Abstract :
This paper addresses challenges with improvements made over previous NAND generations to achieve high performance while maintaining a low fail-bit count (FBC) and cost savings from an improved architecture and tightly packed peripheral circuits. Air gap [2,3] technology further improves write throughput by reducing neighbor interference and WL RC. A toggle mode 400Mb/s I/O interface reduces system overhead and enhances overall performance.
