Firstly, programmed multi-bit data is written in data latches group in step S502, wherein described more Bit data is Gray code codeword.In some embodiments, when the line storage unit to storage array 108 is programmed, By programmed each multi-bit data be respectively written into in the one-to-one data latches group 203 of the storage unit of the row. For example, then caching latches by input/output interface 112 by programmed each multi-bit data write-in caching latch 202 Programmed each multi-bit data is respectively written into corresponding each data latches group 203 by device 202.
In step 504, pre-processes the multi-bit and be accordingly converted to each multi-bit data from Gray code codeword Accelerate coding codeword.In some embodiments, before executing step 504, can establish multi-bit data Gray code code table, Accelerate coding code table and the Gray code code table and the transformational relation for accelerating coding code table.Gray code conversion is to accelerate to compile The process of code can satisfy following two condition: (1) code word being re-started arrangement according to the quantity of " 0 ", with including more " 0 " Code word come indicate lower voltage class (that is, low-voltage-grade it is corresponding accelerate coding codeword in include " 0 " number not The number of " 0 " for accelerating to include in coding codeword corresponding less than voltage levels);And (2) for include equal " 0 " number Voltage class, obtained by converting the data latches of minimal number of corresponding with voltage class Gray code codeword The acceleration coding codeword of the voltage class (is being to add from Gray code conversion that is, for containing " 0 " voltage class equal in number During speed coding, make to need the number of the data latches changed minimum as far as possible).According to Gray code code table and accelerate The transformational relation of coding code table can be converted to each multi-bit data accordingly from Gray code codeword in step 504 Accelerate coding codeword.
For example, Fig. 9 shows the Gray code code table 900 of four bit datas, accelerates coding code table 950 and the Gray code Code table 900 and the transformational relation for accelerating coding code table 950.Filling shade partially illustrates when Gray code code table in Fig. 9 900 be converted to acceleration coding code table 950 when, the numerical value for the data latches for needing to change.For example, the Gray code of voltage class L1 Code word " 1110 ", which corresponds to, accelerates coding codeword " 0000 ";When corresponding four bit data of voltage class L1 from Gray code codeword " 1110 " are converted to when accelerating coding codeword " 0000 ", need that " 1 " that stores the first data latches 204 becomes " 0, " for the " 1 " of two data latches 206 storage becomes " 0 ", and " 1 " that third data latches 208 are stored becomes " 0 ".It needs Illustrate, accelerating coding code table 950 is the exemplary acceleration coding code table for meeting above-mentioned condition (1) and (2), other similar Acceleration coding code table also can satisfy condition (1) and (2), the disclosure is not construed as limiting this.
In step S506, the data latches group is scanned to determine that storage information is to wipe the data of (erase) state Latch group and storage information are not the data latches groups of erase status.For example, when the information of data latches group storage is When " 1111 ", the information of data latches group storage is the information of erase status;When data latches group storage information not When being " 1111 ", the information of data latches group storage is not the information of erase status.
It is the data latches group of erase status for storage information in step S508, it will be with the data latches group Corresponding storage unit is set as not programming state;It is not the data latches group of erase status for storage information, it will be with institute It states the corresponding storage unit of data latches group and is set as programming state.That is, when the information of data latches group storage is When " 1111 ", which is not programmed;When data latches group storage information not When being " 1111 ", which can be programmed.
In step S510, to needing programmed each storage unit to be programmed in storage array 108.For example, to depositing When one line storage unit of storage array 108 is programmed, the channel drain terminal of programmed storage unit can will be needed to be grounded, and The channel drain terminal for not needing the storage unit of programming is connect into supply voltage.In some embodiments, it is desirable to which programmed storage is single Member can be to be arranged to the storage unit of programming state in step S508, do not need programmed storage unit can for It is arranged to the storage unit of not programming state in step S508.
