A novel capacitive-coupled floating gate antenna protection design and its application to prevent in-process charging effects for 3D NAND flash memory

In-process charging effect is found to deteriorate the initial Vt distribution of 3D NAND Flash. In this work, we propose a novel antenna protection circuit using a capacitive coupled floating gate (CCFG) CMOS circuit that can be applied to the word line (WL), string select (SSL) and ground select transistor (GSL) decoders.
