Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a NOR flash memory programming method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The NOR flash memory includes: the programming method of the memory unit and the NOR flash memory comprises the following steps:
step 101: a programming operation instruction is received.
In an embodiment of the present invention, a NOR flash memory includes: the memory cell, the memory cell stores the memory cell of the write-in data in NOR flash memory, when NOR flash memory carries out the programming operation, the memory cell threshold voltage is the programming unit only if the memory cell greater than the programming verification voltage; only memory cells with a threshold voltage less than the erase verify voltage are erase cells.
The NOR flash memory receives a programming operation instruction sent by an upper computer, the programming operation instruction may include an address of a memory cell to be programmed, namely, a memory cell needing to write data to be programmed into a specified address, and the programming operation refers to the whole process from the time of receiving the programming operation instruction to the time of correctly writing the data to be programmed into the memory cell. The above description is not limited in detail by the embodiments of the present invention, and the embodiments may be set according to actual situations.
Step 102: and judging whether the threshold voltage of the memory cell to be programmed is smaller than a preset value.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the NOR flash memory receives the programming operation instruction, whether the threshold voltage of the memory cell to be programmed is smaller than the preset value is judged, the preset value is obtained by combining a large number of simulation tests, actual tests, empirical formula calculation and other modes, and after the memory cell with the threshold voltage larger than the preset value is subjected to normal programming operation, the threshold voltage after the normal programming operation is very high, and even the programming data is wrong. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited in detail, and may be set according to actual situations.
Step 103 a: and if the threshold voltage is greater than the preset value, executing a low-voltage programming operation on the memory cell to be programmed with the threshold voltage greater than the preset value, wherein the voltage of the low-voltage programming operation is less than that of the normal programming operation.
In the embodiment of the invention, if the threshold voltage of the memory cell to be programmed is greater than the preset value, the NOR flash memory executes low-voltage programming operation on the memory cell, the voltage of the low-voltage programming operation is smaller than the voltage of the normal programming operation, the value of the voltage of the low-voltage programming operation is the value obtained by subtracting the target voltage value from the voltage value of the normal programming operation, the target voltage value is the reduced value of the voltage of the normal programming operation, which can prevent the memory cell to be programmed, of which the threshold voltage is greater than the preset value, from being excessively high after the normal programming operation is executed, and the target voltage value is obtained through a large number of actual tests. Assuming that the preset value is 2.8V, the threshold voltage of a memory cell is 3.0V, and the threshold voltage should be 4.0V after the programming operation is successful, but after the normal programming operation is performed, the threshold voltage of the memory cell becomes 5.0V after the normal programming voltage is 2.0V, which is greater than the threshold voltage that should be reached after the programming operation is successful, and the low-voltage programming operation is performed, and the threshold voltage of the memory cell becomes 4.0V after the low-voltage programming voltage is 1.0V, which is programmed successfully, so that the target voltage value is 1.0V. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited in detail, and may be set according to actual situations.
Optionally, after step 102, the method for programming the NOR flash memory further includes:
step 103 b: and if the threshold voltage is smaller than the preset value, executing normal programming operation on the memory cell to be programmed with the threshold voltage smaller than the preset value.
In the embodiment of the invention, for one-time programming operation, only one or more corresponding to-be-programmed memory cells may be provided, for the case of only one memory cell, the threshold voltage is either smaller than a preset value or larger than the preset value, when the threshold voltage is larger than the preset value, a low-voltage programming operation is performed, and when the threshold voltage is smaller than the preset value, a normal programming operation is performed; when a plurality of memory cells exist, the threshold voltages of the plurality of memory cells are less than a preset value, and are greater than the preset value, a low-voltage programming operation is performed on the memory cells with the threshold voltages greater than the preset value, and a normal programming operation is performed on the memory cells with the threshold voltages less than the preset value. Therefore, when the programming operation is finally completed, the threshold voltage of the programmed memory cell cannot become very high, and the threshold voltage distribution of the programmed memory cell is concentrated, so that the threshold voltage distribution of the memory cell corresponding to the next programming operation and the threshold voltage distribution of the memory cell corresponding to the current programming operation cannot be overlapped. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited in detail, and may be set according to actual situations.
Optionally, referring to fig. 3, after step 103a or 103b, the method further comprises:
step 104: an erase operation instruction is received.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the NOR flash memory executes the over-programming operation and needs to execute the erasing operation, the NOR flash memory firstly receives the erasing operation instruction which comprises the address of the memory unit to be erased. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited in detail, and may be set according to actual situations.
Step 105 a: and performing a first erasing operation on the memory cells which perform the low-voltage programming operation, wherein the time required by the first erasing operation is a first time.