In some embodiments, incremental steps pulse program (ISPP) sequence of standard can be used to storage array 108 Storage unit be programmed.After the programming of each step, as shown in following step S512 and S514, one can be used Or scan operation is verified and latched to multiple verifying voltages to execute programming.It will be needed by the programming pulse voltage of stairstepping The voltage of the storage unit of programming is moved to target threshold voltage from erase status, the number of the programming pulse needed and every step Depending on the specific programming situation of verifying voltage number foundation after programming.After each programming pulse applies, require to make Verify whether current programming has successfully been successfully moved to the storage unit for the voltage of storage unit with verifying voltage Target threshold voltage.If the voltage of the storage unit has successfully been moved to target threshold voltage (the i.e. storage unit Program successfully), then it needs data latches group corresponding with the storage unit latching (as shown in following step S514), and It is marked accordingly (as shown in following step S516), to prevent the storage unit to be programmed again.
For example, with reference to Fig. 6 C, after each programming pulse of four bit datas, multiple verifying voltages can be used and carry out Verifying, and have corresponding latch operation after using the verifying of each verifying voltage.For example, using programming pulse PGMnInto After row programming, it can be verified first using verifying voltage VFY1 and carry out latch operation 671, then use verifying voltage VFY2 is verified and is carried out latch operation 672, and so on, until using next programming pulse PGMn+1It carries out next time It programs and carries out corresponding verification operation and latch operation.
In step 512, programming verification operation is executed.For example, can choose verifying voltage, and verify in step 512 Whether the voltage for being incorporated into each storage unit reaches the verifying voltage.The storage of the verifying voltage is had reached for voltage Corresponding voltage verification latch can be labeled as passing through state by unit;The verifying electricity is had not yet been reached for voltage Corresponding voltage verification latch can be labeled as not passing through state by the storage unit of pressure.The storage unit is corresponding Induction latch 216 or ephemeral data latch 212 corresponding with the storage unit can be used as the electricity of the storage unit Pressure verifying latch come using.
In step 514, executes and latch scan operation.For example, will be tested by the programming of the verifying voltage in step 514 Card and target threshold voltage are that the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying voltage is set as latch mode;And it will It is not the data latch of the storage unit of the verifying voltage by the storage unit and/or target threshold voltage of programming verifying The state of device group remains unchanged.
In some embodiments, in step 514, it can detecte the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit Accelerate the quantity of " 0 " and the position quantity for accelerating " 0 " in coding codeword whether corresponding with the verifying voltage in coding codeword It is consistent with position, and detect whether voltage verification latch corresponding with the storage unit is to pass through state.If institute State the quantity of " 0 " and position and first verifying in the acceleration coding codeword of the corresponding data latches group storage of storage unit Voltage is corresponding to accelerate the quantity of " 0 " and position in coding codeword consistent, and the corresponding voltage verification lock of the storage unit Storage is by state, and it is latch mode that data latches group corresponding with the storage unit, which is arranged,.However, if described deposit The quantity of " 0 " and position and first verifying voltage in the acceleration coding codeword of the corresponding data latches group storage of storage unit The quantity of " 0 " and position is inconsistent and/or the corresponding voltage verification of the storage unit latches in corresponding acceleration coding codeword Device is to keep the state of the corresponding data latches group of the storage unit constant not by state.
For example, when the corresponding voltage verification latch of the storage unit is not pass through state, the voltage verification lock The value of storage is " 1 ";When the voltage verification latch is to pass through state, the value of the voltage verification latch is " 0 ".On It states operation and " detects the quantity of " 0 " and position in the acceleration coding codeword of the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit Whether with first verifying voltage it is corresponding accelerate coding codeword in " 0 " quantity and position it is consistent, and detect described in Whether the corresponding voltage verification latch of storage unit is to pass through state " it may include: to charge to bus;It is deposited described in reading The corresponding data latches in position of " 0 " in acceleration coding codeword storage unit and corresponding with the verifying voltage Value, and read the value of voltage verification latch corresponding with the storage unit;Then the data lock being read is drawn high Storage.If the value for the data latches being read and the value of the voltage verification latch are " 0 ", deposited with described The corresponding data latches group of storage unit is arranged to latch mode (that is, data latches group corresponding with the storage unit It is successfully drawn high as latch mode " 1111 ");If value and/or the voltage verification of the data latches being read At least one in the value of latch is not " 0 " (that is, data latches group corresponding with the storage unit is not drawn successfully A height of latch mode " 1111 "), the state of data latches group corresponding with the storage unit remains unchanged.
