Patent EP-0987715-A1 (EP)
Inventor: PASOTTI MARCO
IPC: G11C11/56
Filed: 1998-09-15
Abstract: The method includes restoring the charge lost from memory
cells, such as to restore the original voltage levels, within
a time equivalent to the retention time. The decision
concerning when the memory is to be restored is taken for
example when the memory is switched on, based on the time
elapsed since the previous programming/restoration, or based
on the difference between the present threshold voltage of
the reference cells and the original threshold voltage of the
(suitably stored) reference cells, or when predetermined
operating conditions occur. This makes it possible to prolong
the life of nonvolatile memories, in particular of multilevel
type, wherein the retention time decreases as the number of
levels (bits/cell) is increased.

compound metal hydroxide of polyhedral crystal form
represented by the following general formula (1):
 m(M a O b )·n(Q d O e )·cH 2 O 
[wherein M and Q are different metal elements; Q is a metal
element which belongs to a group selected from IVa, Va,
VIa, VIIa, VIII, Ib and IIb groups in the periodic table;
