Abstract

1517206 Transistor memory circuits SIEMENS AG 21 Oct 1975 [22 Oct 1974] 43088/75 Heading H3T A storage element comprises a field effect transistor 1 having its source electrode connected to one electrode of a metal-dielectric-semiconductor capacitor 2, the dielectric of which contains chargeable traps, its drain electrode connected to a bit line 31, and its gate electrode connected to a word line 10, the other electrode of the capacitor being connected to a write-in line 20. To write a «1» transistor 1 is turned on by a signal on line 10, to bring its source to -15v. A -30v signal is then applied to line 20 to form an inversion layer at the surface of the substrate. If a «0» is to be stored then only a depletion layer is present at the silicon surface of MNOS capacitor 2.