In step S516, confirmation scan operation is executed.For example, being latched as depositing for latch mode for data latches group Storage unit, the storage unit is arranged judges latch to latch success status, to prevent the storage unit from continuing to compile Journey;The storage unit of latch mode is not latched as data latches group, the judgement that the storage unit is arranged is latched Device is to latch unsuccessful state.The corresponding induction latch 216 of storage unit or the storage unit are corresponding interim Data latches 212 can be used as the judgement latch come using.
In step S518, it is determined whether choose next verifying voltage to be programmed verifying.For example, if all tests Card voltage has been used to verify this programming or the voltage of all programmed storage units is not up in step S512 Verifying voltage, method 500 will no longer choose next verifying voltage be programmed verifying but then execute next step Rapid S520;Otherwise, method 500 can choose next verifying voltage to be programmed verifying, and return step S512.
In step S520, it is determined whether all programmings for needing programmed storage unit are completed.For example, in step Rapid S520, determine it is described need in programmed storage unit whether there are one or multiple storage units in this programming still Not up to respective target threshold voltage.If there are one or multiple storage units had not yet been reached in this programming it is respective Target threshold voltage, method 500 can be programmed next time with return step S510.If all storage units are in this volume Respective target threshold voltage is reached in journey, method 500 can move to step S522.
In step S522, since all storage units have reached respective target threshold voltage, method by programming 500 complete the programming to the multi-bit data.
What Fig. 6 A was that the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a kind of is programmed verifying and latch operation after one-time programming The schematic flow chart of method 600.Method 600 carries out step S512, S514, S516 and S518 of the method 500 in Fig. 5 Illustrative explanation.To being needed in storage array after programmed each storage unit is programmed in the step S510 of Fig. 5, The following steps of method 600 can be executed to be programmed verifying and latch operation.
Firstly, in step S602, select verifying voltage L1, and verify be incorporated into each storage unit voltage whether Reach the verifying voltage L1.
In step S604, the programming by verifying voltage L1 is verified and target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L1's Storage unit, it is latch mode (for example, the number can be set that data latches group corresponding with the storage unit, which is arranged, Information according to the storage of latch group is " 1111 ");And in step S606, the storage unit is arranged judges latch for lock Success status is deposited, to prevent the storage unit from continuing to program.
In step S608, for the storage unit and/or target threshold voltage of the programming verifying of unverified voltage L1 It is not the storage unit of verifying voltage L1, keeps the state of data latches group corresponding with the storage unit constant;And And in step S610, the storage unit is arranged judges latch to latch unsuccessful state.
In step S612, verifying voltage L2 is selected, and is verified and has been incorporated into the voltage of each storage unit and whether reaches Verifying voltage L2.
In step S614, the programming by verifying voltage L2 is verified and target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L2's Storage unit, it is latch mode (for example, the data can be set that data latches corresponding with the storage unit, which are arranged, The information of latch group storage is " 1111 ");And in step S616, the storage unit is arranged judges latch to latch Success status.
In step S618, for the storage unit and/or target threshold voltage of the programming verifying of unverified voltage L2 It is not the storage unit of verifying voltage L2, keeps the state of data latches corresponding with the storage unit constant;And In step S620, the storage unit is arranged judges latch to latch unsuccessful state.
In step S622, verifying voltage L3 is selected, and is verified and has been incorporated into the voltage of each storage unit and whether reaches Verifying voltage L3.Similarly, method 600 can also include the latch scan operation and confirmation scan operation to verifying voltage L3, And be programmed verifying using other verifying voltages, latch the operation for scanning and confirming scanning, the disclosure is no longer superfluous herein It states.
