In step S504, the multi-bit data is converted into acceleration coding codeword from Gray code codeword.In some implementations In example, before executing step S504, it can establish the Gray code code table of multi-bit data, accelerate coding code table and the lattice Thunder code code table and the transformational relation for accelerating coding code table.For example, Gray code conversion is that the process of coding is accelerated to can satisfy Three condition (1)-(3) below:
(1) keep the highest invariant position of each Gray code codeword (for example, being the Gray code codeword of " 1 ", phase for highest order The highest order for the acceleration coding codeword answered still is " 1 ";It is the Gray code codeword of " 0 " for highest order, it is corresponding to accelerate coding The highest order of code word is still " 0 ");
(2) it is the code word of " 1 " for highest order: code word is re-started into arrangement according to the quantity of " 0 ", with comprising more The code word of " 0 " indicates the lower voltage class (that is, being the code word of " 1 ", low-voltage-grade corresponding accelerations volume for highest order The number of " 0 " that includes in code code word is no less than the number of corresponding " 0 " for accelerating to include in coding codeword of voltage levels); And for the voltage class including equal " 0 " number, by converting Gray code codeword corresponding with the voltage class most A small number of purpose data latches come obtain the voltage class acceleration coding codeword (that is, highest order be " 1 " code word in, For containing " 0 " voltage class equal in number, during being to accelerate coding from Gray code conversion, make to need to become as far as possible The number of the data latches of change is minimum);And
(3) similarly, it is the code word of " 0 " for highest order: code word is re-started into arrangement according to the quantity of " 0 ", with packet (that is, being the code word of " 0 " for highest order, low-voltage-grade is corresponding to indicate lower voltage class for code word containing more " 0 " The number of " 0 " that includes in coding codeword is accelerated to be no less than corresponding " 0 " for accelerating to include in coding codeword of voltage levels Number);And for the voltage class including equal " 0 " number, by converting Gray code code corresponding with the voltage class The data latches of the minimal number of word come obtain the voltage class acceleration coding codeword (that is, highest order be " 0 " code In word, for containing " 0 " voltage class equal in number, during being to accelerate coding from Gray code conversion, make as far as possible The number for the data latches for needing to change is minimum).
According to Gray code code table and the transformational relation of coding code table is accelerated described can mostly to compare each in step S504 Special data are converted to corresponding acceleration coding codeword from Gray code 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 " 1000 ";When corresponding four bit data of voltage class L1 from Gray code codeword When " 1110 " are converted to acceleration coding codeword " 1000 ", " 1 " of the first data latches 204 storage is remained unchanged, the 4th data " 0 " that latch 210 stores remains unchanged, and " 1 " that stores the second data latches 206 is needed to become " 0 ", and by third " 1 " that data latches 208 store becomes " 0 ".It should be noted that coding code table 950 is accelerated only to meet above-mentioned condition (1) the exemplary acceleration in-(3) encodes code table, and other similar acceleration coding code table also can satisfy condition (1)-(3), this public affairs It opens and this is not construed as limiting.
In some embodiments, the acceleration coding encodes multiple voltage class, wherein first part's voltage etc. The highest order of the acceleration coding codeword of grade is that the highest order of the acceleration coding codeword of " 0 " and second part voltage class is " 1 ", first part's voltage class are all larger than the second part voltage class.For first part's voltage class: (1) the corresponding number for accelerating " 0 " that includes in coding codeword of low-voltage-grade is no less than the corresponding acceleration of voltage levels and compiles The number of " 0 " that includes in code code word;And (2) pass through conversion and the electricity for the voltage class including equal " 0 " number The data latches of the minimal number of the corresponding Gray code codeword of grade are pressed to obtain the acceleration coding codeword of the voltage class. Similarly, for the second part voltage class: (1) corresponding " 0 " for accelerating to include in coding codeword of low-voltage-grade Number is no less than the number of corresponding " 0 " for accelerating to include in coding codeword of voltage levels;And (2) for include it is equal The voltage class of " 0 " number is latched by converting the data of minimal number of Gray code codeword corresponding with the voltage class Device obtains the acceleration coding codeword of the voltage class.
