Among them, for each NMOS transistor In other words, their drains are connected to the gates', which results in similar operating performance of a diode element. Moreover, since the tail end of the voltage regulation circuit 20 is in a grounded state, the voltage is boosted by the charge. The voltage output from the circuit 30 is adjusted by the voltage adjustment circuit 20 to generate an operation voltage Vne equal to the voltage drop of the entire string of voltage adjustment circuits 20. That is, 'the input operation voltage Vne of the flash memory element 10 , Will be equal to the breakdown voltage Vbd of the diode 22 plus the starting voltage of the n caged transistors.

Regardless of the indications made by the manufacturer, the test is performed by testing the crystal same-pressure device 50 and the electrical test voltage Vme connected in series. It is worth noting that the drift and the possible loop operating voltage Vne, which all meet the relevant process parameters in the relevant process, will still produce a Gaussian-like curve distribution. The voltage Vme is used to determine whether the service life of the test strip 54 is consistent with the reference photos. It can be successfully said that the critical section B) of the boundary test. When it is longer, the estimated j 丄 is, for example, for actual operation. The crystal with a voltage of VneuVne2 is tested with a low test voltage Vme, and the erase operation is performed. But for the wafer with operating voltage Vnel, it is clear that sector A will be better than the wafer with operating voltage Vne2 (with Pro = 2. In other words, only these two kinds of wafers can pass through Pro, but when in use, Wafers with critical section B will maintain their service life. Therefore, if the wafers that can be subjected to the critical removal test f meet the same critical section, the service life of these wafers can be further improved.

Explanation of the invention (7) _ 一 " Can 'can make the bypass circuit 124 on the transistor located at the tail end of the whole string of components. The bypass circuit 124 has a changeover switch 126. When the backup changeover switch 126 is turned on, the output voltage Vnee of the power-saving paste can be reduced by the effect of bypassing the voltage drop. When the second switch is off = the switch is off_, f] The wheel-out voltage Vne of the voltage adjustment circuit 12 will restore the original level. In this way, by controlling the switch 126, the size of Vne can be effectively adjusted. In addition, since each of the 0s transistors (jn to Mn) has a large initial voltage value of about 0.4 to 0.5 volts. Therefore, by determining the number of transistors included in the bypass circuit 124, it is possible to accurately control the reduction of the output voltage Vne. For example, when the operator wants to adjust the output voltage Vne to reduce it by about 1 volt, a bypass circuit 124 may be formed between the leg 0s transistor connected in series with each other and the heart end. In this way, when a critical erasure test is performed on the produced wafer 100, the bypass circuit 124 can be turned on, and the output voltage Vne of the voltage adjustment circuit 120 can be reduced to a predetermined level as the test voltage. Vme is used. At this time, for each wafer 100, although subject to differences in process conditions and environment, its Vne will show a Gaussian curve distribution, but because the size of the voltage drop can be controlled by the bypass circuit 124, For all the chips 10 (), the voltage difference between the output voltage Vne and the test voltage vme will be maintained at a constant f 丨 value. Please refer to the sixth figure, which shows that when the critical erasure test is performed, the test voltage Vme of the chip 100 will have a Gaussian distribution with the same shape as the output voltage Vne. And, for a wafer with an operating voltage of Vnel, the critical section C tested will be the critical section 1 of the wafer with an operating voltage of Vne2. 1) U / / 5, Invention Description (8), etc. For the critical 100 wafers that passed the critical trial F, compared to * mt, the critical £ segments are all equal, so the disaster I life will be more average. The advantage of using the #method with the practical method of the present invention that does not require the actual operation of the wafer to perform the critical # erase method for critically erasing the produced wafer is, for example, in the present invention, because The voltage Vme used to carry out the threshold comes from the voltage regulating circuit in the chip, which is to use the extra high-voltage device to generate voltage like in traditional technology. Secondly, compared to traditional testing technology, due to the method and circuit design The gap between the test voltage Vme and the chip voltage Vne can be fixed, so that when the process parameters are changed, the relevant tolerance can be made uniform during the test, and the reliability can be tested and improved. Although the invention is illustrated as above with a preferred example, it is not intended to limit the spirit and the inventive substance of the invention, but only to this embodiment. Therefore, all modifications made within the spirit and scope of the invention should be changed. It is included in the scope of patent application described below.