Fig. 7 A-7M is the illustrative programming process for four bit datas that the embodiment of the present disclosure provides.As shown in Figure 7 A, table Lattice 700 are shown: needing the targets threshold of programmed storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 Voltage is respectively L1, L2, L3 and L3;And storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 are corresponding The code word of data latches group storage is respectively and corresponding the accelerations coding codeword " 0000 " of L1, acceleration corresponding with L2 coding code Word " 0100 " and the corresponding acceleration coding codeword " 1000 " of L3 and acceleration coding codeword " 1000 " corresponding with L3.
Fig. 7 B shows voltage of each storage unit after first time programs, wherein storage unit 1 is programmed into voltage L1, storage unit 2 are programmed into voltage L2, and storage unit 3 is programmed into voltage L3 and storage unit 4 is programmed into voltage L1。
Fig. 7 C, which is shown, is programmed verifying to each storage unit using verifying voltage L1, and verification result is shown in table In 715.In conjunction with chart 710 and table 715 it is found that the voltage of each storage unit has reached verifying voltage L1, so with each The corresponding verifying voltage latch of storage unit is all set to pass through state.
Fig. 7 D shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L1 (accelerating coding codeword " 0000 ") Process.Table 720 shows the voltage verification result of each storage unit and the code word of corresponding data latches group storage. Since the voltage that storage unit 1 is programmed into has passed through the verifying of voltage L1, and the target threshold voltage of storage unit 1 is equal to Verifying voltage L1 is (for example, the acceleration volume for accelerating coding codeword with verifying voltage L1 that the data latches group of storage unit 1 stores Code code word is identical, is " 0000 "), so the data latches group of storage unit 1 is latched as latch mode from " 0000 " " 1111 " (as shown in arrow 721), and storage unit 1 judges that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.However, i.e. The voltage for being programmed into storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 passed the verifying of voltage L1, but due to The target threshold voltage of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is not equal to verifying voltage L1 (for example, storage is single Member 2, the data latches group of storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 storage accelerations coding codeword all add with verifying voltage L1 Fast coding codeword is not identical), so the state of the data latches group of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is equal It remains unchanged, and storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 judge that the state of latch is arranged to latch not Success.Table 722 shows the result that above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L1.
Since (1) storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 are not latched as respective targets threshold electricity Pressure, and the voltage of (2) storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is verified by the programming of last voltage L1, So also needing to choose next verifying voltage L2 carries out encoding verification.Fig. 7 E shows single to each storage using verifying voltage L2 Member is programmed verifying, and verification result is shown in table 727.In conjunction with chart 725 and table 727 it is found that storage unit 2 And the voltage of storage unit 3 has reached verifying voltage L2, so verifying corresponding with storage unit 2 and storage unit 3 Voltage latch is all set to pass through state;The voltage of storage unit 1 and storage unit 4 is not up to verifying voltage L2, institute It is all set to not pass through state with verifying voltage latch corresponding with storage unit 1 and storage unit 4.
Fig. 7 F shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L2 (accelerating coding codeword " 0100 ") Process.Table 730 shows the voltage verification result of each storage unit and the code word of corresponding data latches group storage. Since storage unit 1 has successfully reached its target threshold voltage L1 and its data latches group is also successfully latched, so depositing Storage unit 1 can't impact storage unit 1 not over the verifying of verifying voltage L2.Due to the programming of storage unit 2 Voltage has passed through the verifying of voltage L2, and the target threshold voltage of storage unit 2 is equal to verifying voltage L2 (for example, storage is single The acceleration coding codeword of the data latches group storage of member 2 is identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L2, is " 0100 "), so the data latches group of storage unit 2 is latched as latch mode " 1111 " (such as 731 institute of arrow from " 0100 " Show), and storage unit 2 judges that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.Due to storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 target threshold voltage is not equal to verifying voltage L1 (for example, the data latches group of storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is deposited The acceleration coding codeword of storage and the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L2 are all different), and there is no by testing for storage unit 4 The programming verifying of voltage L2 is demonstrate,proved, so the state of the data latches group of storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 remains unchanged, And storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 to judge that the state of latch is arranged to latch unsuccessful.Table 732 is shown Above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage is the result of verifying voltage L2.
