Abstract

In dynamic memories, generally a fluctuation of 10% of the nominal value of the supply voltage is allowed. Since, when reading, the input gate is applied to the supply, this fluctuation in the supply results in 20% of fluctuation in the charge packet formed below the input gate. In order to eliminate this fluctuation and hence to increase the permitted interference margin for other interference sources, a voltage stabilization circuit is arranged between the supply voltage and the input gate so that the fluctuation in the supply also occurs at the source zone, as a result of which the size of the charge packet becomes independent of the supply. For the voltage stabilization circuit, use may advantageously be made of a band gap reference.
