In this paper, we present the first-ever commercially available embedded Microcontrollers built on 90nm-node with silicon nanocrystal memories that has intrinsic capability of exceeding 500K program/erase cycles. We also show that the cycling performance across temperature (-40C to 125C) is very well behaved even while maintaining high performance that meets or exceeds the requirements of consumer,...
We show a 90nm nanocrystal-based split gate embedded flash memory that is able to meet the speed, endurance and reliability requirements for 32-bit microcontroller products. A 3.4V operating window is achievable and the process is robust and repeatable across many lots. Erase after 10k cycles can be achieved in 5ms, long-term data retention of cycled arrays is not susceptible to SILC-induced charge...
This paper reports on recent bitcell optimizations that improve drive current and program performance. The 16 Mb and 32 Mb array results are best to-date for nanocrystal memories and suggest a robust, reliable array operation.
Before performing drastic changes to a project, it is worthwhile to thoroughly explore the available options within the current structure of a project. An alternative to drastic change are internal changes that adjust current options within a software project. In this paper, we show that the effects of numerous internal changes can out-weigh the effects of drastic changes. That is, the benefits of...
