A macromodel for FLOTOX EEPROM

A macromodel for FLOTOX EEPROM cell is presented. The model is suitable for DC and transient simulations and programming/erasing cycles. The modeled characteristics include threshold voltage changes, drain current, tunneling current, and charge retention. Model simulations are presented and compared with measurement data available in the literature.