Since (1) storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 are not latched as respective target threshold voltage and (2) are deposited The voltage of storage unit 3 passes through the programming verifying of last voltage L2, is compiled so also needing to choose next verifying voltage L3 Code verifying.Fig. 7 G, which is shown, is programmed verifying to each storage unit using verifying voltage L3, and verification result is shown in table In 742.In conjunction with chart 740 and table 742 it is found that the voltage of storage unit 3 has reached verifying voltage L3, so single with storage First 3 corresponding verifying voltage latch are arranged to pass through state;The electricity of storage unit 1, storage unit 2 and storage unit 4 Pressure is not up to verifying voltage L3, so verifying voltage latch corresponding with storage unit 1, storage unit 2 and storage unit 4 It is all set to not pass through state.
Fig. 7 F shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L3 (accelerating coding codeword " 1000 ") Process.Table 745 shows the voltage verification result of each storage unit and the code word of corresponding data latches group storage. Since storage unit 1 and storage unit 2 have successfully reached its respective target threshold voltage and its respective data latch Device group is also successfully latched, so storage unit 1 and storage unit 2 can't be to depositing not over the verifying of verifying voltage L3 Storage unit 1 and storage unit 2 impact.Since the program voltage of storage unit 3 has passed through the verifying of voltage L3, and store The target threshold voltage of unit 3 is equal to verifying voltage L3 (for example, the acceleration coding that the data latches group of storage unit 3 stores Code word is identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L3, is " 1000 "), thus the data latches group of storage unit 3 from " 1000 " are latched as latch mode " 1111 " (as shown in arrow 746), and the state quilt for judging latch of storage unit 3 It is set as latching successfully.Although the target threshold voltage of storage unit 4 is equal to verifying voltage L3 (for example, the data of storage unit 4 The acceleration coding codeword of latch group storage is identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L3), but the programming of storage unit 4 Voltage does not pass through the programming verifying of verifying voltage L3, so the state of the data latches group of storage unit 4 remains unchanged, And storage unit 4 to judge that the state of latch is arranged to latch unsuccessful.Table 747 shows above-mentioned latch target Threshold voltage is the result of verifying voltage L3.
Since (1) storage unit 4 is not latched as its target threshold voltage, and the voltage of (2) storage unit 4 does not have It is verified by the programming of last voltage L3, the programming of storage unit 4 is carried out so no longer choosing next verifying voltage L4 Verifying, but second is carried out to storage unit 4 and is programmed.Fig. 7 I shows the voltage L3 after storage unit 4 is programmed at second. Since when programming first time, storage unit 4 has passed through volume of the programming verifying of verifying voltage L1 without passing through verifying voltage L2 Journey verifying, so can directly be verified using verifying voltage L2 to storage unit 4 when second programs rather than from testing Card voltage L1 starts.
Fig. 7 J, which is shown, is programmed verifying to storage unit 4 using verifying voltage L2, and verification result is shown in table In 757.In conjunction with chart 755 and table 757 it is found that the voltage of storage unit 4 has reached verifying voltage L2, so single with storage First 4 corresponding verifying voltage latch are arranged to pass through state.
Fig. 7 K shows the process for latching the storage unit that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L2.Table 760 is shown The voltage verification result of storage unit 4 and the code word of corresponding data latches group storage.Due to the target threshold of storage unit 4 Threshold voltage is not equal to verifying voltage L2, so the state of the data latches group of storage unit 4 remains unchanged, and storage unit 4 to judge that the state of latch is arranged to latch unsuccessful.It is to test that table 762, which shows above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage, Demonstrate,prove the result of voltage L2.
Since (1) storage unit 4 is not latched as its target threshold voltage, and the voltage of (2) storage unit 4 passes through The programming of last voltage L2 is verified, so also needing to choose next verifying voltage L3 carries out encoding verification.Fig. 7 L is shown Verifying is programmed to storage unit 4 using verifying voltage L3, verification result is shown in table 767.In conjunction with chart 765 with And table 767 is it is found that the voltage of storage unit 4 has reached verifying voltage L3, so verifying voltage corresponding with storage unit 4 is locked Storage is arranged to pass through state.
