Description

Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of memory processing technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for write processing of a nonvolatile memory.
Background
With the development of various electronic devices, embedded systems, and the like, nonvolatile memory devices have been developed. For example, a non-volatile Memory NAND Flash (NAND Flash Memory) is taken as an example, and the NAND Flash stores data by performing read-write operation on a Memory cell (Memory cell), has the advantages of high rewriting speed, large storage capacity and the like, and is widely used in electronic products. In each Block of the nonvolatile memory, there are a plurality of WL (Word line) s.
In the prior art, when writing to the NAND flash memory, a conventional initial programming voltage is usually applied to each selected WL to be programmed, and then the initial programming voltage is increased continuously until the writing to the WL is realized. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, a larger program voltage VPGM _ INI is applied to WL0, if a write operation is not completed, a voltage of VPGM _ INI plus VPGM _ STEP is applied to WL0, where VPGM _ STEP is a STEP voltage increment, and if a write operation is not yet completed, a voltage of VPGM _ INI plus two VPGM _ STEPs is applied to WL0, and so on, thereby implementing a write operation.

Therefore, when the nonvolatile memory is read, a target programming word line is determined in a memory block to be processed, the programming voltage compensation amount of the target programming word line is determined, and a first programming voltage is applied to the target programming word line initially; and the first programming voltage is: the difference between the preset programming voltage and the compensation amount of the programming voltage, that is, the first programming voltage is obtained by subtracting the compensation amount of the programming voltage of the target programming word line from the preset programming voltage, and the preset programming voltage is smaller, so that in the couple effect of VT1, the VT0 has a smaller effect, so that the couple effect of VT1 is close to the couple effect of VT0, and further the distribution of VT0 is similar to the distribution of VT1, thereby avoiding a logic error caused by an excessively large difference between the turn-on threshold voltages of VT0 and other word lines, and further avoiding the phenomenon that the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read. It can be understood that, in a write operation, it is usually necessary to apply a program voltage for many times to complete all the write operations, and therefore, in a case where the write operation is not completed on the target program word line, a second program voltage is applied to the target program word line; the second programming voltage is: a sum of the first programming voltage and a first preset voltage increment; the write operation may be completed after multiple applications of incrementally increasing programming voltages.

Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in further detail below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention, but do not limit the invention to only some, but not all embodiments.
Example one
Referring to FIG. 2, a flow chart of a non-volatile memory write processing method is shown.
In the embodiment of the present invention, after extensive research, the inventor found that, among three consecutive word lines, the middle word line is subjected to capacitive coupling action (couple effect) of the word lines on two sides, so that the turn-on threshold voltage of the middle word line is increased, while only one side of the initial word line WL0 is provided with the word line, so that the capacitive coupling action of WL0 is weaker, and the distribution of the turn-on threshold voltage VT0 of WL0 is also different from that of the other word lines, for example, when a higher program voltage is applied to WL0, WL1 may obtain a narrower turn-on threshold voltage VT1 distribution curve based on the capacitive coupling action of WL0 and WL2, and WL0 is only subjected to WL1, so that the VT0 distribution of WL0 is far from the VT1 distribution of WL1, and the turn-on threshold voltage of WL0 is greater than the turn-on threshold voltage of WL1 after being read for a certain number of times, therefore, when data written in WL0 is read, it appears that WL0 should be at the turn-on logic, but because VT0 is large and cannot turn on, the written data cannot be correctly read.
Aiming at the discovery, when the nonvolatile memory is read, the embodiment of the invention determines a target programming word line in a memory block to be processed, determines the programming voltage compensation amount of the target programming word line, and applies a first programming voltage to the target programming word line at the beginning; and the first programming voltage is: the difference between the preset programming voltage and the compensation amount of the programming voltage, that is, the first programming voltage is obtained by subtracting the compensation amount of the programming voltage of the target programming word line from the preset programming voltage, and the preset programming voltage is smaller, so that in the couple effect of VT1, the VT0 has a smaller effect, so that the couple effect of VT1 is close to the couple effect of VT0, and further the distribution of VT0 is similar to the distribution of VT1, thereby avoiding a logic error caused by an excessively large difference between the turn-on threshold voltages of VT0 and other word lines, and further avoiding the phenomenon that the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read. It can be understood that, in a write operation, it is usually necessary to apply a program voltage for many times to complete all the write operations, and therefore, in a case where the write operation is not completed on the target program word line, a second program voltage is applied to the target program word line; the second programming voltage is: a sum of the first programming voltage and a first preset voltage increment; the write operation may be completed after multiple applications of incrementally increasing programming voltages. Specifically, the steps 101 to 104.
Step 101: when a write operation is executed on a memory block to be processed, a target programming word line of the memory block to be processed is determined.
When the write operation is executed on the to-be-stored block in the embodiment of the invention, the target programming word line can be jacked in the to-be-stored block according to the word line address corresponding to the write operation instruction.
Step 102: a program voltage compensation amount for the target program word line is determined.