It in step S506, determines and needs programmed storage unit in storage array, wherein deposited described in needs are programmed Storage unit includes: the storage unit that target threshold voltage is greater than predetermined voltage;And target threshold voltage is predetermined no more than described The storage unit of voltage.The predetermined voltage can be preset voltage.For example, the predetermined voltage can be single by storage Member is divided into high voltage memory cell group and low-voltage memory cell group.When the target threshold voltage of storage unit is greater than described make a reservation for When voltage, the storage unit is by cut-in high voltage memory cell group;When the target threshold voltage of storage unit is no more than described When predetermined voltage, the storage unit is by cut-in low-voltage memory cell group.Acceleration corresponding to low-voltage memory cell group is compiled The code word of code is the code word that highest order is " 1 ";The code word of acceleration coding is that highest order is corresponding to high voltage memory cell group The code word of " 0 ".For example, with reference to Fig. 9, the storage unit that target threshold voltage is greater than predetermined voltage includes that target threshold voltage is Each storage unit of L8-L15, the corresponding highest order for accelerating coding codeword is " 0 ";Target threshold voltage is no more than predetermined The storage unit of voltage includes each storage unit that target threshold voltage is L1-L7, the corresponding highest for accelerating coding codeword Position is " 1 ".
In some embodiments, when executing step S506, the data latches group is scanned first to determine storage letter It ceases the data latches group for erasing (erase) state and stores the data latches group that information is not erase status.For example, working as When the information of data latches group storage is " 1111 ", the information of data latches group storage is the information of erase status;When When the information of data latches group storage is not " 1111 ", the information of data latches group storage is not the letter of erase status Breath.
It then, is the data latches group of erase status for storage information, it will be corresponding with the data latches group 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 the data The corresponding storage unit of latch group is set as programming state.That is, when the information of data latches group storage is " 1111 ", no The corresponding storage unit of data latches group is programmed;When the information of data latches group storage is not " 1111 ", The corresponding storage unit of data latches group can be programmed.For example, it is desired to which programmed storage unit can be quilt It is set as the storage unit of programming state, not needing programmed storage unit can be to be arranged to the storage of not programming state Unit.
Then, according to the respective target threshold voltage of the storage unit in programming state, programming state will be in Storage unit is divided into the storage unit (that is, high voltage memory cell group) and targets threshold that target threshold voltage is greater than predetermined voltage Voltage is not more than the storage unit (that is, low-voltage memory cell group) of predetermined voltage.
In step S508, to needing programmed target threshold voltage to be greater than the predetermined voltage in storage array 108 Each storage unit is pre-programmed into intermediate state voltage.For example, when the line storage unit to storage array 108 is programmed, it can It is grounded with the channel drain terminal for each storage unit that programmed and target threshold voltage will be needed to be greater than the predetermined voltage, and The storage unit for not needing programming and target threshold voltage are connect no more than the channel drain terminal of the storage unit of the predetermined voltage Supply voltage.In some embodiments, the intermediate state voltage (Ltemp) it is not more than the minimum target of high voltage memory cell group Threshold voltage.For example, with reference to Fig. 9, high voltage memory cell group includes each storage unit that target threshold voltage is L8-L15, institute The minimum target threshold voltage for stating high voltage memory cell group is L8, so intermediate state voltage Ltemp≤L8。
In some embodiments, can be used standard or off-gauge incremental steps pulse program (ISPP) sequence or its He is programmed the storage unit of storage array 108 programmed sequence.In order to enable target threshold voltage is greater than the predetermined electricity The voltage of each storage unit of pressure is programmed into intermediate state voltage, and multiple programming pulses can be used and be greater than to target threshold voltage Each storage unit of the predetermined voltage is repeatedly programmed, and is verified after each programming.For example, step S508 can be with Include:
(1) pre-programmed is carried out using each storage unit that programming pulse is greater than the predetermined voltage to target threshold voltage (for example, to accelerating the storage unit that coding codeword highest order is " 0 " to carry out pre-programmed);
(2) verify programmed and target threshold voltage be greater than the predetermined voltage each storage unit voltage whether Intermediate state voltage is had reached (for example, verifying is programmed and accelerates coding codeword highest order for the voltage of the storage unit of " 0 " Whether intermediate state voltage is had reached);
(3) for having reached the acceleration coding codeword highest order of intermediate state voltage as the storage unit of " 0 ", stop to it Carry out pre-programmed;And the acceleration coding codeword highest order for intermediate state voltage has not yet been reached is the storage unit of " 0 ", returns to behaviour Make (1) to continue to carry out pre-programmed to it and operate (2) to continue to verify, until each storage unit reaches intermediate state electricity Pressure.
