Abstract
An apparatus for page mode programming of an EEPROM cell array applications is described. The apparatus comprises a control gate potential control means and a bit line potential control means. The control gate potential control means is connected to the control gate of the EEPROM cell to select the potential for the control gate of the EEPROM cell, while the bit line potential control means is connected to the bit line of the EEPROM cell to select the potential for the bit line. A bit line of the EEPROM cell is first selected by a bit line control signal, then a control gate control signal determines whether provides the high voltage to the control gate of the EEPROM cell.
