Problems solved by technology

If the pre-stored margin value level is changed, it is possible to reduce the accuracy of the data
[0013] In addition, when performing a program operation, even in one chip, the program processing speed in a module may vary for each page
In another chip, this programming processing speed may vary based on the manufacturing process and characteristics of the device

Abstract

A nonvolatile memory device and a method for controlling the same are provided relating to a flash memory device. The nonvolatile memory device includes a page buffer configured to store program bits, an incremental step pulse program (ISPP) control unit configured to count the program bits stored in the page buffer and control ISPP levels differently depending on change of the program bits, and an ISPP driving unit configured to drive an ISPP voltage in response to an output signal of the ISPP control unit.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to non-volatile memory devices and methods for controlling the same, and more particularly, the present invention relates to methods for controlling Incremental Step Pulse Programming (ISPP) in flash memory devices The technique of operation. Background technique [0002] A semiconductor memory device is a memory device configured to store data and read the stored data when necessary. Generally, semiconductor memory devices may include volatile memory devices and nonvolatile memory devices. [0003] Volatile memory devices lose stored data when power is not supplied. In such a volatile memory device, data reading and writing are fast, but when the volatile memory device is not powered, the stored data is erased. [0004] Nonvolatile memory devices retain stored data even when power is not applied. Therefore, a nonvolatile memory device retains data regardless of whether it is supplied with power. [0005] Ex...
