Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To read a memory cell having a charge-trapping structure by measuring the current between the substrate area of the memory all and one of the source area and the drain area of the memory cell. SOLUTION: When the other sections of the charge-trapping structure store unrelated data, the read operation reduces the coupling between the other sections different in the charge-trapping structure. The detection window of the memory cell is significantly improved by this read operation. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
