACT ).

在步骤202中,字线W1被启动,则存储单元M11便可通过比特线B1将所储存的数据D1传送至控制器110。In step 202, the word line W1 is activated, and the memory cell M11 can transmit the stored data D1 to the controller 110 through the bit line B1 .

在步骤203中,控制器110将解码器120与驱动器P1关闭,如此字线W1便处于悬浮状态。由于先前字线W1被启动、字线W2被非启动,因此字线W1与W2上的电位分别为5与0伏特。如前所述,存储单元M11可被进行读/写的条件是字线W1上的电位需高于3伏特(临界电位VTH)。若有电性连接路径存在于字线W1与W2之间,则字线W1上的电位将会由于电性连接路径,漏电至字线W2而逐渐降低字线W1上的电位。因此在步骤203中,将字线W1被悬浮一段时间TP的目的在于可借此判断字线W1与W2之间是否存在有电性连接路径。换句话说,若字线W1与W2之间并无存在电性连结路径,则在经过步骤203后,字线W1上的电位仍能维持5伏特以让存储单元M11进行读/写;若字线W1与W2之间存在电性连结路径,则在经过步骤203后,字线W1上的电位便会降低至无法让存储单元进行读/写。In step 203, the controller 110 turns off the decoder 120 and the driver P1 , so that the word line W1 is in a floating state. Since the word line W1 was activated and the word line W2 was deactivated previously, the potentials on the word lines W1 and W2 are 5 and 0 volts, respectively. As mentioned above, the condition for the memory cell M 11 to be read/written is that the potential on the word line W 1 must be higher than 3 volts (threshold potential V TH ). If there is an electrical connection path between the word line W1 and W2 , the potential on the word line W1 will leak to the word line W2 due to the electrical connection path, and gradually reduce the potential on the word line W1 . . Therefore, in step 203, the purpose of suspending the word line W1 for a period of time T P is to determine whether there is an electrical connection path between the word lines W1 and W2 . In other words, if there is no electrical connection path between the word line W1 and W2 , then after step 203, the potential on the word line W1 can still maintain 5 volts to allow the memory cell M11 to read/write Writing: if there is an electrical connection path between the word lines W1 and W2 , after step 203, the potential on the word line W1 will be reduced to such an extent that the memory cells cannot be read/written.

在步骤204中,控制器110在该预定时间TP之后,开启该驱动器P1,并以数据D1的互补状态作为数据D2,通过比特线B1,将数据D2写入存储单元M11中。也就是说,若数据D1为逻辑“1”,则数据D2为逻辑“0”;若数据D1为逻辑“0”,则数据D2为逻辑“1”。由于此时解码器120仍处于关闭状态,所以字线W1并未被重新启动(亦即并未被重新驱动至5伏特)。如此一来,若字线W1与W2之间存在有电性连结路径,则数据D2便无法写入至存储单元M11;若字线W1与W2之间并没有存在电性连结路径,则数据D2便可以通过比特线B1,写入至存储单元M11。更明确地说,若字线W1与W2之间存在有电性连结路径,经过步骤204之后,存储单元M11所储存的数据仍为先前的数据D1;若字线W1与W2之间并没有存在电性连结路径,则存储单元M11所储存的数据便成为数据D2In step 204, the controller 110 turns on the driver P 1 after the predetermined time T P , and uses the complementary state of the data D 1 as the data D 2 , and writes the data D 2 into the memory cell M through the bit line B 1 11 in. That is, if the data D1 is logic "1", then the data D2 is logic "0"; if the data D1 is logic "0", then the data D2 is logic "1". Since the decoder 120 is still off at this time, the word line W1 is not restarted (ie not re-driven to 5 volts). In this way, if there is an electrical connection path between the word lines W1 and W2 , the data D2 cannot be written into the memory cell M11 ; if there is no electrical connection path between the word lines W1 and W2 If the path is connected, the data D 2 can be written into the memory cell M 11 through the bit line B 1 . More specifically, if there is an electrical connection path between the word lines W1 and W2 , after step 204, the data stored in the memory cell M11 is still the previous data D1 ; if the word lines W1 and W2 There is no electrical connection path between 2 , the data stored in the memory unit M 11 becomes the data D 2 .

在步骤205中,控制器110开启解码器120与驱动器P1,并再次启动字线W1,即在步骤205中,字线W1上的电位会再次被驱动至5伏特。如此在步骤206中,控制器110便能通过比特线B1来读取存储单元M11所储存的数据D3In step 205 , the controller 110 turns on the decoder 120 and the driver P 1 , and activates the word line W 1 again, that is, in step 205 , the potential on the word line W 1 is driven to 5 volts again. In this way, in step 206 , the controller 110 can read the data D 3 stored in the memory unit M 11 through the bit line B 1 .

在步骤207中,控制器110便可比较步骤206所读取的数据D3与步骤202中所读取的数据D1,来判断字线W1与W2之间是否存在电性连结路径。更明确地说,由于步骤204中,控制器110写入与数据D1互补型态的数据D2,因此,若在步骤204中,数据D2写入成功,则在步骤207中所读取出的数据D3将会是数据D2;若在步骤204中,数据D2写入失败,则在步骤207中所读取出的数据D3将会是数据D1。控制器110如此便可比较数据D3与D1,以判断字线W1与W2之间是否存在电性连接路径。更明确地说,若数据D3与D1为互补型态,则表示在步骤204中的数据D2写入成功,因此控制器110可判断字线W1与W2之间并无存在电性连接路径;若数据D3与D1为相同型态,则表示在步骤204中的数据D2写入失败,因此控制器110可判断字线W1与W2之间有存在电性连接路径,而据以判断字线W1有缺陷。In step 207 , the controller 110 can compare the data D 3 read in step 206 with the data D 1 read in step 202 to determine whether there is an electrical connection path between the word lines W 1 and W 2 . More specifically, since in step 204, the controller 110 writes data D 2 that is complementary to data D 1 , therefore, if in step 204, data D 2 is written successfully, then the data read in step 207 The output data D 3 will be data D 2 ; if in step 204 , the writing of data D 2 fails, then the data D 3 read in step 207 will be data D 1 . In this way, the controller 110 can compare the data D 3 and D 1 to determine whether there is an electrical connection path between the word lines W 1 and W 2 . More specifically, if the data D3 and D1 are complementary, it means that the writing of the data D2 in step 204 is successful, so the controller 110 can determine that there is no electrical connection between the word lines W1 and W2 . If the data D 3 and D 1 are of the same type, it means that the writing of the data D 2 in step 204 failed, so the controller 110 can determine that there is an electrical connection between the word lines W 1 and W 2 path, and it is judged that the word line W1 is defective.

综上所述,本发明所提供的字线缺陷的侦测装置,能够利用将字线悬浮一段时间后再进行互补数据写入的方式,来侦测相邻字线之间是否存在有电性连接路径,如此便可有效侦测有缺陷的字线,提供给使用者更大的便利性。To sum up, the word line defect detection device provided by the present invention can detect whether there is an electrical gap between adjacent word lines by suspending the word line for a period of time and then writing complementary data.
