20130092995 | ELECTRICAL ERASABLE PROGRAMMABLE READ-ONLY MEMORY AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - An electrical erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) including a floating transistor formed on a semiconductor substrate and a tunneling transistor formed on a semiconductor substrate and configured to erase electrons trapped in the floating transistor. The tunneling transistor has a source junction region and a drain junction region that are integrally joined by lateral diffusion. The EPROM maintains a small cell size without any additional mask process, and is useable as an MTP EEPROM because electrical erasure is enabled. In addition, the adjustment of the width of a gate constituting the tunneling transistor ensures an improved degree of freedom to adjust an erasure voltage can be enhanced. | 04-18-2013 |