Fig. 7 M shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L3 (accelerating coding codeword " 0100 ") Process.Table 770 shows the voltage verification result of storage unit 4 and the code word of corresponding data latches group storage. Since the voltage of storage unit 4 has passed through the verifying of verifying voltage L3, and the target threshold voltage of storage unit 4 is equal to verifying Voltage L3 is (for example, the acceleration coding code for accelerating coding codeword with verifying voltage L4 that the data latches group of storage unit 4 stores Word is identical, is " 1000 "), so the data latches group of storage unit 4 is latched as latch mode " 1111 " from " 1000 " (as shown in arrow 771), and storage unit 4 judges that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.Table 772 is shown Above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage is the result of verifying voltage L3.So far, storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 with And the corresponding each data latches group of storage unit 4 is successfully latched, to storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 with And the programming of storage unit 4 all terminates.
Fig. 8 A-8H is a kind of programming verifying for acceleration coding 950 based on Fig. 9 that the embodiment of the present disclosure provides and latches Method 8000 exemplary process diagram.As the programming verifying and the comparison of the method 8000 latched for accelerating coding, Fig. 8 A- The exemplary process diagram for the method 800 that the programming that 8H further comprises a kind of Gray code 900 based on Fig. 9 is verified and latched. For example, the programming verifying of Gray code 900 and the method 800 latched are shown on the left side of dotted line in Fig. 8 A-8H, accelerate The programming verifying of coding 950 and the method 8000 latched are shown on the right of dotted line.The verifying electricity of method 800 and method 8000 Pressure be be followed successively by according to the sequence from low-voltage to high voltage L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6, L7, L8, L9, L10, L11, L12, L13, L14 and L15.
For convenience described below, data latches group corresponding with programmed storage unit may include four Data latches ADL (Data Latch A), BDL (Data Latch B), CDL (Data Latch C) and DDL (Data Latch D), the code word of Gray code or accelerate each bit of the code word of coding be sequentially stored in data latches ADL, BDL, In CDL and DDL.For example, data latches ADL, BDL, CDL and DDL store " 1 " respectively, " 0 ", " 1 " for code word " 1010 ", " 0 " (that is, ADL=1, BDL=0, CDL=1, DDL=0).Induction latch can be expressed as SDL (Sensing Data Latch), ephemeral data latch can be expressed as TDL (Temporary Data Latch), and bus can be expressed as BUS.
In some embodiments, programming verifying and latch scan operation may include: (1) detection voltage verification the result is that It is no to pass through;(2) data latches group is compared by turn, judges the code word of the target threshold voltage of data latches group storage Whether be verifying voltage code word;(3) if having passed through the target threshold of the verifying of verifying voltage and the storage of data latches group The code word of threshold voltage is the code word of verifying voltage, i.e. the voltage of storage unit has reached target threshold voltage, then latches data Device group is set as latch mode " 1111 ".
In some embodiments, following step (1)-(3) detection data latch (for example, ADL) storage can be passed through " 0 " and " 1 ":
(1) it charges to bus B US, to label latch set, (TDL or SDL or other data latches be can be used as Mark latch use).
(2) read data latch ADL.If ADL=0, bus B US does not discharge, and label latch is still " 1 ";If ADL=1, then bus B US discharges, and marks latch by reset.
(3) label latch is drawn high again.If bus B US does not discharge in (2), label latch is still " 1 ", then exists The label latch success set being raised in step (3), to judge ADL=0;If bus B US is put in (2) Electricity marks latch by reset, then the label latch being raised in step (3) cannot succeed set, to judge ADL=1.