For example, with reference to 680 parts of Fig. 6 D, programming pulse PGM is being used1,nTarget threshold voltage is greater than described predetermined After each storage unit of voltage is programmed, verifying voltage VFY can be usedTempIt is verified (for example, verifying voltage VFYTemp Equal to intermediate state voltage).Target threshold voltage for having reached intermediate state voltage is greater than the storage list of the predetermined voltage Member, stopping carry out pre-programmed to it;And the target threshold voltage for intermediate state voltage has not yet been reached is greater than the predetermined voltage Storage unit, use next programming pulse PGM1,n+1Each storage unit is programmed, verifying voltage is then used VFYTempVerified, and so on repetitive operation, until target threshold voltage be greater than the predetermined voltage each storage unit Reach intermediate state voltage.
It is predetermined no more than described to programmed and target threshold voltage is needed in storage array 108 in step S509 Each storage unit of voltage is programmed.For example, can be incited somebody to action when the line storage unit to storage array 108 is programmed Programmed and target threshold voltage is needed to be grounded no more than the channel drain terminal of each storage unit of the predetermined voltage, and incite somebody to action The channel drain terminal for each storage unit that the storage unit and target threshold voltage for not needing programming are greater than the predetermined voltage connects Supply voltage.In some embodiments, it is desirable to which programmed and target threshold voltage is not more than the storage of the predetermined voltage Unit is to need highest order that is programmed and accelerating coding codeword for the storage unit of " 1 ".
In some embodiments, can be used standard or off-gauge incremental steps pulse program (ISPP) sequence or its His programmed sequence is to needing programmed and target threshold voltage respectively depositing no more than the predetermined voltage in storage array 108 Storage unit is programmed.After the programming of each step, as shown in following step S510 and S512, one or more can be used Scan operation is verified and latched to a verifying voltage to execute programming.It will need to program by the programming pulse voltage of stairstepping The voltage of storage unit be moved to target threshold voltage from erase status, the number of the programming pulse needed and the programming of every step Depending on the specific programming situation of the foundation of verifying voltage number later.After each programming pulse applies, require using testing Card voltage currently programs the target whether voltage of storage unit has successfully been successfully moved to the storage unit to verify Threshold voltage.If the voltage of the storage unit has successfully been moved to target threshold voltage (the i.e. programming of the storage unit Success), then it needs data latches group corresponding with the storage unit latching (as shown in following step S512), and carry out Corresponding label (as shown in following step S514), to prevent the storage unit to be programmed again.
For example, with reference to 682 parts of Fig. 6 D, to needing programmed and target threshold voltage not in storage array 108 It is programmed greater than each storage unit of the predetermined voltage (that is, being " 1 " to programmed acceleration coding codeword highest order is needed Each storage unit be programmed).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 PGM2,n After being programmed, 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, then respectively using verifying voltage VFY2, VFY3, VFY4, VFY5, VFY6 with And VFY7 is verified and is carried out corresponding latch operation.If there is storage unit not yet reaches target threshold voltage, can make With next programming pulse PGM2,n+1It is programmed next time and carries out corresponding verification operation and latch operation.
In step S510, each storage unit of the predetermined voltage is not more than to target threshold voltage, executes programming Verification operation.For example, can choose verifying voltage in step S510, and verifies and be incorporated into target threshold voltage no more than institute Whether the voltage for stating each storage unit of predetermined voltage reaches the verifying voltage.The verifying electricity is had reached for voltage Corresponding voltage verification latch can be labeled as passing through state by the storage unit of pressure;Institute is had not yet been reached for voltage The storage unit of verifying voltage is stated, corresponding voltage verification latch can be labeled as not passing through state.The storage list First corresponding induction latch 216 or ephemeral data latch 212 corresponding with the storage unit can be used as the storage The voltage verification latch of unit come using.
In step 512, each storage unit of the predetermined voltage is not more than to target threshold voltage, executes to latch and sweep Retouch operation.For example, by the storage by the programming verifying and target threshold voltage of the verifying voltage for the verifying voltage The data latches group of unit is set as latch mode;And the storage unit and/or targets threshold of programming verifying will not passed through Voltage is not that the state of the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying voltage remains unchanged.
In some embodiments, in step S512, it can detecte the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit The highest order of acceleration coding codeword whether be " 1 ", detect the acceleration of the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit In coding codeword the quantity of " 0 " and position it is whether corresponding with the verifying voltage accelerate coding codeword in " 0 " quantity and position It sets consistent, and detects whether corresponding with storage unit voltage verification latch is to pass through state.If described deposit The highest order of the acceleration coding codeword of storage unit corresponding data latches group storage is " 1 ", the corresponding number of the storage unit Quantity and position the acceleration coding codeword corresponding with the verifying voltage of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of latch group storage In " 0 " quantity and position it is consistent, and the corresponding voltage verification latch of the storage unit be pass through state, setting and institute Stating the corresponding data latches group of storage unit is latch mode.However, if the corresponding data latches of the storage unit The highest order of the acceleration coding codeword of group storage is not that " 1 " and/or the corresponding data latches group of the storage unit store Accelerate coding codeword in " 0 " quantity and position it is corresponding with the verifying voltage acceleration coding codeword in " 0 " quantity and position Setting the corresponding voltage verification latch of the inconsistent and/or described storage unit is to keep the storage unit pair not by state The state for the data latches group answered is constant.
