Single poly nonvolatile memory cells, arrays thereof, and methods of operating the same
Abstract:
A single poly NVM cell includes a first N-type well region and a second N-type well region spaced apart from each other by a P-type semiconductor layer, a first active region and a second active region disposed in the first N-type well region and the second N-type well region, respectively, a P-channel floating gate transistor including a floating gate disposed in the first active region, a P-type drain region disposed in the first active region, and a P-type junction region disposed in the first active region, wherein the floating gate extends to over the second active region, a P-channel read selection transistor including a read selection gate electrode disposed in the first active region, the P-type junction region disposed in the first active region, and a P-type source region disposed in the first active region, and an interconnection line connecting the first N-type well region to the P-type source region of the P-channel read selection transistor.
