Description

Semiconductor memory device and the method of programming the same

The present invention relates to a semiconductor memory device and a program method thereof.

A semiconductor memory device is a memory device that stores data and can be read when needed. Semiconductor memory devices are roughly divided into random access memory (RAM) and read only memory (ROM). Data stored in RAM is destroyed when power supply is interrupted. This type of memory is called volatile memory. On the other hand, the data stored in the ROM does not disappear even if the power supply is interrupted. This type of memory is called nonvolatile memory.

Recently, in order to further improve the integration degree of a semiconductor memory device, a multi-level cell programmable to a plurality of threshold voltage levels has been developed. In comparison, a memory cell programmable to a single threshold voltage level is referred to as a single level cell.

As the threshold voltage level of the multi-level cell increases, the data storage capacity of the memory cell increases. When a plurality of memory cells are programmed to a specific threshold voltage level, the threshold voltages of the memory cells are not the same but are distributed at various levels.

In addition, the interval between neighboring threshold voltage distributions is becoming narrower.

Therefore, the semiconductor memory device is intended to increase the reliability of data by narrowing the width of threshold voltage distribution of memory cells.

A representative method for this is the Increment Step Pulse Program (ISPP) method.

The ISPP method is a program method for applying a program voltage while increasing the unit voltage from the start voltage Vstart in units of step voltages Vstep. After each program execution, program verification is performed to exclude memory cells passed by the program from subsequent program operations.

1A and 1B illustrate a general ISPP program.

FIG. 1A illustrates a voltage applied to a word line selected for a program, and FIG. 1B illustrates a threshold voltage distribution of memory cells formed according to a program execution result.

1A and 1B, a program start voltage Vstart is initially applied to a word line selected for a program.

The program start voltage is applied for a time t1, after which the program verify voltage Vverify is applied.

After the program verification is completed, the program is applied by applying a voltage increased by the step voltage Vstep from the initial program start voltage Vstart, and the program verification is repeated again.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 1B, the threshold voltages of the memory cells in the sour state become high to generate a threshold voltage distribution above the verify voltage Vverify.

When the program is executed in the ISPP method as described above, the width of the threshold voltage distribution of the memory cells can be narrowed. However, since memory cells have fast cells that are programmed fast and slow cells that are slow programmed according to their characteristics, there is a limit in narrowing the threshold voltage distribution.

A semiconductor memory device according to an embodiment of the present invention provides a program method of a semiconductor memory device in which a program voltage and a verification voltage are differently applied to a slow cell and a fast cell to perform a program to narrow a width of a threshold voltage distribution.

The gates of the 0th to 31st memory cells C0 to C31 are connected to the 0th to 31st word lines WL0 to WL31, respectively.

The drains of the drain select transistors DST are connected to bit lines, respectively. The bit line is divided into an even bit line (BLe) and an odd bit line (BLo).

The source of the source select transistor SST is commonly connected to a common source line SL.

The page buffer group 120 includes a plurality of page buffers PBs that operate for a program or a read operation.

Each page buffer PB is connected to one even bit line BLe and an odd bit line BLO pair. Each page buffer PB includes a plurality of latches.

The Y decoder 140 provides an input / output path between the page buffer group 120 and the input / output logic 150 in response to the control signal from the control logic 170.

The input / output logic 150 performs data input / output with the outside.

The X decoder 130 includes a plurality of block selection circuits 131. Each block selection circuit 131 is connected to each memory block BK.

In response to a control signal from the control logic 170, the block selection circuit 131 may include the drain select line DSL, the source select line SSL, and the 0 th to 31 th word lines of the memory block BK. WL0 to WL31 may be replaced by a global source select line (GSSL), a global drain select line (GDSL), and zeroth to thirty-first global word lines of the voltage supply circuit 160. Line GWL0 to GWL31).

The voltage supply circuit 160 generates an operating voltage in response to the control signal from the control logic 170 and provides the generated operating voltage to the global lines GSSL, GDSL, GWL0 to GWL31.

The control logic 170 is used to control the operation of the page buffer group 120, the X decoder 130, the Y decoder 140, the input / output logic 150, and the voltage supply circuit 160 of the semiconductor memory device 100. Output a control signal.

The page buffer PB is as follows.

FIG. 2B briefly illustrates the page buffer of FIG. 2A.

Referring to FIG. 2B, the page buffer PB includes a bit line selector 121, a precharge unit 122, and first and second latches 123 and 124.

The first and second latches 123 and 124 store data input for a program or read and temporarily store data stored in a memory cell.

The first latch 123 is connected to the IO line through the Y decoder 130. Therefore, data to be programmed is input to the first latch 123.

Meanwhile, the program operation of the semiconductor memory device according to the embodiment of the present invention is performed as follows.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a program method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

3 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2A and 2B.

When a program command is input (S301), the control logic 170 controls the data to be programmed to be input to the first latch 123 of the page buffer PB.

The data to be programmed input to the first latch 123 is also copied to the second latch 124.

The control logic 170 first executes a first program for applying a first program voltage Vpgm1 to the selected word line (S303). When executing the first program, the program according to the data stored in the second latch 124 of the page buffer is executed.