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 State operation " whether the highest order for detecting the acceleration coding codeword of the storage unit corresponding data latches group storage is ' 1 ', Detect in the acceleration coding codeword of the storage unit corresponding data latches group storage ' 0 ' quantity and position whether with institute It is consistent to state ' 0 ' quantity and position in the corresponding acceleration coding codeword of the first verifying voltage, and detects the storage unit Whether corresponding voltage verification latch is to pass through state " it may include: to charge to bus, draw high label latch;It is right Bus charges, read the storage unit and the acceleration highest order of coding codeword with the verifying voltage it is opposite The value for the data latches answered, and draw high the label latch;Read the storage unit and with the verifying electricity The value of the corresponding data latches in position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of pressure reads the label latch, and reads The value of voltage verification latch corresponding with the storage unit;It draws high in the acceleration coding codeword with the verifying voltage " 0 " The corresponding data latches in position.If data corresponding with the acceleration highest order of coding codeword of the verifying voltage The value of latch is " 1 ", and data latches corresponding with the position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of the verifying voltage Value and the value of the voltage verification latch be " 0 ", data latches group corresponding with the storage unit is set For latch mode;If the value of data latches corresponding with the acceleration highest order of coding codeword of the verifying voltage is not " 1 ", and/or value and/or the institute of data latches corresponding with the position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of the verifying voltage Stating at least one in the value of voltage verification latch is not " 0 ", the state of data latches group corresponding with the storage unit It remains unchanged.Ephemeral data latch 212 corresponding with the storage unit can be used as the label latch come using.
In step S514, each storage unit of the predetermined voltage is not more than to target threshold voltage, executes confirmation Scan operation.For example, being latched as the storage unit of latch mode for data latches group, sentencing for the storage unit is set Disconnected latch is to latch success status, to prevent the storage unit from continuing to program;Data latches group is not locked The storage unit for saving as latch mode, the storage unit is arranged judges latch to latch unsuccessful state.It is deposited with described The corresponding induction latch 216 of storage unit or ephemeral data latch 212 corresponding with the storage unit can be used as institute State judge latch come using.
In step S515, to needing programmed and target threshold voltage to be greater than the predetermined electricity in storage array 108 Each storage unit of pressure is programmed.It, can need to for example, when the line storage unit to storage array 108 is programmed Channel drain terminal ground connection of the programmed and target threshold voltage greater than each storage unit of the predetermined voltage is wanted, and will be not required to The storage unit and target threshold voltage to be programmed connect electricity no more than the channel drain terminal of each storage unit of the predetermined voltage Source voltage.In some embodiments, it is desirable to which programmed and target threshold voltage is greater than the storage unit of the predetermined voltage It is the storage unit of " 0 " to need highest order that is programmed and accelerating coding codeword.
In some embodiments, can be used standard or off-gauge incremental steps pulse program (ISPP) sequence or its Each storage of his programmed sequence to needing programmed and target threshold voltage to be greater than the predetermined voltage in storage array 108 Unit is programmed.After the programming of each step, as shown in following step S516 and S518, one or more can be used Scan operation is verified and latched to verifying voltage to execute programming.Needs are programmed by the programming pulse voltage of stairstepping The voltage of storage unit is moved to target threshold voltage from erase status, and the number of the programming pulse needed and every step program it Depending on the specific programming situation of the foundation of verifying voltage number afterwards.After each programming pulse applies, require using verifying Voltage currently programs the target the threshold whether voltage of storage unit has successfully been successfully moved to the storage unit to verify Threshold voltage.If the voltage of the storage unit has successfully been moved to target threshold voltage, (i.e. the storage unit is programmed to Function), then it needs data latches group corresponding with the storage unit latching (as shown in following step S518), and carry out phase The label (as shown in following step S520) answered, to prevent the storage unit to be programmed again.
