DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention generally relates to a flash memory device and, more particularly, to a page buffer for verifying a flash memory device. Method, which can reduce the stylization or erase verification time and shorten the total drive time. [Prior Art] In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for semiconductor memory devices in which the semiconductor memory devices can be electrically programmed and erased and the function of rewriting data is not required to be updated at regular intervals. Furthermore, memory cells of highly integrated technology have been developed to develop large-capacity memory devices capable of storing large amounts of data. To increase the integration of the memory cells, a NAND flash memory device can have a plurality of cells concatenated to form a string and share two strings of one contact. In the N AND flash memory device, by controlling the threshold voltage of the memory cell while tunneling through the FN to inject electrons into and out of the floating gate. Stylized and erased. Thus, since the electrons of the floating gate are released from the cell, an erasing cell has a negative threshold voltage. Since the electrons are injected into the floating gate, a stylized unit has a positive threshold voltage. However, in the case of the NAND flash memory device, malfunction may occur due to charge acquisition and charge loss. Some verification of these characteristics can be implemented. A page buffer was used to verify that stylization and erasure were performed normally. 1310561 The page buffer is used to receive large-capacity data from an I/O pad and supply the received data to a memory cell or a memory cell and then output the stored data. In the past, the page buffer was constructed from a single register to temporarily store data. The page buffer is now constructed by a dual register to increase the stylized speed when programming large amounts of data in the NAND flash memory device. To perform erase verification of a NAND flash memory device having a page buffer of the dual register structure, a line scanning method for confirming whether all cells have been turned on by applying a voltage of 0 V to all word lines is used. In this line scan method, if a unit is turned off, it is determined that it is malfunctioning. To erase the verification, an erase bit verification is performed on a selected bit line via three steps (including pre-charging, evaluation, and sensing) in the same manner as a normal read operation. In the line scanning method, the verification is performed by dividing the bit lines into even bit lines and odd bit lines. Thus, after verifying the even bit lines, the odd bit lines are verified. Therefore, the verification process has been performed via two verification procedures. This results in a long erase verification time. At the same time, in a multi-level cell, the threshold voltage distribution of a wiper unit has an effect on the threshold voltage of a stylized cell. Thus, a post-programming is performed on a unit that has been erased. The post-programming is performed by using an IS PP method and the erasure verification is performed after the post-stylization. Then 'if the erase verification becomes longer, the total erase time is extended. Furthermore, while stylizing, the programmatic verification time is extended in the same manner as described above. As a result, the total stylization time becomes longer. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, this patent addresses the above problems and discloses a method of verifying a fast 1310561 flash memory device, wherein the method can shorten the verification time and shorten the total driving time. The present patent further discloses a method of verifying a flash memory device in which an even bit line and an odd bit line are simultaneously precharged and evaluated and then continuously sensed, thereby reducing the verification time. The present patent further discloses a method of verifying a flash memory device, wherein the method can simultaneously pre-charge and evaluate even bit lines and odd bit lines by simultaneously pre-charging and then continuously sensing the Wait for even bit lines and odd bit lines to reduce the verification time by half and thus reduce the total drive time by 2/3.

A PMOS transistor P101 is driven in response to a precharge signal PRECHb and thus a voltage is applied to the sense node S. - The fifth NMOS transistor N105 is coupled to the sense node SO and one of the output nodes QAb of a latch 130 in response to a writeback signal C0PYBACK at the time of a write stylization. The latch 130 temporarily stores the output data output by the memory cell array 110 and the externally supplied data. A sixth NM0S transistor N106 is driven according to a voltage level of the sensing node SO. A seventh NM0S transistor N107 is driven in response to a read signal READ-L and thus an output node QAb of the latch 130 and a ground terminal Vss.

