The variations on the basic floating gate nonvolatile cell structure that have been used in commercially available devices are described. The various reliability considerations involved in these devices are explored. Retention and endurance failures and the interaction between endurance, retention, and standard semiconductor failure mechanisms in determining the device failure rate are covered. How to specify and perform engineering verification of retention of data stored in the arrays is described. Effects that limit the endurance of the arrays are discussed. The specification and engineering verification of endurance are described. The more common features incorporated into the arrays and methods for testing these complex products efficiently are addressed. The effects that various forms of ionizing radiation may have on floating gate arrays and approaches to test for these effects are covered. The use of floating gate cells in nonmemory applications is briefly considered. 517 $aIEEE Std 1005-1991 606 $aIntegrated circuits$xVery large scale integration$xTesting 606 $aSemiconductor storage devices 615 0$aIntegrated circuits$xVery large scale integration$xTesting. 615 0$aSemiconductor storage devices. 676 $a621.3973 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aDOCUMENT 912 $a996280849703316 996 $aIEEE Std 1005-1991$93646578 997 $aUNISA
