Abstract
Some results from qualification test procedures on 64 k (4 designs) and 256 k (4 designs) EEPROM as well as 1 M (4 designs) flash memories are presented. Electrical characterization, various environmental tests, and reliability tests on up to about 220 devices per design were performed. Different defect and failed devices were detected and failure analysis (whenever possible) was accomplished. The results indicate enhancements of the quality and reliability of newer NV-memory generations but the levels of other standard memories (DRAM, SRAM) are not reached yet.<>