In the embodiment of the invention, the coding voltage compensation amount can be obtained by testing the distribution of the conduction threshold voltage of each word line in advance according to practical application, the mapping relation between each word line and the corresponding coding voltage compensation amount can be stored in the register, and the programming voltage compensation amount of the target programming word line can be directly read in the register after the target programming word line is determined. Illustratively, taking 64 WLs included in the memory block to be processed, the 64 wordlines are wordlines sorted from WL0 to WL63 as an example, WL0 and WL63 are edge wordlines of the 64 wordlines, and WL0 and WL63 are subjected to a couple effect, which is different from the couple effect of WL1 to WL62, in practical application, the program voltage compensation amount of WL0 and WL63 may be higher than that of WL1 to WL62, and the program voltage compensation amount of WL0 and WL63 may be any value from 2 to 3 as an example.
In a specific application, the target encoding word line may be an edge word line (WL0 and WL63) or an intermediate word line (WL1 to WL62), and the corresponding program voltage compensation amount can be determined regardless of the target encoding word line.
In a specific application, the program voltage compensation amount corresponding to each word line in the memory block to be processed is determined by: determining the conduction threshold voltage distribution of each word line, and then setting the programming voltage compensation quantity of the word line (edge word line) with wider conduction threshold voltage distribution as a higher value and setting the programming voltage compensation quantity of the word line (edge word line) with narrower conduction threshold voltage distribution as a lower value; it can be understood that, according to the specific situation of the conduction threshold distribution, a corresponding relationship between the conduction threshold distribution and the coding voltage compensation amount may be established, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
Step 103: applying a first programming voltage to the target programming word line; the first programming voltage is: presetting the difference between the programming voltage and the compensation quantity of the programming voltage.
In an embodiment of the present invention, a first programming voltage is first applied to a target programming word line. The first programming voltage is a difference between the preset programming voltage and the compensation amount of the programming voltage, and it can be understood that the preset programming voltage may be an initial programming voltage conventionally used in the prior art.
For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the first programming voltage applied on WL0 may be a voltage that is smaller than the programming voltage in the prior art by VPGM _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET (programming voltage OFFSET), i.e. the first programming voltage is: VPGM _ INI-VPGM _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET.
In a specific application, the first programming voltage is a smaller voltage, so that in the couple effect of VT1, the effect of VT0 is smaller, so that the couple effect of VT1 is close to the couple effect of VT0, and further the distribution of VT0 is similar to the distribution of VT1, thereby avoiding a logic error caused by an excessively large difference between the turn-on threshold voltages of VT0 and other word lines, and further avoiding a phenomenon that the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read.
Step 104: applying a second programming voltage to the target programming word line if the target programming word line does not complete the write operation; the second programming voltage is: a sum of the first programming voltage and a first preset voltage increment.
In a specific application, because the nonvolatile memory may only complete a part of the write operation and not complete the entire write operation after applying the one-time programming voltage when programming, it is necessary to increase the programming voltage and continue the write operation in the case that the target programming word line does not complete the write operation, for example, as shown in fig. 3, taking the target programming word line as WL0 as an example, first applying a smaller first programming voltage VPGM _ ini-gm _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET to WL0, if the write operation is not completed, further applying VPGM _ ini minus VPGM _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET to WL0, and then adding the voltage of VPGM _ STEP, wherein VPGM _ STEP is an increment of the voltage, and if the staircase write operation is not completed, further applying VPGM _ ini minus VPGM _ ini _ 0/1/126/127_ OFFSET to 0, the voltage of two VPGM _ STEP are added, and so on, to complete the write operation.
As a specific implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes:
substep a1 (not shown): applying a third programming voltage to the target programming word line if the target programming word line does not complete the write operation; the third programming voltage is: a sum of the second programming voltage and a first preset voltage increment.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the program voltage applied to the target program word line may be: the writing operation is sequentially performed by only setting a first preset voltage increment since the first programming voltage is increased in steps by the first preset voltage increment.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, the to-be-processed memory block includes: 64 word lines WL, the 64 word lines being word lines ordered from WL0 to WL63, the initial word line comprising: WL 0. Taking the target programming word line as WL0 for example, first a smaller first programming voltage VPGM _ INII-VPGM _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET is applied to WL0, and if the write operation is not completed, VPGM _ INII minus VPGM _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET is further applied to WL0, then the voltage of VPGM _ STEP is added, wherein VPGM _ STEP is a STEP voltage increment, and if the write operation is not completed, VPGM _ INII minus VPGM _ WL0/1/126/127_ OFFSET is further applied to WL0, then the voltages of two VPGM _ STEPs are added, and so on, thereby completing the write operation.
As another specific implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes:
substep B1 (not shown): applying a fourth programming voltage to the target programming word line if the target programming word line does not complete the write operation; the fourth programming voltage is: a sum of the second programming voltage and a second preset voltage increment, wherein the first preset voltage increment is not equal to the second preset voltage increment.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the sub-step B1 may be two schemes in parallel with the sub-step a 1.