By above-mentioned steps (1)-(3) it is found that because bus B US discharges, needing one when detection data latch is " 1 " A " 1 " connects one " 1 " and is detected, and cannot detect more than two " 1 " simultaneously (that is, two data locks cannot be detected simultaneously Whether storage is " 1 ");And detection data latch be " 0 " when, can directly detect detection in need " 0 " (that is, Can detect whether more than two data latches are " 0 " simultaneously).Therefore, accelerate coding can be by changing cataloged procedure In each code word each sequence, allow to faster be detected containing " 0 " a fairly large number of code word it is preceding (that is, with contain " 0 " A fairly large number of code word represents lower verifying voltage), and contain the code word of " 0 " negligible amounts it is rear (that is, with containing " 0 " quantity compared with Few code word represents higher verifying voltage), so as to save the redundant operation of detection " 1 ".Therefore, accelerate the programming of coding Speed can be accelerated, and power consumption can also reduce.
For example, with reference to the coding in Fig. 9, for encoding L1, L2, when detection, in order to current list Primitive encoding is distinguished with all units on the right side of it.Because " 0 " and " 1 " relationship of Gray code is indefinite, using When Gray code, if L1 (" 1110 ") distinguished with L2-L15, needs to detect ADL=1, then detect BDL=1, so After detect CDL=1, finally detect DDL=0.And after being recompiled using acceleration coding, code word corresponding for L1 " 0000 " can directly detect four " 0 " (that is, ADL=BDL=CDL=DDL=0) simultaneously.Similarly, for voltage L2, When using Gray code, if L2 (" 1100 ") distinguished with L3-L15, needs to detect ADL=1, then detect BDL= 1, then detect CDL=DDL=0.And after using acceleration coding to recode, code word " 0100 " corresponding for L2, Ke Yizhi It connects while detecting three " 0 " (that is, ADL=CDL=DDL=0) can just be such that L2 distinguishes with L3-L15, because in L3-L15 There is no ADL, CDL and DDL while being the code word of " 0 ".Therefore, accelerate coding that can save the redundant operation of detection " 1 ", programming Speed can be accelerated, and power consumption can also reduce.
Referring to Fig. 8 A, in method 800, the Gray code code word of verifying voltage L1 is " 1110 ", and method 800 includes: step Rapid S801 verifies pulse L1 (that is, verifying voltage L1) to programmed storage unit;Step S802, it is single to programmed storage Member executes the latch of pulse L1;Step S803, first " 1 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=1);Step S804 detects second " 1 " (that is, detection BDL=1);Step S805, detection third " 1 " (that is, detection CDL=1);Step S806 detects one " 0 " (that is, detection DDL=0);And step S807, above-mentioned steps S803-S806 will be met and by the verifying of verifying voltage L1 The data latches group of storage unit is latched as " 1111 " (that is, data latches group is latched as ADL=1, BDL=1, CDL= 1, DDL=1);Also, it will not meet above-mentioned steps S803-S806 or not by the storage unit of the verifying of verifying voltage L1 The state of data latches group remain unchanged.
For example, the verifying and latch of L1 (Gray code " 1110 ") may include following operation A)-E):
A) to BUS charging (that is, setting BUS=1), label latch (for example, setting flag latch TDL=1) is drawn high.
B) BUS charges (BUS=1), reads ADL, then draw high TDL=1.If ADL=1, then TDL=0;Otherwise TDL=1.
C) BUS charges (BUS=1), reads BDL, then draw high TDL=1.If BDL=1, TDL=0;Otherwise TDL=1.
D) BUS charging BUS=1, reads CDL, then draw high TDL=1.If CDL=1, then TDL=0;Otherwise TDL=1.
E) BUS charging BUS=1, reads DDL, SDL, TDL, draws high DDL=1.If DDL=0, SDL=0, TDL=0, then DDL =1;Otherwise DDL=0.
In method 8000, the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L1 is " 0000 ", and method 8000 includes: step S8001, Pulse L1 (that is, verifying voltage L1) is verified to programmed storage unit;Step S8002 executes programmed storage unit The latch of pulse L1;Step S8006, four " 0 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=BDL=CDL=DDL=0);And step S8007 will meet above-mentioned steps S8006 and is latched as by the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of verifying voltage L1 " 1111 " (that is, data latches group is latched as ADL=1, BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1);Also, on will be without meeting It states step S8006 and/or is not remained unchanged by the state of the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of verifying voltage L1.
