    Abstract: A matrix of EEPROM memory cells having a double polysilicon level of MOS technology and being arranged into rows and columns is monolithically integrated on a substrate of semiconductor material. Each cell comprises, in series, a transistor (2) of the floating gate type which includes two layers of polysilicon (5 and 8) superposed on each other and separated by an intervening layer (7) of a dielectric material, and a selection transistor (3) having a gate (13) which comprises a first layer of polysilicon (5). The gates (13) of the selection transistors (3) in one row of said matrix are connected electrically together by a selection line (c2) comprising a second layer of polysilicon (8) overlying the first layer (5). The intermediate layer of dielectric material (7) is also partly interposed between the first and second layers of polysilicon (5 and 8) such that the two layers (5 and 8) are in contact at at least one zone (21) of said selection line (c2). Preferably, the contact zone (21) is formed over field oxide regions (20) and is away from the edges of the selection line (c2)
    The matrix can advantageously be fabricated by a process of the self-aligned type, without making the process any more complicated.

    Abstract: A circuit structure for a matrix of EEPROM memory cells, being of a type which comprises a matrix of cells (2) including plural rows (3) and columns (4), with each row (3) being provided with a word line (WL) and a control gate line (CG) and each column (4) having a bit line (BL); the bit lines (BL), moreover, are gathered into groups or bytes (9) of simultaneously addressable adjacent lines. Each cell (2) in the matrix incorporates a floating gate transistor (12) which is coupled to a control gate (8), connected to the control gate line (CG), and is connected serially to a selection transistor (5); also, the cells (2) of each individual byte (9) share their respective source areas (6), which areas are structurally independent for each byte (9) and are led to a corresponding source addressing line (SL) extending along a matrix column (7).
