ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a circuit of boosting a voltage which comprises a driver circuit for generating a kick signal for driving word lines via row decoder circuits in an array of flash memory cells during read and program modes of operation. The driver circuit makes both electrodes of a large booster capacitor have the same voltage in order to allow a small charge pump to further pump up the word line voltage during programming.
