Picture of 1Gbit NAND Charge Trap Flash

Numonyx inserted the Charge Trap cell into a 1Gbit 1.8V NAND device adapting cell pitch at row and column decoders thanks to an advanced copper metallizationThe device includes 1.8 billion cells but only 1 G is addressable due to the re-use of an existing cell design.
