6 Memory
6.15 NandFlash3 IV-Erase-IV: NAND flash memory cell Id-Vg, Erase, Id-Vg
(A.03.10)
[Supported Analyzer]
B1500A
[Description]
Measures the Id-Vg characteristics of NAND-type flash memory cell, performs the data erase operation,
measures the Id-Vg characteristics again, and plots the both Id-Vg characteristics on a graph.
Before the Id-Vg measurements, the initial pulse will be applied to the device under test.