For example, with reference to 684 parts of Fig. 6 D, to needing programmed and target threshold voltage big in storage array 108 It is programmed in each storage unit of the predetermined voltage (that is, being " 0 " to programmed acceleration coding codeword highest order is needed Each storage unit is programmed).After each programming pulse of four bit datas, multiple verifying voltages can be used and tested Card, and have corresponding latch operation after using the verifying of each verifying voltage.For example, using programming pulse PGM3,nInto After row programming, it can be verified first using verifying voltage VFY8 and carry out latch operation, then use verifying voltage VFY9 Verified and carry out latch operation, then respectively using verifying voltage VFY10, VFY11, VFY12, VFY13, VFY14 and VFY15 is verified and is carried out corresponding latch operation.If there is storage unit not yet reaches target threshold voltage, can be used Next programming pulse PGM3,n+1It is programmed next time and carries out corresponding verification operation and latch operation.
In step S516, each storage unit of the predetermined voltage is greater than to target threshold voltage, programming is executed and tests Card operation.For example, can choose verifying voltage in step S516, and verifies and be incorporated into target threshold voltage greater than described pre- Whether the voltage of each storage unit of constant voltage reaches the verifying voltage.The verifying voltage is had reached for voltage Corresponding voltage verification latch can be labeled as passing through state by storage unit;Described test is had not yet been reached for voltage The storage unit of voltage is demonstrate,proved, corresponding voltage verification latch can be labeled as not passing through state.With the storage unit Corresponding induction latch 216 or ephemeral data latch 212 corresponding with the storage unit can be used as the storage list Member voltage verification latch come using.
It will be the verifying voltage by the programming verifying of the verifying voltage and target threshold voltage in step 518 The data latches group of storage unit be set as latch mode;And the storage unit and/or mesh of programming verifying will not passed through Mark threshold voltage is not that the state of the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying voltage remains unchanged.
In some embodiments, in step S518, it can detecte the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit Acceleration coding codeword in " 0 " quantity and position it is whether corresponding with the verifying voltage accelerate coding codeword in " 0 " number Amount is consistent with position, and detects whether voltage verification latch corresponding with the storage unit is to pass through state.If The quantity of " 0 " and position and the verifying are electric in the acceleration coding codeword of the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit Press the quantity of " 0 " and position in corresponding acceleration coding codeword consistent, and the corresponding voltage verification of the storage unit latches Device is by state, and it is latch mode that data latches group corresponding with the storage unit, which is arranged,.However, if the storage The quantity of " 0 " and position are corresponding with the verifying voltage in the acceleration coding codeword of the corresponding data latches group storage of unit Accelerate the quantity of " 0 " in coding codeword and position is inconsistent and/or the corresponding voltage verification latch of the storage unit is not By state, keep the state of the corresponding data latches group of the storage unit constant.
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 ".Example Such as, aforesaid operations " detect in the acceleration coding codeword of the storage unit corresponding data latches group storage ' 0 ' quantity and Whether position is corresponding with first verifying voltage to accelerate ' 0 ' quantity and position in coding codeword consistent, and detects Whether the corresponding voltage verification latch of the storage unit is to pass through state " it may include: to charge to bus;Read institute State storage unit and the acceleration coding codeword with the verifying voltage in the position of " 0 " corresponding data latches Value, and read the value of voltage verification latch corresponding with the storage unit;It draws high and is compiled with the acceleration of the verifying voltage The corresponding data latches in position of " 0 " in code code word.If the position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of the verifying voltage The value of the value and the voltage verification latch of setting corresponding data latches is " 0 ", corresponding with the storage unit Data latches group be arranged to latch mode;If the position phase of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of the verifying voltage At least one in the value of corresponding data latches and/or the value of the voltage verification latch is not " 0 ", single with the storage The state of the corresponding data latches group of member remains unchanged.
In another example aforesaid operations " detect the acceleration coding codeword of the corresponding data latches group storage of the storage unit In ' 0 ' quantity and position it is whether corresponding with first verifying voltage accelerate coding codeword in ' 0 ' quantity and position phase Unanimously, and detect whether the corresponding voltage verification latch of the storage unit is to pass through state " may include: to bus into Row charging, draws high label latch;Read the storage unit and the acceleration coding codeword with the verifying voltage in The value of the corresponding data latches in the position of " 0 " reads the label latch, and reads corresponding with the storage unit Voltage verification latch value;Draw high the corresponding data in the position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword with the verifying voltage Latch.If the value of data latches corresponding with the position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of the verifying voltage, described The value of the value and the voltage verification latch that mark latch is " 0 ", and data corresponding with the storage unit latch Device group is arranged to latch mode;If data corresponding with the position of " 0 " in the acceleration coding codeword of the verifying voltage The value of latch, and/or it is described label latch value, and/or the voltage verification latch value at least one be not The state of " 0 ", data latches group corresponding with the storage unit remains unchanged.Nonce corresponding with the storage unit It can be used as the label latch according to latch 212 to come using induction latch 216 corresponding with the storage unit can be used as The voltage verification latch come using.

