A method of forming a capacitor for use as a charge pump with flash memory, comprising: (a) concurrently forming polysilicon gates on a semiconductor body in a core region and a polysilicon middle capacitor plate in a peripheral region, (b) forming a first dielectric layer over the polysilicon gates and the middle capacitor plate, (c) planarizing the first dielectric layer to expose a top portion of the polysilicon gates and a top portion of the middle capacitor plate, (d) forming a second dielectric layer over the top portion of the middle capacitor layer, (e) concurrently forming patterning a second polysilicon layer in the core region and a third capacitor plate in the periphery region and (f) connecting the third capacitor plate to the source/drain well.