Further, an inverter 1101 reverses the voltage level of the output node QAb of the latch 130 and transmits a reverse voltage level to the stylized node NA. 2 is a diagram showing operational waveforms of a page buffer for a method of verifying a NAND flash memory device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. -10- 1310561 An erase verification method for a NAND flash memory device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. 1) Period A: Discharge simultaneously applies even and odd discharge signals DISCHe and DISCHo of a high level of 1.6 to 5.5 V or a supply voltage Vcc for the same period to turn on the first and second NMOS transistors N101 and N102 . Thus, the voltage levels of the verify signal VIRPWR are supplied to the bit lines BLe and BLo via the first and second NMOS transistors N101 and N102. The verify signal VIRPWR maintains a voltage level of 0V during erase verify. Thus, the even and odd bit lines BLe and BLo are supplied with a voltage of 0V. Further, the reset signal RES ET-L is supplied to a high level pulse to turn on the tenth NMOS transistor N110. Therefore, the node QA becomes a low level and the node QAb maintains a high level. As a result, the latch 130 is reset. At this time, a voltage of 0 to 1 V is supplied to all of the word lines WL0 to WL3 1, and a voltage of 0 V is also supplied to the drain selection line DSL and the source selection line SSL. 2) Period B: Precharge When the even and odd discharge signals DISCHe and DISCHo of the low level are applied, the first and second NMOS transistors N101 and N102 are turned off. Furthermore, since the low level of the precharge signal PRECHb is applied, the first PMOS transistor P101 is turned on. Thus, the supply voltage Vcc is applied to the sense node SO to maintain the sense node SO at a high level. Further, the even and odd bit line selection signals BSLe and BSLo are applied to a voltage level of 1. 至 to 5.5 V or a first voltage VI of the power supply voltage Vcc. Therefore, the first voltage VI and a voltage (VI-Vth) are respectively applied to the even and Ι31〇561 odd bit lines BLe and BLo, wherein the first voltage VI is subtracted from the third or fourth NMOS transistor N103 Or the threshold voltage Vt of N104. In this case, a voltage is applied to the drain select line DSL. 3) Period C: Evaluation When the even and odd bit line selection signals BSLe and 'BSLo of the low level are applied, the third and fourth NMOS transistors N103 and N104 are turned off. Thus, the power supply to the even and odd bit lines BLe and BLo is stopped, and the even and odd bit lines are controlled according to the states of the memory φ body cells respectively connected to the even and odd bit lines BLe and BLo. The voltage level of BLe and BLo. That is, if the memory cell is not in an erased state, the voltage level of the even or odd bit line BLe or BLo is maintained at the voltage level of V1-Vt. However, if the memory cell is in an erased state, the voltage level of the even or odd bit line BLe or BLo is gradually reduced from Vl - Vt and then maintained at a low level. At this time, since the first PMOS transistor P101 is kept turned on by the low level precharge signal PRECHb, the sense node SO maintains a high level. At the same time, a high level ^ signal is applied via a drain select line DSL and a source select line SSL. Set the unit evaluation period to maintain 1〇μ3 or less. 4) Period D: Even cell sensing The first PMOS transistor P201 is turned off when the precharge signal PRECHb is applied to a high level. When the second voltage V2 is applied (the second voltage V2 maintains a voltage level of about 1 〇 to 2.2 V) to the even bit line selection signal BSLe, the third NMOS transistor N103 is turned on. If the memory cell is not a eraser unit, the voltage level of the even bit line BLe is maintained at V; the voltage level of l - Vt is maintained and the voltage level of the sense node SO is maintained at -12 - 1310561 To a high level. If the memory cell is in an erased state, the voltage level of the even bit line BLe is gradually reduced and then maintained at a low level, and the voltage level of the sensing node SO is maintained at a low level. In this state, if a high level pulse is applied to the read signal READ_L of 1. 0μ5, when the memory cell is not an erase unit, the sense node SO is kept at a high level. quasi. Then, the sixth NMOS transistor N106 is turned on and the seventh NMOS transistor N107 is turned on in response to the high pulse read signal READ_L. As a result, the point QAb is maintained at a low φ level and the node QA is maintained at a high level. Conversely, if the memory cell is the erase unit, the sense node SO is maintained at a low level and the seventh NMOS transistor N107 is turned off. Therefore, the node QA is maintained at a high level and the node QA is maintained at a low level. Thus, the voltage level of the node QA is detected to sense the state of the even cells. 5) Period E: Odd unit sensing When the even bit line selection signal BSLe of the low level is applied, the third NMOS transistor N103 is turned off. When the odd bit line selection signal BSLo which becomes a third voltage V3 (the third voltage V3 is maintained at a voltage level of about 1. 〇 to 2.2V) is applied, the fourth NMOS transistor N104 is turned on. The application time required for the third voltage V3 to be lower than or equal to the second voltage V2 and the third voltage V3 is shorter than the application time of the second voltage V2. If the memory cell is not a erase cell, the voltage level of the odd bit line BLo is maintained at a voltage level of V 1 -Vt and the voltage level of the sense node SO is maintained at a high level. However, if the memory cell is in an erased state, the voltage level of the odd bit line BLo is gradually reduced and then maintained at a low level of -13 - 1310561, and the voltage level of the sensing node so is Keeping it in a low state, in this state, the read signal READ_L is applied to a high level of 1.0 to ΙΟμΞ. If the memory cell is not the erase unit, the sense node SO remains at a high level. Then, the sixth transistor N106 is turned on and the seventh NMOS transistor N107 is turned on to return the pulse read signal READ_L. Since the node QAb is kept accurate, the node QA is kept at a certain level. Conversely, the cell is the erase unit, and the sense node S 0 is kept at a low level to close the seventh NMOS transistor N07. Therefore, the node QAb is kept at a high level and the node QA is kept at a low level. Thus, the voltage level of the QA is detected to sense the state of the odd cells. One of the erase verification methods of the NAND fast device according to an embodiment of the present invention has been described above. However, the method can be applied to a stylized verification method. Thus, the description of this method is omitted. As described above, the pre-charge and evaluation are followed by continuous even bit lines and odd bit lines. Thus, less than half of the verification time is erased compared to the prior art and the total amount can be reduced compared to the prior art. Therefore, the operating speed of a device can be improved. Furthermore, this method applies the same way to stylized verification. Therefore, it is also possible to reduce the stylization. While the above description has been made with reference to the various embodiments, the modifications and variations of the present invention can be implemented by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Fig. 1 is a verification standard in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In the pulse, the NM0S should be high and low. The memory is quasi-and closed. The node is flash memory. The same way, the detailed sensing can be subtracted. Understand the project
