“…In order to determine the number of those singular or extrinsic cells, responsible for the hump, several classical approaches exist. Historically, as in [7,9], it has been shown that the transconductance of an EEPROM CAST can be rebuilt from a cell model transconductance, an assumed Gaussian distribution of V T for intrinsic cells and a singular Dirac distribution for extrinsic ones (assuming that each cell in the CAST has the same transcharacteristic shape as the model one). Moreover, a subtle study of the polarization of the select transistor allows us to extract the standard deviation of the distribution density of the intrinsic cell: the select polarization influencing the transconductance peak of an unitary cell (for details of the structure, see for instance [3,4]).…”