The first program voltage Vpgm is a program voltage applied for fast cells. Therefore, the fast cells are programmed faster by the first program voltage Vpgm, but the slow cells are slower to program.

Therefore, the programmed fast cells are prohibited from program until the threshold voltage of the slow cell becomes higher than the first program verify voltage Vverify1.

After the first program, the first program verification using the first program verify voltage Vverify1 is performed (S305). The first program verify voltage Vverify1 is a voltage gradually rising from the first voltage V1.

That is, like the first program voltage Vpgm, the first program verify voltage Vverify also gradually increases. At this time, the result of the first program verification is also stored in the second latch 124.

If the threshold voltage of the memory cell is to be increased to the second voltage V2 level according to the program command of step S301, the first program verify voltage Vverify1 is set to a second voltage V1 at a lower first voltage V1. Until the voltage gradually rises.

The result of the first program verification does not need to confirm that a pass has been made. The verification of the first program is to exclude the fast cell when executing the second program. That is, the fast cell that has become a program pass in the first program verification is program inhibited in the second program operation.

The second program is executed by applying the second program voltage Vpgm2 (S307). At this time, the program is executed according to the data stored in the second latch 124. Accordingly, a memory cell, that is, a fast cell programmed to have a threshold voltage equal to or greater than the first program verify voltage Vverify1 when the first program is executed is program inhibited in the second program operation.

After performing the second program, program verification using the second program verification voltage Vverify2 is performed (S309). The result of the second program verify is stored in the first latch 123. The second program verify voltage Vverify2 is not changed to the second voltage V2 level.

It is determined whether the second program verification result is a pass according to data stored in the first latch 123. If the result of the program verification passes, the program operation ends.

However, if the program verification result does not pass, it is determined whether the first verification voltage Vverify1 and the second verification voltage Vverify2 are the same voltage. That is, it is determined whether the first verify voltage Vverify1 has risen to the second voltage V2 level.

When the first verify voltage Vverify1 and the second verify voltage Vverify2 are not equal to each other, the first program voltage Vpgm1, the first program verify voltage Vverify1, and the second program voltage Vpgm2 are increased by the respective step voltages. (S315).

In an embodiment of the present invention, the first program voltage Vpgm1 is increased in units of the first step voltage Vstep1, and the second program voltage Vpgm2 is raised in units of the second step voltage Vstep2. The first program verify voltage Vverify1 is raised in units of a third step voltage Vstep3.

As a result of the second program verification, the first latch 123 stores the verification result by the second program verification voltage Vverify2. The second latch 124 stores the verification result by the first program verify voltage Vverify1.

In an embodiment of the present invention, an object of the present invention is to program a threshold voltage of memory cells higher than a second program verify voltage Vverify2.

Therefore, after raising the first and second program voltages Vpgm1 and Vpgm2 and the first program verify voltage Vverify1 in step S315, the data of the first latch 123 is copied to the second latch 124. Accordingly, the data of the second latch 124 is changed to the verification result by the second program verify voltage Vverify2. Previously programmed memory cells having a threshold voltage higher than the first program verify voltage Vverify1 are also programmed in the second program operation.

After copying the data of the first latch 123 to the second latch 124, the first program is executed again (S303). At this time, the first program voltage Vpgm1 is the voltage increased in step S315. The first program verify voltage Vverify1 in the first program verify performed after the first program is also increased in step S315.

The operations of steps S303 to S317 are repeated until the first and second program verify voltages Vverify1 and Vverify2 become equal.

If the first and second program verify voltages Vverify1 and Vverify2 become equal in step S315, the first program does not proceed any further.

Only the second program voltage is increased (S321), and the second program is executed (S323). At this time, the program according to the data of the first latch 123 is executed.

In operation S325, program verification using the second program verification voltage Vverify2 is performed. If the program verification result of step S325 passes (S327), the program ends.

If the program verification result in step S325 has not passed, the process is repeated again from step S321.

That is, after the first program verify voltage Vverify1 becomes equal to the second program verify voltage Vverify2, only the second program proceeds, and the first program no longer proceeds.

When the first program verify voltage Vverify1 is equal to the second program verify voltage Vverify2, the threshold voltage of the fast cell is increased close to the second program verify voltage Vverify2. Therefore, there is no need to distinguish between fast cells and slow cells afterwards.

4 illustrates a program pulse provided by the operation of FIG. 3.

Referring to FIG. 4, a first program is first performed, program verification is performed, and program pulses for performing the second program and verification are applied.

Pulses marked with hatched in FIG. 4 represent the first program and verification, and blackened pulses represent the second program and verification.

As a result of the determination of step S321 of FIG. 3, when the first and second program verify voltages Vverify1 and Vverify2 become equal, only pulses for the second program and the verify are applied.

The first program and the verification according to an embodiment of the present invention are intended to slow down the program speed of fast cells. And the second program and verify is performed for slow cells.

Accordingly, the program speed of the fast cells is controlled similarly to the slow cell. If the program rates of the fast and slow cells are controlled similarly, the width of the threshold voltage distribution is also narrowed.

Although the technical spirit of the present invention described above has been described in detail in a preferred embodiment, it should be noted that the above-described embodiment is for the purpose of description and not of limitation. In addition, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various embodiments of the present invention are possible within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
