Summary :

A boosted bit line program scheme is proposed for low operating voltage in the multi-level-cell (MLC) NAND flash memory. Our BL to BL boosting scheme, which uses the BL coupling capacitance, is applied to achieve a higher channel potential than is possible with Vcc, so that the Vpass window margin is improved by up to 59% in 40 nm MLC NAND flash memory with 2.7 V Vcc. In the case of 1.8 V Vcc, the margin of the proposed scheme is 12% higher than one of the conventional schemes at 2.7 V Vcc.
