Description
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, and more particularly, to a bit line driving circuit and a nonvolatile memory circuit.
Background
NVM (Non-Volatile Memory) requires many driving circuits to Control the operation of the Non-Volatile Memory, and the driving circuits are used to Control Word Lines (WL), Control Gates (CG), Bit Lines (BL), Source Lines (SL) and Select gates (SL) to Control the bias voltages of the Non-Volatile Memory during various operations, including programming, deleting and reading operations.
Fig. 1 shows a BL driver circuit 1 '(bit line driver circuit) and an SL driver circuit 2' (source line driver circuit) in the related art. As shown in fig. 1, in the read mode, the source of the first PMOS transistor P1 is connected to a voltage source VCC, when the gate input voltage of the first PMOS transistor P1 is a low level value (e.g., 0V), the first PMOS transistor P1 is turned on, and the voltage of the voltage source VCC is transmitted to the bit line BL through the drain thereof to complete pre-charging (pre-charging), and then when the gate input voltage of the first PMOS transistor P1 is a high level value (e.g., 3.3V), the first PMOS transistor P1 is turned off, and when the select gate SG selects the memory cell, the second PMOS transistor P2, the third PMOS transistor P3, and the first NMOS transistor N1 are turned on, and the sense amplifier circuit 3' obtains a read signal through the bit line BL via the second PMOS transistor P2, the third PMOS transistor P3, and the first NMOS transistor N1. Normally, Vg (gate voltage) of the PMOS transistor is 0.7V, and when the voltage source VCC exceeds 1.5V, the sense amplifier circuit 3' can increase the reading speed through the second PMOS transistor P2 and the third PMOS transistor P3. However, when the voltage source VCC is lowered (e.g., 1.2V or 1V), the lower voltage source VCC input lowers the transfer speed from the bit line BL to the Sense Amplifier circuit 3' (Sense Amplifier, SA), thereby affecting the read speed.
