Flash EPROM Programming Current
An n-channel FLASH EPROM cell is programmed by hot-carrier gate current. The device parameters are V_T = 0.7 \ V, x_j = 0.2 \ μm, W = 100 \ μm, L = 0.5 \ μm , and ( V_{FB} + 2\left|\phi _p\right| ) = -0.2 \ V . For simplicity, treat the device as a MOSFET with an extra capacitor in series with the normal gate capacitor. That is, assume that the floating-gate voltage is given by the voltage divider composed of C_{GS} and the control-to-floating-gate capacitor. Assume that the floating gate does not carry any charge initially and estimate the programming current immediately after the MOSFET is biased by applied voltages V_{GS} = 10 \ V and V_{DS} = 5 \ V .