For example, the verifying and latch of L1 (accelerating coding " 0000 ") may include following operation: BUS charging BUS=1 is read ADL, BDL, CDL, DDL, SDL, then ADL=1 is drawn high, BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1.If ADL=0, BDL=0, CDL=0, DDL=0, SDL=0 (wherein, SDL=0 indicates that the voltage of storage unit has reached verifying voltage L1), then successfully latch ADL= 1, BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1;Otherwise ADL=0, BDL=0, CDL=0, DDL=0.
Therefore, compared to Gray code, accelerate coding that can save step S803-S805, so that operation number is reduced, Accelerate program speed, while reducing power consumption.
In method 800, the Gray code code word of verifying voltage L2 is " 1100 ", method 800 further include: step S808, Pulse L2 (that is, verifying voltage L2) is verified to programmed storage unit;Step S809 executes arteries and veins to programmed storage unit Rush the latch of L2;Step S810, first " 1 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=1);Step S811, second " 1 " of detection is (that is, inspection Survey BDL=1);Step S812, two " 0 " of detection (that is, detection CDL=DDL=0);And step S813, above-mentioned step will be met Rapid S810-S812 and " 1111 " are latched as (that is, several by the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of verifying voltage L2 ADL=1, BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1 are latched as according to latch group);Also, it will not meet above-mentioned steps S810- It S812 and/or is remained unchanged not over the state of data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of verifying voltage L2.
For example, the verifying and latch of L2 (Gray code " 1100 ") may include following operation:
A) BUS charging BUS=1, draws high TDL=1.
B) BUS charging BUS=1, reads ADL, then draw high TDL=1.If ADL=1, then TDL=0;Otherwise TDL=1.
C) BUS charging BUS=1, reads BDL, then draw high TDL=1.If BDL=1, then TDL=0;Otherwise TDL=1.
D) BUS charging BUS=1, reads CDL, DDL, SDL, TDL, draws high CDL, DDL=1.If CDL=0, DDL=0, SDL =0, TDL=0, then CDL=1, DDL=1;Otherwise CDL=0, DDL=0.
In method 8000, the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L2 is " 0100 ", method 8000 further include: step S8008 verifies pulse L2 (that is, verifying voltage L2) to programmed storage unit;Step S8009, it is single to programmed storage Member executes the latch of pulse L2;Step S8012, three " 0 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=CDL=DDL=0);And step S8013 will meet above-mentioned steps S8012 and be latched by the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of verifying voltage L2 For " 1111 " (that is, data latches group is latched as ADL=1, BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1);Also, will it not meet Above-mentioned steps S8012 and/or not over verifying voltage L2 verifying storage unit data latches group state keep It is constant.
For example, the verifying and latch of L2 (accelerating coding " 0100 ") may include following operation: BUS charging BUS=1 is read ADL, CDL, DDL, SDL, then ADL=1 is drawn high, CDL=1, DDL=1.If ADL=0, CDL=0, DDL=0, SDL=0 (its In, SDL=0 indicates that the voltage of storage unit has reached verifying voltage L2), then successfully latch ADL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1; Otherwise ADL=0, CDL=0, DDL=0.
Therefore, compared to Gray code, accelerate coding that can save step S810-S811, so that operation number is reduced, Accelerate program speed, while reducing power consumption.
Referring to Fig. 8 B, in method 800, the Gray code code word of verifying voltage L3 is " 1000 ", and method 800 includes: step Rapid S814 verifies pulse L3 (that is, verifying voltage L3) to programmed storage unit;Step S815, it is single to programmed storage Member executes the latch of pulse L3;Step S816, first " 1 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=1);Step S817 detects three " 0 " (that is, detection BDL=CDL=DDL=0);And step S818, above-mentioned steps S816-S817 will be met and by verifying electricity Press the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of L3 be latched as " 1111 " (that is, data latches group is latched as ADL=1, BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1);Also, it will not meet above-mentioned steps S816-S817 and/or not over verifying voltage L3 The state of data latches group of storage unit of verifying remain unchanged.