By sub-step B1, it is achieved that the voltage increment of each step is different when the program voltage is stepped up from the first program voltage, so that it is flexible to apply the program voltage each time.
It is to be understood that the value of the second preset voltage increment may be set by a person skilled in the art according to an actual application scenario, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited in this respect.
In practical application, a person skilled in the art may also set a third preset voltage increment, a fourth preset voltage increment, and the like according to actual requirements to flexibly increase the programming voltage, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
In a specific operation, the preset voltage increment may be set by modifying a value of a register for setting each voltage increment, or may be set in other manners, which is not specifically limited in this example of the present invention.
In summary, in the embodiment of the present invention, it is found that the reason why the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read in the prior art is: in three consecutive word lines, the middle word line is subjected to capacitive coupling action (couple effect) of the two word lines, so that the turn-on threshold voltage of the middle word line is increased, while only one side of the initial word line WL0 has a word line, so that WL0 is subjected to weaker capacitive coupling action, and the turn-on threshold voltage VT0 of WL0 is also different from the other word lines, for example, when a higher programming voltage is applied to WL0, WL1 can obtain a narrower turn-on threshold voltage VT1 distribution curve based on the capacitive coupling action of WL0 and WL2, while WL0 is subjected to only WL1, so that the VT0 distribution of WL0 is more different from the VT1 distribution of WL1, and the turn-on threshold voltage of WL0 after being read for a certain number of times is greater than the turn-on threshold voltage of 1, therefore, when data written in WL0 is read, WL0 should be in turn-on logic, but VT0 is not turned on, so that a phenomenon occurs in which written data cannot be correctly read. Therefore, when the nonvolatile memory is read, a target programming word line is determined in a memory block to be processed, the programming voltage compensation amount of the target programming word line is determined, and a first programming voltage is applied to the target programming word line initially; and the first programming voltage is: the difference between the preset programming voltage and the compensation amount of the programming voltage, that is, the first programming voltage is obtained by subtracting the compensation amount of the programming voltage of the target programming word line from the preset programming voltage, and the preset programming voltage is smaller, so that in the couple effect of VT1, the VT0 has a smaller effect, so that the couple effect of VT1 is close to the couple effect of VT0, and further the distribution of VT0 is similar to the distribution of VT1, thereby avoiding a logic error caused by an excessively large difference between the turn-on threshold voltages of VT0 and other word lines, and further avoiding the phenomenon that the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read. It can be understood that, in a write operation, it is usually necessary to apply a program voltage for many times to complete all the write operations, and therefore, in a case where the write operation is not completed on the target program word line, a second program voltage is applied to the target program word line; the second programming voltage is: a sum of the first programming voltage and a first preset voltage increment; the write operation may be completed after multiple applications of incrementally increasing programming voltages.

Optionally, the to-be-processed storage block includes: 64 word lines WL, the 64 word lines being word lines ordered from WL0 to WL 63.
In summary, in the embodiment of the present invention, it is found that the reason why the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read in the prior art is: in three consecutive word lines, the middle word line is subjected to capacitive coupling action (couple effect) of the two word lines, so that the turn-on threshold voltage of the middle word line is increased, while only one side of the initial word line WL0 has a word line, so that WL0 is subjected to weaker capacitive coupling action, and the turn-on threshold voltage VT0 of WL0 is also different from the other word lines, for example, when a higher programming voltage is applied to WL0, WL1 can obtain a narrower turn-on threshold voltage VT1 distribution curve based on the capacitive coupling action of WL0 and WL2, while WL0 is subjected to only WL1, so that the VT0 distribution of WL0 is more different from the VT1 distribution of WL1, and the turn-on threshold voltage of WL0 after being read for a certain number of times is greater than the turn-on threshold voltage of 1, therefore, when data written in WL0 is read, WL0 should be in turn-on logic, but VT0 is not turned on, so that a phenomenon occurs in which written data cannot be correctly read. Therefore, when the nonvolatile memory is read, a target programming word line is determined in a memory block to be processed, the programming voltage compensation amount of the target programming word line is determined, and a first programming voltage is applied to the target programming word line initially; and the first programming voltage is: the difference between the preset programming voltage and the compensation amount of the programming voltage, that is, the first programming voltage is obtained by subtracting the compensation amount of the programming voltage of the target programming word line from the preset programming voltage, and the preset programming voltage is smaller, so that in the couple effect of VT1, the VT0 has a smaller effect, so that the couple effect of VT1 is close to the couple effect of VT0, and further the distribution of VT0 is similar to the distribution of VT1, thereby avoiding a logic error caused by an excessively large difference between the turn-on threshold voltages of VT0 and other word lines, and further avoiding the phenomenon that the written data in the initial word line WL0 cannot be correctly read. It can be understood that, in a write operation, it is usually necessary to apply a program voltage for many times to complete all the write operations, and therefore, in a case where the write operation is not completed on the target program word line, a second program voltage is applied to the target program word line; the second programming voltage is: a sum of the first programming voltage and a first preset voltage increment; the write operation may be completed after multiple applications of incrementally increasing programming voltages.