Fig. 7 A-7P 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 programmed storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3, storage unit 4 and storage unit 5 Target threshold voltage be respectively L1, L2, L3, L3 and L8;And storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3, storage list Member 4 and the code word of the corresponding data latches group of storage unit 5 storage are respectively acceleration coding codeword corresponding with L1 The corresponding acceleration coding codeword " 1100 " of " 1000 " and L2 and the corresponding acceleration coding codeword " 1001 " of L3, it is corresponding with L3 plus Fast coding codeword " 1001 " and acceleration coding codeword " 0000 " corresponding with L8.
Fig. 7 B shows voltage of each storage unit after pre-programmed.Storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 with And the highest order of the acceleration coding codeword of storage unit 4 is " 1 ", is low-voltage memory cell group;It is not right in preprogramming process Each storage unit of low-voltage memory cell group carries out pre-programmed.The highest order of the acceleration coding codeword of storage unit 5 is " 0 ", For high voltage memory cell group;In preprogramming process, pre-programmed is carried out to the storage unit 5 of high voltage memory cell group.
Fig. 7 C is shown using verifying voltage LtempVerifying is programmed to storage unit 5, verification result is shown in table In lattice 716.Verifying voltage LtempEqual to intermediate state voltage.In conjunction with chart 715 and table 716 it is found that the voltage of storage unit 5 Verifying voltage L is passed throughtempVerifying, so storage unit 5 is programmed to have arrived intermediate state voltage Ltemp
Fig. 7 D shows voltage of each storage unit of low-voltage memory cell group after first time programs.For example, storage Unit 1 is programmed into voltage L1, and storage unit 2 is programmed into voltage L2, and storage unit 3 is programmed into voltage L3 and storage is single Member 4 is programmed into voltage L2.The storage unit 5 for belonging to high voltage memory cell group does not have when low-voltage memory cell group is programmed It is programmed, keeps original voltage level.
Fig. 7 E, which is shown, is programmed verifying using each storage unit of the verifying voltage L1 to low-voltage memory cell group, Verification result is shown in table 730.In conjunction with chart 725 and table 730 it is found that each storage of low-voltage memory cell group is single The voltage of member has reached verifying voltage L1, so verifying voltage latch corresponding with each storage unit is all set to pass through State.
Fig. 7 F shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L1 (accelerating coding codeword " 1000 ") Process.Table 735 shows the voltage verification result and corresponding data of each storage unit of low-voltage memory cell group The code word of latch group storage.Since the voltage that storage unit 1 is programmed into has passed through the verifying of voltage L1, and storage unit 1 target threshold voltage is equal to verifying voltage L1 (for example, the acceleration coding codeword that the data latches group of storage unit 1 stores Identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L1, be " 1000 "), thus the data latches group of storage unit 1 from " 1000 " are latched as latch mode " 1111 " (as shown in arrow 736), and the state quilt for judging latch of storage unit 1 It is set as latching successfully.However, even if the voltage that storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 are programmed into passes through The verifying of voltage L1, but since the target threshold voltage of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is not equal to Verifying voltage L1 is (for example, the acceleration coding that the data latches group of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 stores Code word is not all identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L1), so storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 The state of data latches group remain unchanged, and the judgement of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is latched The state of device is arranged to latch unsuccessful.It is verifying voltage L1's that table 737, which shows above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage, As a result.
Since storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 are not latched as respective target threshold voltage, And the voltage of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 is verified by the programming of last voltage L1, so also It needs to choose next verifying voltage L2 and carries out encoding verification.Fig. 7 G is shown using verifying voltage L2 to low-voltage storage unit Each storage unit of group is programmed verifying, and verification result is shown in table 742.It can in conjunction with chart 740 and table 742 Know, the voltage of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 has reached verifying voltage L2, so with storage unit 2, Storage unit 3 and the corresponding verifying voltage latch of storage unit 4 are all set to pass through state;The voltage of storage unit 1 Not up to verifying voltage L2, so verifying voltage latch corresponding with storage unit 1 is arranged to not pass through state.
