Abstract
A system for programming a nonvolatile memory includes a plurality of memory cells each having a field effect transistor with a control gate, a drain, a source, and a charge storage region, voltage sources for applying preset voltages pertinent to a threshold level to the source, the drain, and the control gate in each of the memory cells, a monitor for monitoring a current flowing through a channel in each of the memory cells, and a controller for stopping at least one of the voltages applied to the source, the drain, and the control gate in each of the memory cells when the monitor senses that the current flowing through the channel in the memory cell reaches a reference current.