In the embodiment of the invention, if the memory unit to be erased executes the undervoltage programming operation, the NOR flash memory executes the erasing operation (i.e. the first erasing operation) on the memory unit executing the undervoltage programming operation, and a certain time (i.e. the first time) is required for finishing the erasing operation. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited in detail, and may be set according to actual situations.
Step 105 b: and performing a second erasing operation on the memory cells which are not subjected to the low-voltage programming operation, wherein the time required by the second erasing operation is a second time, and the first time is less than the second time.
In the embodiment of the invention, if the memory cell to be erased does not execute the low-voltage programming operation, the NOR flash memory executes the erasing operation (i.e. the second erasing operation) on the memory cell which does not execute the low-voltage programming operation, and a certain time (i.e. the second time) is required for finishing the erasing operation. For the same memory cell, the threshold voltage after the programming operation is lower than the threshold voltage after the normal programming operation is performed, and according to the erasing operation and the characteristics of the NOR flash memory, the time (namely, the first time) required for performing the erasing operation on the memory cell performing the low-voltage programming operation is shorter than the time (namely, the second time) required for performing the erasing operation on the memory cell performing the normal programming operation, namely, the first time is shorter than the second time. For example, a memory cell of 3.0V with a predetermined value of 2.8V has a threshold voltage of 5.0V after a normal program operation and a threshold voltage of 4.0V after a low voltage program operation, and thus, it takes a shorter time to perform an erase operation from a voltage of 4.0V than to perform an erase operation from a voltage of 5.0V when an erase operation is performed. The embodiment of the present invention is not limited in detail, and may be set according to actual situations.
Referring to fig. 4, a diagram of threshold distribution of memory cells performing a low voltage programming operation according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where Vh is a preset value, Vread is a read operation, Vpv is a program verify voltage, a horizontal axis is a threshold voltage, a vertical axis is a memory cell distribution, vpgm is a voltage of a normal programming operation, Δ v is a target voltage value, and vpgm- Δ v are voltages of a low voltage programming operation. The solid line 1 is a threshold voltage distribution curve of a memory cell to be programmed, the solid line 2 is a threshold voltage distribution curve after performing the low-voltage programming operation and the normal programming operation, and the dotted line 3 is a threshold voltage distribution curve after performing the normal programming operation corresponding to the solid line 1.
The NOR flash memory receives a programming operation instruction sent by an upper computer, the programming operation instruction comprises an address of a memory cell to be programmed, a threshold voltage distribution curve of the memory cell to be programmed is shown as a solid line 1 in FIG. 4, after a normal programming operation is performed on the memory cell (the voltage of the normal programming operation is vpgm), the threshold voltage of the memory cell after the normal programming operation becomes very high, the curve is shown as a dotted line 3 in FIG. 4, the threshold voltage of a part of the memory cells in the memory cell to be programmed is greater than a preset value Vh, as shown by the right side of a point 4 in FIG. 4, the threshold voltage is greater than the preset value, the NOR flash memory performs a low-voltage programming operation on the memory cell with the threshold voltage greater than the preset value, the voltage is vpgm- Δ v, the NOR flash memory performs a normal programming operation on the memory cell with the threshold voltage less than the preset value, the voltage is vpgm, and after the low-voltage programming operation and, the curves corresponding to the memory cell to be programmed after the low voltage program operation and the normal program operation are obtained, as shown by the solid line 2 in fig. 4. The voltage of the rightmost point 5 in the solid line 2 is smaller than the voltage of the rightmost point 6 in the dotted line 3, the rightmost point 5 in the solid line 2 is the maximum value of the threshold voltage of the memory cell after the low-voltage programming operation, and the rightmost point 6 in the dotted line 3 is the maximum value of the threshold voltage of the memory cell after only the normal programming operation, so that it can be known that the threshold voltage distribution of the memory cell after the low-voltage programming operation is more concentrated and no error occurs, thereby improving the programming performance of the NOR flash memory.
After the programming operation is completed, if the erasing operation needs to be executed, an erasing operation instruction is firstly received, the erasing operation instruction comprises the address of the memory unit to be erased, according to the address, the time for executing the erasing operation on the memory unit which executes the low-voltage programming operation is shorter than the time for executing the erasing operation on the memory unit which executes the normal programming operation for the same memory unit, for example, the erasing operation is executed on the point 5 and the point 6 in fig. 4, because the voltage of the point 5 is less than that of the point 6, the time for executing the erasing operation on the point 5 is shorter than that of executing the erasing operation on the point 6, and therefore, the erasing performance of the NOR flash memory is improved.