Fig. 7 H shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L2 (accelerating coding codeword " 1100 ") Process.Table 745 shows the voltage verification result and corresponding data of each storage unit of low-voltage memory cell group The code word of latch group storage.Since storage unit 1 has successfully reached its target threshold voltage L1 and its data latches group It is successfully latched, so storage unit 1 can't impact storage unit 1 not over the verifying of verifying voltage L2. Since the program voltage of storage unit 2 has passed through the verifying of voltage L2, and the target threshold voltage of storage unit 2 is equal to verifying Voltage L2 is (for example, the acceleration coding code for accelerating coding codeword with verifying voltage L2 that the data latches group of storage unit 2 stores Word is identical, is " 1100 "), so the data latches group of storage unit 2 is latched as latch mode " 1111 " from " 1100 " (as shown in arrow 746), and storage unit 2 judges that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.Due to storage unit 3 And the target threshold voltage of storage unit 4 is not equal to verifying voltage L2 (for example, the number of storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 It is all different according to the acceleration coding codeword of latch group storage and the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L2), so storage unit 3 And the state of the data latches group of storage unit 4 remains unchanged, and the judgement of storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 The state of latch is arranged to latch unsuccessful.It is verifying voltage that table 747, which shows above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage, The result of L2.
Since storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 are not latched as respective target threshold voltage, and store list The voltage of member 3 and storage unit 4 passes through the programming verifying of last voltage L2, so also needing to choose next verifying voltage L3 carries out encoding verification.Fig. 7 I, which is shown, is programmed verifying to each storage unit using verifying voltage L3, and verification result shows Out in table 755.In conjunction with chart 750 and table 755 it is found that the voltage of storage unit 3 has reached verifying voltage L3, so Verifying voltage latch corresponding with storage unit 3 is arranged to pass through state;Storage unit 1, storage unit 2 and storage are single The voltage of member 4 is not up to verifying voltage L3, so verifying corresponding with storage unit 1, storage unit 2 and storage unit 4 is electric Pressure latch is all set to not pass through state.
Fig. 7 J shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L3 (accelerating coding codeword " 1001 ") Process.Table 760 shows the voltage verification result and corresponding data of each storage unit of low-voltage memory cell group The code word of latch group storage.Since storage unit 1 and storage unit 2 have successfully reached its respective target threshold voltage simultaneously And its respective data latches group is also successfully latched, so storage unit 1 and storage unit 2 are not over verifying voltage The verifying of L3 can't impact storage unit 1 and storage unit 2.Since the program voltage of storage unit 3 has passed through electricity The verifying of L3 is pressed, and the target threshold voltage of storage unit 3 is equal to verifying voltage L3 (for example, the data of storage unit 3 latch The acceleration coding codeword of device group storage is identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L3, is " 1001 "), so storage unit 3 data latches group is latched as latch mode " 1111 " (as shown in arrow 762) from " 1001 ", and storage unit 3 Judge that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.Although the target threshold voltage of storage unit 4 is equal to verifying voltage L3 (example Such as, the acceleration coding codeword of the data latches group storage of storage unit 4 is identical as the acceleration coding codeword of verifying voltage L3), But the program voltage of storage unit 4 does not pass through the programming verifying of verifying voltage L3, so the data of storage unit 4 latch The state of device group remains unchanged, and storage unit 4 to judge that the state of latch is arranged to latch unsuccessful.Table 765 Show the result that above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L3.
Since storage unit 4 is not latched as its target threshold voltage, and the voltage of storage unit 4 is not over upper The programming of primary voltage L3 is verified, and is verified so no longer choosing next verifying voltage L4 to the programming of storage unit 4, and It is to carry out second to storage unit 4 to program.Fig. 7 K shows the voltage L3 after storage unit 4 is programmed at second.Due to Storage unit 4 is verified by the programming of verifying voltage L2 without being tested by the programming of verifying voltage L3 when programming for the first time Card, so can directly be verified using verifying voltage L3 to storage unit 4 when second programs rather than from verifying electricity Pressure L1 starts.
Fig. 7 L, which is shown, is programmed verifying to storage unit 4 using verifying voltage L3, and verification result is shown in table In 772.In conjunction with chart 770 and table 772 it is found that the voltage of storage unit 4 has reached verifying voltage L3, so single with storage First 4 corresponding verifying voltage latch are 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 " 1001 ") Process.Table 775 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
" 1001 "), so the data latches group of storage unit 4 is latched as latch mode " 1111 " (such as from " 1001 " Shown in arrow 776), and storage unit 4 judges that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.Table 778 is shown The latch target threshold voltage stated is the latch result of verifying voltage L3.So far, storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 And the corresponding each data latches group of storage unit 4 is successfully latched, to the storage unit 1 of low-voltage memory cell group, The programming of storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and storage unit 4 all terminates.
Fig. 7 N shows the voltage of each storage unit of high voltage memory cell group after programming.For example, 5 quilt of storage unit It is programmed into voltage L8.Storage unit 1, storage unit 2, storage unit 3 and the storage unit 4 of low-voltage memory cell group do not have It is programmed, keeps latch mode.
Fig. 7 O, which is shown, is programmed verifying using storage unit 5 of the verifying voltage L8 to high voltage memory cell group, Verification result is shown in table 786.In conjunction with chart 785 and table 786 it is found that the voltage of storage unit 5 has reached verifying Voltage L8, so verifying voltage latch corresponding with storage unit 5 is arranged to pass through state.
Fig. 7 P shows the storage unit for latching that target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L8 (accelerating coding codeword " 0000 ") Process.Table 790 shows the voltage verification result of storage unit 5 and the code word of corresponding data latches group storage. Since the voltage that storage unit 5 is programmed into has passed through the verifying of voltage L8, and the target threshold voltage of storage unit 5 is equal to Verifying voltage L8 is (for example, the acceleration volume for accelerating coding codeword with verifying voltage L8 that the data latches group of storage unit 5 stores Code code word is identical, is " 0000 "), so the data latches group of storage unit 5 is latched as latch mode from " 0000 " " 1111 " (as shown in arrow 791), and storage unit 5 judges that the state of latch is arranged to latch successfully.Table 792 Show the result that above-mentioned latch target threshold voltage is verifying voltage L8.
So far, all storage unit 1-5 are successfully latched, and are all terminated to the programming of all storage unit 1-5.
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 is to be followed successively by L1-L7 and L8-L15 according to the sequence from low-voltage to high voltage.
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 " 1000 " can detecte ADL=1, detect three " 0 " (that is, BDL=CDL=DDL=0).Similarly, for voltage L2, make When with Gray code, if L2 (" 1100 ") distinguished with L3-L15, needs to detect ADL=1, then detects BDL=1, Then CDL=DDL=0 is detected.And after using acceleration coding to recode, code word " 1100 " corresponding for L2 can detecte ADL=1, detecting two " 0 " (that is, CDL=DDL=0) can just be such that L2 distinguishes with L3-L15, because not having in L3-L15 ADL is " 1 " and CDL and DDL are the code word of " 0 ".Therefore, compared with Gray code, accelerate coding that can save at least one Sorting surveys the redundant operation of " 1 ", and program 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 " 1000 ", 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 S8003, first " 1 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=1);Step S8006, three " 0 " of detection (that is, Detect BDL=CDL=DDL=0);And step S8007, above-mentioned steps S8003 and S8006 will be met and pass through verifying voltage The data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of L1 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 S8003, S8006 and/or not by verifying voltage L1 The state of data latches group of storage unit of verifying remain unchanged.
For example, the verifying and latch of L1 (accelerating coding " 1000 ") may include following operation:
BUS charging BUS=1, draws high TDL=1.BUS charging BUS=1, reads ADL, then draw high TDL=1;If ADL=1, then TDL=0;Otherwise TDL=1.BDL, CDL, DDL, TDL, SDL are read, then draws high BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1;If BDL=0, CDL=0, DDL=0, TDL=0, SDL=0 (wherein, SDL=0 indicates that the voltage of storage unit has reached verifying voltage L1), then BDL=1, CDL=1, DDL=1;Otherwise BDL=0, CDL=0, DDL=0.
Therefore, compared to Gray code, accelerate coding that can save step S804 and S805, so that operation number subtracts It is few, 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 " 1100 ", 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 S8010, first " 1 " of detection (that is, detection ADL=1);Step S8012 detects two " 0 " (that is, detection CDL=DDL=0);And step S8013, above-mentioned steps S8010 and S8012 will be met and pass through verifying The data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of voltage L2 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 S8010, S8012 and/or not over verifying electricity The state of the data latches group of the storage unit of the verifying of L2 is pressed to remain unchanged.
For example, the verifying and latch of L2 (accelerating coding " 1100 ") may include following operation:
BUS charging BUS=1, draws high TDL=1.BUS charging BUS=1, reads ADL, then draw high TDL=1, if ADL=1, TDL=0, otherwise TDL=1.CDL, DDL, TDL, SDL are read, then draws high CDL=1, DDL=1;If CDL=0, DDL=0, TDL= 0, SDL=0, then CDL=1, DDL=1, otherwise CDL=0, DDL=0.
Therefore, compared to Gray code, accelerate coding that can save step 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.
